The solution is applied to the kinetics equations in the presence of different types of reactivities, and is compared with other methods. This method is, also used to analyze reactivity accidents in thermal reactor at start-up, and full power conditions for control rods withdrawal. Thermal reactor (HTR-M) is fuelled by uranium-235. This analysis presents the effect of negative temperature feedback, and the positive reactivity of control rods withdrawal. Power, temperature pulse, and reactivity following the reactivity accidents are calculated using programming language (FORTRAN), and (MATLAB) Codes. The results are compared with previous works and satisfactory agreement is found.
