Fission power plants take advantage of the dependence of the binding energy per nucleon binding energy per nucleon on the mass of nuclei. The binding energy of uranium is about 7.5 MeV/nucleon, that of the fission products is about 8.5 MeV/nucleon. Since the fission products are more tightly bound, they have a smaller mass per nucleon. The fission of a

Economics of nuclear power plants
2020This chapter starts by explaining the difference between commonly used terminology associated with cost, price, and value. Cost is a key nonfunctional requirement for a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) project and should be considered as part of the decision-making process across all lifecycle phases.

The stability of a nuclear power plant
Journal of Nuclear Energy. Part A. Reactor Science, 1959Abstract Studies are made of the stability of a nuclear power source consisting of a water-cooled, water moderated reactor that has a negative temperature coefficient of reactivity, a saturated-steam generator and a turbine. It is assumed that the system has only two regulators, a throttle before the turbine and a constant level device for the boiler

Control of nuclear power plants
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 1978The control of nuclear power plants covers a wide range of problems and requires understanding of the many interactions and objectives involved in obtaining operational flexibility and safety. Improved solutions must be developed as nuclear plants will increasingly require operation in a load-following mode.

On “immortal” nuclear power plants
Technology in Society, 2004Abstract US nuclear reactors have demonstrated that they can continue to operate well beyond their thirty or forty year operating licenses which, at the time they were issued, were based on criteria for large fossil fuel power plants. Accordingly, a longevity criterion for 21st century reactors is proposed here, designed to last 100 years or more ...

Electronics in Nuclear Power Plants
IETE Journal of Research, 1975Electronics and nuclear energy are two fields which are both recent in their applications and the two have been contributing to the success of each other. The nuclear reactions act in milliseconds (or faster) and have demanded development of fast measurement and control devices.
