RISOptimized Moderator Design and Analysis of a Pin-Type Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Reactor Based on Reactor Monte Carlo Code
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study analyzed an yttrium hydride (YH2) moderated supercritical carbon dioxide cooled reactor loaded with pin-type, beryllium oxide diluted oxide fuel elements to reduce the critical enrichment. The impact of the YH2 ...
Neutronic and Thermal-Fluidic Analyses for an Additive Manufactured Reactor With SiC Matrix and TRISO Particle Fuel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) is a transformational digital manufacturing technology featured with rapidity, customizability, precision, and economy, which is fundamentally altering the way components are designed and ...
Neutronic and Thermal-Mechanical Coupling Schemes for Heat Pipe-Cooled Reactor Designs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Space fission power systems can enable ambitious solar-system and deep-space science missions. The heat pipe-cooled reactor is one of the most potential candidates for near-term space power supply, featuring safety, ...
