Uranium-water power reactors have a complicated core composition, and temperature changes, the influence of which exceeds that of delayed neutrons several times, are important in the reactivity balance of such reactors. The accuracy with which the temperature effect of the reactivity can be predicted by calculation techniques depends greatly upon the extent to which these techniques correctly describe the physics of the development of the process and … the accuracy decreases considerably in proportion to the complexity of the core composition. 1, record 1, English, - temperature%20effect

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Bien souvent avec ce terme le dégustateur fait allusion à l'équilibre du vin. Ce terme sous-entend ainsi une belle harmonie entre fraîcheur, tanins et rondeur. Des tanins fins sont des tanins bien fondus souvent qualifiés de veloutés. A l'opposé nous qualifierons les tanins de «asséchants» ou «astringents». 2, record 2, French, - fin
