RISEffects of Axial Deformation Load on In-Plane Instability of U-Shaped Bellows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The in-plane instability pressure of U-shaped bellows can be calculated by Expansion Joint Manufacturers Association standards formulas where only the internal pressure load is taken into account, ...
Comparative Study on Reactor Pressure Vessel Failure Behaviors With Various Geometric Discontinuities Under Severe Accident
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The so-called “in-vessel retention (IVR)” is a basic strategy for severe accident (SA) mitigation of some advanced nuclear power plants (NPPs). The IVR strategy is to keep the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) intact under SA ...
Investigation on Structural Behaviors of Reactor Pressure Vessel With the Effects of Critical Heat Flux and Internal Pressure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The so-called “in-vessel retention (IVR)” is a severe accident management strategy, which is widely adopted in most advanced nuclear power plants. The IVR mitigation is assumed to be able to arrest the degraded melting ...
Reliability Study on a New Integrity Pressure Relief Device in Nonrefillable Steel Gas Cylinder
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new integrity pressure relief device in a nonrefillable steel gas cylinder is proposed and tested. Instead of a rupture disk welded on the opening of the head, the new integrity pressure relief device is machined by ...
The Influence of Crust Layer on Reactor Pressure Vessel Failure Under Pressurized Core Meltdown Accident
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The so-called in-vessel retention (IVR) was considered as a severe accident management strategy and had been certified by Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in U.S. as a standard measure for severe accident management ...
