Load-follow operation capability of soluble boron-free small modular reactor ATOM

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research
This study investigates the feasibility of Daily Load-Follow Operation (DLFO) for the Autonomous Transportable On-demand Reactor Module (ATOM), a Soluble Boron-Free (SBF) small modular reactor (SMR). The ATOM core was selected as a reference model due to

Ceramic coatings for small modular reactors

open access: yes, 2020
In the nuclear sector, ceramic coatings can be applied to reactor components such as bearings and bolts to improve durability. Historically, electrodeposited hard chromium plate (HCP) has been used to provide wear and corrosion resistance in reactor environments.

Microstructure response and sodium corrosion behavior of ferritic-martensitic steel after proton irradiation

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
In nuclear reactors, cladding materials are irradiated by neutrons as well as various types of ion beams that can induce radiation damage. Proton irradiation has been used for the past few decades to simulate neutron damage because protons have a higher ...

Exclusions Zones for Small Modular Reactors

open access: yes, 2020
The objective of this thesis is to estimate the size of the exclusion zone around a small modular reactor (SMR). The aim of such zone is to provide an atmospheric space sufficient to dilute any radioactive releases during an accident, to a level below the safe regulated radiation dose for the public.

Small Modular Reactors in Denmark

open access: yes
The Danish Energy Agency has asked Ea Energy Analyses and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland to investigate the possibilities and consequences of integrating the compact nuclear reactor technology called Small Modular Reactor technologies (SMR technologies) into the Danish energy system. The project covers two subtasks: 1) a technical analysis of
