Study on the Density Wave Instability in Natural Circulation System under Rolling Conditions

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
In the ocean environment, the thermal fluid system installed on the ship moves with the waves. This unsteady transient motion imposes additional body forces on the liquid. Thereby, the thermohydraulic properties of the thermal fluid system are changed, especially for natural circulation systems with a low driving force.

Methods for Predicting the Minimum Temperature of the Outage Loop and the Maximum Power Caused by the Low‐Temperature Coolant

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
When the feedwater valve at the outage loop of the floating nuclear power plant leaks, thermal stratification occurs in the steam generator. It causes lower water temperature in the outage loop. The extent of hazard of this phenomenon cannot be directly determined by the existing measurement parameters, which poses a threat to the operational safety of

ELSMOR European Project: Experimental Results on an Innovative Decay Heat Removal System Based on a Plate‐Type Heat Exchanger

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
This paper summarises the results of an experimental campaign carried out at SIET on the ELSMOR facility built in 2022 to validate a decay heat removal system for the E‐SMR. Based on the passive mechanisms of natural circulation, the system aims to dissipate the reactor decay heat to a water pool, using two heat exchangers: a plate‐type one coupling ...

Simulations of Core Damage Progression for TMI‐2 Severe Accident Using CINEMA Computer Code

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
As an integrated computer code development for severe accident sequence analysis in Korea, CINEMA has been developing from an initiation event to a containment failure. The CINEMA computer code is composed of CSPACE, SACAP, and SIRIUS, which are capable of simulating core melt progression with thermal hydraulic analysis of the RCS (reactor coolant ...

Experimental study and safety analysis on the heating surfaces in the 660 MW supercritical CFB boiler under sudden electricity failure

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 10, Issue 7, Page 2088-2105, July 2022., 2022
In this project, the necessity of equipping with an emergency water supply system in a supercritical circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler has long been a controversial topic in the industry. And a boiler electricity failure experiment was accomplished, a mathematical model established and a calculation program developed.

The Concept of the Heat Removal System of a High‐Flux Research Reactor

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Achieving high neutron fluxes in research pressurized water reactors is directly related to the intensity of the coolant flow through the core and the pressure in it, which provides an increased saturation temperature and a margin to critical heat flux.
