Crud deposition in KER loops at pH 10 LiOH [PDF]

open access: yes, 1963
One of the problems which may be encountered in the operation of NPR, or of any similar pressurized-water reactor, is the deposition of crud in the reactor core, particularly on the surfaces of the fuel elements. This crud consists primarily of iron oxides resulting from the corrosion of the piping. It has generally been found to deposit preferentially

An integrated framework for the prediction of axial offset anomaly in pressurized water reactors [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Fluid Engineering
During the operation of pressurized water reactors, erosion products can be deposited on the surfaces of the fuel rods, and these deposits lead to enrichment of boric acid, which influences the power distribution along the axial direction and results in ...

BOTANI: High-fidelity multiphysics model for boron chemistry in CRUD deposits

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
We develop a new high-fidelity multiphysics model to simulate boron chemistry in the porous Chalk River Unidentified Deposit (CRUD) deposits. Heat transfer, capillary flow, solute transport, and chemical reactions are fully coupled. The evaporation of coolant in the deposits is included in governing equations modified by the volume-averaged assumption ...

‘Elbow grease and yellow soap’: Housework time in working‐class households in late‐nineteenth and early twentieth‐century Britain

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Housework is central to feminist calls for recognition of women's work, economic histories explaining the sexual division of labour, and claims regarding the progressive role of scientific knowledge. Yet little is known about the time it actually took. We address this lacuna.

CRUD growth on fuel rod bundles under oscillatory conditions

open access: yesHe jishu
BackgroundOscillatory conditions significantly affect the thermal-hydraulic characteristics of floating reactors, leading to changes in the growth of chalk river unidentified deposit (CRUD).PurposeThis study aims to investigates CRUD growth on fuel rod ...

The Challenges of Domestic Wastewater/Sewage Systems for Māori Communities

open access: yesKōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
The development of domestic wastewater systems in contemporary Aotearoa New Zealand has presented a significant challenge for Māori communities. While those communities have supported attempts to address the pollution of land and waterways through modern treatment methods, the solution has included continuing discharges of sometimes untreated and often

Experimental validation of a physics-based CRUD growth model using dedicated PWR loop tests

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
The model previously developed to predict CRUD growth during the operation of PWRs was validated through the benchmark study for CRUD loop experiments.

Will you teach me? From seriousness to sincerity with apprentice phenomenography

open access: yesThe Australian Journal of Anthropology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 77-86, April 2026.
Abstract By pushing for adequate modes of conceptualisation, ontological turn theorists have made significant headway in the attempt to take seriously ontological worlds that are typically considered irreconcilable to those of the Western intellectual project.

High-Resolution Multiphysics Analysis of CRUD Effects in Reactor Assemblies

open access: yesPRX Energy
This study develops a high-fidelity multiphysics coupling framework to systematically investigate the impact of Chalk River unidentified deposits (CRUD) on pressurized-water-reactor (PWR) assemblies, integrating neutronics, thermal hydraulics, and ...

The Somatic Crowd: The Bodily and Sensory Experience of Reform Crowds in Britain, c.1816–48*

open access: yesParliamentary History, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 72-89, February 2026.
Abstract This article considers the roles that the body and the senses played in shaping the dynamics of 19th‐century reform crowds in Britain. Acoustics, terrain, timing, weather and corporeal issues of hunger, thirst and calls of nature influenced the timing and location of events and, along with the physical aspects of accessibility, visibility and ...
