Research on Neutronics Safety Parameters of the AP1000 Nuclear Reactor under Different Conditions

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
Changes in temperature during reactor operation may cause changes in physical parameters, leading to core overheating and accidents. It is essential to analyze and assess the safety parameters of the core under different operating conditions.

Low‐Carbon Energy Transition and Corporate Carbon Emissions: The Critical Role of Climate Change Mitigation Policies and Institutional Context

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the strategic efficacy of corporate low‐carbon energy transition, such as through nuclear energy adoption, as a response to decarbonization pressures. Analyzing an international sample of energy firms, we demonstrate that the relationship between this form of transition and emission reductions is not technologically ...

High Reactor Configuration and Power Frequency Resonance Analysis for The Cuting-Off of 220 kV Single-Circuit Long Line

open access: yesZhongguo dianli, 2020
In order to avoid overvoltage in the power grid, shunt reactor is usually installed at both ends of long lines. As the power grid construction is expanding, long lines are often cut off and new substations are connected into the grid in order to improve ...

Impact of accidents on organizational aspects of nuclear utilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper applies the Beer Viable Systems Model (VSM) approach to the study of nuclear accidents. It relates how organizational structures and rules are affected by accidents in the attempt to improve safety and reduce risk.

Design and implementation of a 3D‐printed modular distillation tower for experimental teaching in chemical engineering

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Several authors have reported the disconnection between the skills, abilities, and attitudes of graduates from STEM careers with the current needs of the labour market. In science and engineering fields, research has found the need for interdisciplinary approaches that encourage meaningful learning.

A hidden Markov model and reinforcement learning‐based strategy for fault‐tolerant control

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study introduces a data‐driven control strategy integrating hidden Markov models (HMM) and reinforcement learning (RL) to achieve resilient, fault‐tolerant operation against persistent disturbances in nonlinear chemical processes. Called hidden Markov model and reinforcement learning (HMMRL), this strategy is evaluated in two case studies

CFD Investigation of MHTGR Natural Circulation and Decay Heat Removal in P-LOFC Accident

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2020
One of the key postulated accidents in a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) is the pressurized loss of forced cooling (P-LOFC) of the primary loop, which can be triggered by its primary helium circulator trip or turbine trip.
