Integral PWR-Type Small Modular Reactor Developmental Status, Design Characteristics and Passive Features: A Review [PDF]
In recent years, the trend in small modular reactor (SMR) technology development has been towards the water-cooled integral pressurized water reactor (iPWR) type. The innovative and unique characteristics of iPWR-type SMRs provide an enhanced safety margin, and thus offer the potential to expand the use of safe, clean, and reliable nuclear energy to a ...

Tgratinghis paper presents the results of experimental investigations of the influence of mixing spacer gratings with different types of deflectors on the coolant flow in the TVSKvadrat fuel assembly of the PWR-type reactor. Experimental model of the TVS-Kvadrat of the PWR reactor was made in complete geometric similarity with the full-scale cassettes.

China's pathways to net‐zero electricity by 2050 are evaluated using life cycle environmental and economic assessment across six scenarios. Results show that a renewables‐only grid offers the best overall environmental performance and lowest cost, but increases burdens on metal depletion, land use, and ecotoxicity.

An integrated energy system (IES) can alleviate energy crises, promote multi‐energy complementarity, and enhance finer‐grained energy development. Nuclear power is clean and efficient, mainly when using small modular reactors (SMRs), which increase power generation, improve system flexibility, and promote a low‐carbon economy.

Impact of sintering parameters on the microstructure of homogeneous U1‐xCexO2+δ ceramics
Abstract The effects of atmosphere and cerium content on the densification and the final microstructure of homogeneous U1‐xCexO2+δ solid solutions (x = 0.10; 0.25; 0.50) were investigated. Dilatometric studies first revealed that while the cerium content only slightly modifies sintering under an Ar/H2 atmosphere, a change of the gas to argon ...
