Abstract: Future coalfired steam turbines promise increased efficiency and low emissions. However, this comes at the expense of increased thermal load from higher inlet steam temperatures and pressures leading to severe creep that ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Abstract: High-power permanent magnet synchronous motors (HPMSM) face extremely harsh cooling conditions due to their high power and complex structure. An efficient cooling system is pivotal to ensuring the safety and operational ...

Abstract: In this paper, P92 steel was subjected to thermal aging treatment at 650 °C for 800 h, and then basic mechanical and creep–fatigue test was performed. The creep–fatigue cycle response trend is consistent before and after ...
