Aspects of calculating the temperature for the graphite stack of the RBMK reactor

The effect of thermal contact resistance in the elements of the graphite stack of the RBMK reactor on moderator temperature is studied. It is shown that estimation of the thermal contact resistance improves the accuracy of calculation of the graphite moderator temperature.
