DECAY HEAT CALCULATION FOR SPENT FUEL POOL APPLICATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The automatic procedure was developed for fuel assembly decay heat calculation based on PARCS 3D burnup calculation for fuel cycle depletion, and ORIGEN 2.1 calculation during both depletion and fuel cooling.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Modelling of Flow and Heat Transfer in Spent Fuel Cooling Ponds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
With increased interest in Nuclear power generation and the issues of storing legacy fuels being apparent there is a real need to understand the heat transfer mechanisms involved in storing spent fuel within water filled cooling ponds.

Risk Analysis of Spent Fuel Pool Caused by Seismic Events

open access: yes, 2017
Spent fuel pool stores fuel assemblies that have been removed from the reactor in previous years, and the release of radioactive material to the external environment is easier than reactor core after fuel damage occurs.

A NOVEL APPROACH TO SPENT FUEL POOL DECOMMISSIONING [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has been at the forefront of developing methods to reduce the cost and schedule of deactivating spent fuel pools (SFP). Several pools have been deactivated at the INL using an underwater approach with divers. These projects provided a basis for the INL cooperation with the Dresden Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 SFP ...

Experimental Investigation of the Heat Transfer Characteristics and Operation Limits of a Fork-Type Heat Pipe for Passive Cooling of a Spent Fuel Pool

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
A fork-type heat pipe (FHP) is a passive heat-transport and air-cooling device used to remove the decay heat of spent nuclear fuels stored in a liquid pool during a station blackout.

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...
