Heat-Loss Calculations in a SCWR Fuel-Channel

open access: yes18th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering: Volume 2, 2010
The objective of this paper is to calculate heat losses from a CANDU-6 fuel-channel while modifying it according to the specified operating pressure and temperature conditions of SuperCritical Water-cooled Reactors (SCWRs). Heat losses from the coolant to the moderator are significant in a SCWR because of high operating temperatures (i.e., 350–625°C ...

Synchronous Channel Fuel Pump

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2015
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">In the current state of the art automotive fuel pumps there is only one channel on each side of the impeller. For high flow and pressure applications the size of such pumps becomes excessive.

Quality Control of Fuel Cells Channels

Materials Science Forum, 2006
The methods of dimensional control for solid surfaces are usually contact methods. However, in fragile and reduced hardness surfaces, these methods present critical disadvantages. The method presented in this work aims to offer resources for the optimization of graphite components machined with laser through the measurement of the channels’ depth and ...

Combustion of a liquid fuel in a rectangular channel

Combustion, Explosion, and Shock Waves, 2014
The possibility of flame spread over the surface of a liquid fuel (n-butanol) in two-phase flow with a gaseous oxidizer in a narrow rectangular channel is demonstrated. The results of a detailed experimental study of combustion in this system are given.

Zirconium ignition in exposed fuel channel

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2015
Abstract A theoretical model based on simultaneous solution of the heat and mass transfer equations is developed for predicting the rate of thermo-chemical reaction between zirconium cladding and a hot steam environment. Ignition conditions relevant to cladding oxidation in an exposed fuel channel of a partially uncovered core are predicted based on ...

Uranium dioxide mass transfer in the central channel of the fuel kernel of a fuel element of a single-element energy-generating channel

Atomic Energy, 2009
The methods and computer program for calculating, as well as the computational results obtained, the remaining-life changes occurring in the profile of the central channel of the kernel of a fuel element in a single-element electricity generation channel because of uranium dioxide mass transfer, taking account of the redistribution of the fuel ...

Evolution of pores in the fuel cladding of the electrogenerating channel

Physics of Atomic Nuclei, 2014
The results of reactor tests of carbonitride fuel in a monocrystalline cladding from a molybdenum-based alloy that were carried out earlier on an experimental setup Ya-82 for 8 to 300 h at a temperature of ∼1500°C can be used in order to prove the operational reliability of fuel elements in the design of a megawatt nuclear power plant for a spacecraft.

Study on the performance and characteristics of fuel cell coupling cathode channel with cooling channel

International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2021
Abstract Water flooding in the cathode channel of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), which reduce the current density output and affect fuel cell lifetime. Hence, to suppress water flooding, a novel channel is proposed in this study, that is to perforate hole between the cooling channel and cathode channel.
