Implementation of Solar Salt Properties Into ARIANT and Simulation of Pressurized Loss of Forced Circulation in a High Temperature Gas-Cooled Small Modular Reactor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Small modular reactors (SMRs) are actively being considered for use in Canada. Some proposed SMRs can make use of solar salt as an intermediate coolant for a heat storage system. The development of thermalhydraulic simulation ...
Development of Analysis Tools for Heat Pipes Used in Small Modular Reactors: Sodium Property Correlations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Advanced small modular reactors strive to improve reactor safety through increased utilization of passive heat transport and safety systems. An innovative means of meeting this design goal is to use alkali metal heat pipes ...
Development of Analysis Tools for Heat Pipes Used in the Core Cooling of Small Modular Reactors: Potassium Property Correlations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Alkali metal heat pipes can be used for core cooling in advanced micro- and small modular reactors. This article provides a detailed review of currently available saturation property correlations for potassium that can be ...
