Improving PWR core simulations by Monte Carlo uncertainty analysis and Bayesian inference

, 2016
A Monte Carlo-based Bayesian inference model is applied to the prediction of reactor operation parameters of a PWR nuclear power plant. In this non-perturbative framework, high-dimensional covariance information describing the uncertainty of microscopic ...

Flow Heat Transfer Characteristics and Dynamic Response of Once-Through Cooling Water System in Nuclear Power Plants Under Complex Operating Conditions

Energies
As a critical component of nuclear power units, the direct cooling water system plays a key role in overall performance. To maintain economic efficiency, it is necessary to adjust the circulating water flow rate as conditions change.

Determination of anthropogenic changes on the urbanized territories using GIS technology [PDF]

, 2017
The research aim is to obtain a cartographic model of an urbanized territory by means of thermal survey in an infrared range. With this cartographic model, it will be then possible to reduce the zones in the urbanized territories differing in the level ...

Spatial Effects in Willingness-to-Pay: The Case of Two Nuclear Risks [PDF]

This paper examines the spatial dimension of marginal willingness to pay (MWP) for reduction of nuclear risks through increased insurance coverage. The effect of distance from a nuclear power plant on individuals’ MWP is ambiguous.
