Abstract: With wide-pulse neutron injection the fission chain fluctuates statistically.A calculation approach is presented, in which numerical solutions of the statistical distribution Wn equations are disassembled and then synthesized.It makes the computation suitable for generalized conditions (with arbitrary time distribution,zero time (t0) injection probability distribution P(t0) and number probability distribution S(n) etc.).The equivalent conditions in practical physical models are discussed and expanded from single-medium to multi-medium.In addition, the average computing formulae for required parameters in solving Wn equations are given as well.

Key words: wide pulse, outer neutron source, statistical fluctuation, fission chain
