Abstract
The FORTRAN IV digital computer code SHUTDOWN uses a trial and error procedure to find the optimum method of altering the reactor power before shutdown for an outage of a given desired duration. Exact optimum solutions are not found by this method but the solutions that are found can be used to improve reactor operations.
