A nonstationary two-dimensional model of numerical calculation of heat transfer in the core of a WWER-1200 reactor has been developed on the basis of representation of the core as a porous body. Nonstationary regimes occurring in the presence of local growth in the heat release in the cage and resulting in the reorganization of the flow field in the core have been modeled.
