(2017-07-18)In the event that a nuclear core cooling pipe ruptures, a loss of coolant accident (LOCA) scenario begins. Precipitates from dissolved ions can form and cause the emergency backup pumps to fail. Two aluminum products, an ...
-
(2017-07-06)The Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) system found in certain boiling water reactor (BWR) power plants is intended to provide make-up coolant to the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) when it is isolated from the power-producing ...
-
(2012-07-16)This work focuses on both high fidelity experimental and numerical thermal hydraulic studies and advanced frequency decomposition methods. The major contribution of this work is a proposed method for spatio-temporal ...
-
(2023-08-08)Steam is exhausted from a turbine into the BWR suppression pool as a means to remove energy from the primary loop during operation of the Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) system. If most of the energy is deposited in ...
-
(2019-04-25)Thermal hydraulics in nuclear engineering including multifluid, multiphase flow phenomena is indispensable because it is the most crucial mechanism of energy transfer in the current conventional nuclear plants, and it also ...
