An Improved Heat Flux Partitioning Model of Nucleate Boiling Under Saturated Pool Boiling Condition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An improved heat flux partitioning model of pool boiling is proposed in this study to predict the material-conjugated pool boiling curve. The fundamental rationale behind the improved model is that heat convection is only ...
Design and Analysis of a Free-Piston Stirling Engine for Microreactor Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With the development of microreactors, a free-piston Stirling engine (FPSE) is an excellent candidate to support the development of microreactors. Based on the advantages of microreactors such as the compact design, ...
Molten Salt Pump Journal-Bearings Dynamic Characteristics Under Hydrodynamic Lubrication Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A reliable high-temperature molten salt pump is critical for the development of Fluoride-salt-cooled, High-temperature Reactors (FHRs). By supporting the rotating journal, the appropriate journal bearing can ensure that ...
