Assessment of TMSR-500 Shutdown Capability
Atom Indonesia, 2022 The molten salt reactor (MSR) is a generation IV reactor with liquid fuel having nearly zero excess reactivity. Due to the very low excess reactivity, it requires a small number of control rods worth to shut down the reactor.

Thermodiffusion in binary liquids: the role of irreversibility [PDF]
, 2013 We study thermal diffusion in binary mixtures in the framework of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. Our formal result displays the role of partial enthalpies and Onsager's generalized mobilities.

Retrofitting Precincts for Heatwave Resilience: Challenges and Barriers in Australian Context
Challenges, 2015 As the frequency and intensity of heatwaves are growing in Australia, strategies to combat heat are becoming more vital. Cities are exposed to urban heat islands (UHIs) due to excess urbanisation.

EcoHealth, 2015 Although heatwave-related excess mortality and morbidity have been widely studied, results are not comparable spatially and often longitudinally because of different heatwave definitions applied. The excess heat factor (EHF) quantifies heatwave intensity relative to the local climate, enabling cross-regional comparisons.

The positron excess and supersymmetric dark matter
, 2002 Using a new instrument, the HEAT collaboration has confirmed the excess of cosmic ray positrons that they first detected in 1994. We explore the possibility that this excess is due to the annihilation of neutralino dark matter in the galactic halo.

Heat capacity of square-well fluids of variable width
, 2003 We have obtained by Monte Carlo NVT simulations the constant-volume excess heat capacity of square-well fluids for several temperatures, densities and potential widths.

Modelling and experimental validation of a fluidized bed reactor freeboard region: application to natural gas combustion [PDF]
, 2007 A theoretical and experimental study of natural gas-air mixture combustion in a fluidized bed of sand particles is presented. The operating temperatures are lower than a critical temperature of 800 °C above which the combustion occurs in the vicinity of ...

Burnable poison optimized on a long-life, annular HTGR core
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022 The present work presents analysis results of the core design optimizations for an annular, prismatic High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) with passive decay-heat removal features.

Dipole-interacting Fermionic Dark Matter in positron, antiproton, and gamma-ray channels
, 2013 Cosmic ray signals from dipole-interacting dark matter annihilation are considered in the positron, antiproton and photon channels. The predicted signals in the positron channel could nicely account for the excess of positron fraction from Fermi LAT ...
