A Lattice-Based Monte Carlo Evaluation of Canada Deuterium Uranium-6 Safety Parameters

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2016
Important safety parameters such as the fuel temperature coefficient (FTC) and the power coefficient of reactivity (PCR) of the CANada Deuterium Uranium (CANDU-6) reactor have been evaluated using the Monte Carlo method.

Influence of the structural state and crystallographic texture of Zr-2.5% Nb alloy samples on the anisotropy of their thermal expansion

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2021
Zirconium remains the main structural material for thermal reactors due to the small capture cross section of thermal neutrons. In the period of stricter safety requirements for reactors with a simultaneous increase in operating parameters, predicting ...

Quality of Local Rice Genotypes and Their Improvement With Urea and Fermented Rice Husk Ash

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The quality and nutritional value of rice (Oryza sativa L.) are important for its economic value and for addressing malnutrition in developing countries. This study aims to identify local rice genotypes exhibiting high quality and high protein across various agroecosystems, and to increase rice protein content (PC) through the application of urea and ...

Transmuting the Arid: Fission‐Powered Visions—Unlocking Ghana’s Aquatic Destiny Through Nuclear Desalination

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Water scarcity poses a mounting constraint on Ghana’s socioeconomic development, intensified by climate‐driven hydrological variability, rapid urbanization, and industrial expansion. This study presents a Ghana‐specific techno‐economic and policy‐integrated assessment of nuclear‐powered seawater desalination, moving beyond generic applications of ...

Thermalhydraulics of advanced 37-element fuel bundle in crept pressure tubes

EPJ Nuclear Sciences & Technologies, 2016
A CANDU-6 reactor, which has 380 fuel channels of a pressure tube type, is suffering from aging or creep of the pressure tubes. Most of the aging effects for the CANDU primary heat transport system were originated from the horizontal crept pressure tubes.

Measurement of Velocity and Temperature Profiles in the Scaled-Down CANDU-6 Moderator Tank [PDF]

Volume 4: Thermal Hydraulics, 2013
We are planning to construct a scaled-down moderator test facility to simulate the CANDU-6 moderator circulation phenomena during steady state operation and accident conditions at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. In the present work a preliminary experiment using a 1/40 scaled-down moderator tank has been performed to identify the potential ...

Analysis of the Effective Dose to the Public Living Around Korean Nuclear Power Plants After the Monitoring of Carbon‐14 Discharge Was Implemented

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 5810-5820, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Radioactive effluents discharged by nuclear power plants (NPPs) are classified into two categories: gas and liquid effluents, based on their source and discharge pathways. During the operation of these facilities, both types of effluents are released into the environment.

A Review of the Scaling Study of the CANDU-6 Moderator Circulation Test Facility

Journal of Power and Energy Engineering, 2014
Following the previous relevant works [1]-[3], a scaling analysis is performed to derive a set of scaling criteria which were thought to be suitable for reproducing the major thermal-hydraulic phenomena in a scaled-down CANDU moderator tank similar to that in a prototype power plant during a full power steady state condition.
