RISInvestigation of Natural Convection Heat Transfer Phenomena in Packed Beds: Lead Way Toward New Nuclear Fuel Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The ability of coated particles of enriched uranium dioxide fuel encased in graphite to discontinue nuclear fission reaction without human action in the case of complete loss of cooling is a vital safety measure over ...
Introducing Passive Nuclear Safety in Water-Cooled Reactors: Numerical Simulation and Validation of Natural Convection Heat Transfer and Transport in Packed Beds of Heated Microspheres
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The development of an accident tolerant nuclear fuel for water-cooled reactors would redefined the status of these reactors from traditional active safety to passive safety systems. As a possible solution toward enhancing ...
