Modelling and Simulation in Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Small leaks within a nuclear power plant can escalate into significant leaks, leading to plant shutdown and substantial losses if operational limits are exceeded. Thus, the demand for systems that can rapidly detect minor leaks is increasing. Current research seeks to address this need.

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Efficient steam condensation is crucial for safe nuclear power plant (NPP) operations, preventing pressure buildup, overheating, and the release of radioactive materials. However, the presence of noncondensable gases (NCGs), such as air, nitrogen, hydrogen, or helium, can hinder the condensation process by creating a thermal resistance layer that ...

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.After the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in 2011, the performance of nuclear fuel during accidents became a matter of great concern. To address this, a new type of fuel technology called accident‐tolerant fuel (ATF) has been developed with the goal of enhancing the ability of light water reactors (LWRs) to withstand severe accident conditions. Iron‐
