Multiple usage of thorium-based fuel in a VVER-1000 reactor
Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2022 This paper considers the use of unconventional fuel in nuclear power reactors, using the example of a VVER-type unit, in order to find out the possibility of saving natural fissile uranium nuclei. Saving fissile uranium is one of the important tasks, the solution of which will give time for the development of a two-component nuclear power industry that

Experimental Research for CHF Sensitivity of Heat Flux Distribution under IVR Conditions
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 In‐vessel retention (IVR) through external reactor vessel cooling (ERVC) is one of the most effective severe accident mitigation measures in the nuclear power plants. The most influential issues on the IVR strategy are in‐vessel core melt evolution, the heat fluxes imposed on the lower head, and the external cooling of reactor pressurized vessel (RPV).

Uranium Recovery from Phosphates for Self‐Sufficient Nuclear Power in the Eastern Mediterranean
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Production of phosphate fertilizers (PF), without uranium recovery, amounts to dispersing uranium compounds on agricultural fields. These compounds are naturally hidden in phosphate rock deposits prior to processing. Such a dispersion is a cumulative environmental damage, that may become rather catastrophic in few hundred years, under the current rates
