Antineutrino flux from the Laguna Verde Nuclear Power Plant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a calculation of the antineutrino flux produced by the reactors at the Laguna Verde Nuclear Power Plant in M\'exico, based on the antineutrino spectra produced in the decay chains of the fission fragments of the main isotopes in the reactor ...

Analysis of gamma ray dose for dried up pond storing low enriched UO2 fuel

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Gamma ray dose is calculated for loss of coolant accident in spent fuel pond (SFP) storing irradiated fuels used in light water reactors. Influence of modelling of fuel assemblies, source distributions, and loading fraction of fuel assemblies in the fuel

Criticality safety analysis of spent fuel pool for a PWR using UO2, MOX, (Th-U)O2 and (TRU-Th)O2 fuels

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2019
A spent fuel pool of a typical Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) was evaluated for criticality studies when it uses reprocessed fuels. PWR nuclear fuel assemblies with four types of fuels were considered: standard PWR fuel, MOX fuel, thorium-uranium fuel ...

Results of validation and cross-verification of the ROK/B design code on the problem of loss of cooling in the spent fuel pool [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Energy and Technology, 2022
The procedures of validation and cross-verification of the newly developed computational code ROK/B are described. The main problem solved using the ROK/B code is the substantiation by calculation of the coolant density in the spent fuel pool (SFP) and ...

Effect of the burnable absorber arrangement on the VVER-1200 fuel assembly neutronic performance [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Energy and Technology, 2021
Optimizing the use of fuel in a power reactor is a task of current concern. However, little attention has been given to investigating the dependences among the enrichment used, the content of gadolinium oxide in fuel elements, and the life time in ...

Size-Dependent Tile Self-Assembly: Constant-Height Rectangles and Stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We introduce a new model of algorithmic tile self-assembly called size-dependent assembly. In previous models, supertiles are stable when the total strength of the bonds between any two halves exceeds some constant temperature.

Title Investigation of the influence of various factors on the power of heat exchange by radiation

open access: yesTrudy Odesskogo Politehničeskogo Universiteta, 2017
The issue of lack of knowledge of radiation heat transfer process has been repeatedly raised in various studies. Despite the fact that works on study of heat transfer by radiation covers a wide range of different industries, it should be noted the lack ...

Detection of Anomalous Reactor Activity Using Antineutrino Count Rate Evolution Over the Course of a Reactor Cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper analyzes the sensitivity of antineutrino count rate measurements to changes in the fissile content of civil power reactors. Such measurements may be useful in IAEA reactor safeguards applications. We introduce a hypothesis testing procedure to
