Dynamic Modeling and Control Characteristics of the Two-Modular HTR-PM Nuclear Plant

Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2017
The modular high temperature gas-cooled reactor (MHTGR) is a typical small modular reactor (SMR) with inherent safety feature. Due to its high reactor outlet coolant temperature, the MHTGR can be applied not only for electricity production but also as a ...

Load following with Small Modular Reactors (SMR): A real options analysis [PDF]

Energy, 2015
Load following is the potential for a power plant to adjust its power output as demand and price for electricity fluctuates throughout the day. In nuclear power plants, this is done by inserting control rods into the reactor pressure vessel. This operation is very inefficient as nuclear power generation is composed almost entirely of fixed and sunk ...
