Using Machine Learning to Predict the Fuel Peak Cladding Temperature for a Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2021
In this paper the use of machine learning (ML) is explored as an efficient tool for uncertainty quantification. A machine learning algorithm is developed to predict the peak cladding temperature (PCT) under the conditions of a large break loss of coolant

Nuclear Power Plant or Solar Power Plant

open access: yes, 2021
Both solar energy and nuclear energy face significant economic challenges. Sustainable energy costs have traditionally been greater than any of those associated with the growth of fossil fuel power generation, although the costs of renewable energy technologies (especially photovoltaic) have dropped. Furthermore, capital costs remain a big challenge in
