Thermal–hydraulic characteristics for CANFLEX fuel channel using burnable poison in CANDU reactor

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2015
The thermal–hydraulic characteristics for the CANadian Deuterium Uranium Flexible (CANFLEX)-burnable poison (BP) fuel channel, which is loaded with a BP at the center ring based on the CANFLEX-RU (recycled uranium) fuel channel, are evaluated and ...

CONCEPTUAL FUEL CHANNEL DESIGNS FOR CANDU-SCWR

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2008
This paper presents two of the fuel channel designs being considered for the CANDU-SCWR, a pressure-tube type supercritical water cooled reactor. The first is an insulated pressure tube design. The pressure tube is thermally insulated from the hot coolant by a porous ceramic insulator.

Automated Image Stitching of Down Channel Nuclear Reactor Fuel Channel Inspection Footage [PDF]

open access: yes12th Nuclear Plant Instrumentation, Control and Human-Machine Interface Technologies (NPIC&HMIT 2021), 2021
Routine inspection of the nuclear reactor core is fundamental to the continued safe operation of any nuclear power plant. Inspection methods vary but a common approach is visual inspection. Visual inspections are performed routinely on the UK’s seven Advanced Gas-cooled Reactors (AGR) and in this paper, we focus on that design.

Fuel Channel Inspection Equipment for RBMK Reactors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 2001
This paper describes fuel channel inspection equipment for RBMK reactors. Specially designed equipment for inspecting RBMK reactor fuel channels has been manufactured by a Japanese joint company group and supplied to the Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant. Three different heads of the equipment were used to detect flaws in the fuel channel especially in the

ASSESSMENT OF HEAT TRANSFER IN FUEL CHANNEL OF INDIAN PHWR UNDER POSTULATED LARGE BREAK LOSS OF COOLANT ACCIDENT: EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL STUDY [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
The behaviour of the channel under postulated large break LOCA scenario had been a prime safety concern. The radiative heat transfer is predominant in a channel when the convective cooling environment is marred. The estimation of temperature distribution

Investigation of water motion in a fuel cell channel with a reservoir

open access: yesJournal of Cleaner Production, 2022
© 2022 Elsevier LtdThis study presents a novel gas distribution channel configured with a reservoir and an extra outlet to prevent channels from being clogged by long slugs in the vicinity of the outlet port in fuel cells. The motion of water droplets in this channel was investigated using the volume of fluid method.

A novel model of third phase inclusions on two phase boundaries

open access: yesMaterials Theory, 2017
A new computationally efficient model of an included phase located at the interface between two other phases is developed by projecting the boundaries of the inclusion onto the boundary between the two other phases.
