  1. 16. Evolution of microstructure and nanoscale chemistry of Zircaloy-2-type alloys during nuclear reactor operation

    Författare :Johan Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Zircaloy-2; Nuclear fuel cladding; Atom probe tomography; Zirconium alloys; Clustering; Dislocation loops; Radiation effects; Boiling water reactor;

    Sammanfattning : Zirconium alloys are used as fuel cladding tubes in nuclear reactors. During reactor operation, these alloys are degraded by corrosion, hydrogen pickup (HPU), and radiation-induced growth, processes influenced by the alloying elements. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Phenomenological and mechanistic modeling of melt-structure-water interactions in a light water reactor (LWR) severe accident

    Författare :Anh Bui Viet; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Severe accidents in light water reactors have been the fotalpoint of much research, performed in the last two decades,aimed at understarrding the inherent physical phenomena and toevaluate proposed accident management schemes for mitigatingthe consequences of such accidents. Severe accident progressionand consequences, av the reactor core overheats and melts, areintimately related to the interactions of the melt with coolant(water) and structures. LÄS MER

  3. 18. The Effective Convectivity Model for Simulation and Analysis of Melt Pool Heat Transfer in a Light Water Reactor Pressure Vessel Lower Head

    Författare :Chi Thanh Tran; Tomas Lefvert; Harri Tuomisto; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; light water reactor; hypothetical severe accident; accident progression; accident scenario; core melt pool; heat transfer; turbulent natural convection; heat transfer coefficient; phase change; mushy zone; crust; lower plenum; analytical model; effective convectivity model; CFD simulation; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Severe accidents in a Light Water Reactor (LWR) have been a subject of intense research for the last three decades. The research in this area aims to reach understanding of the inherent physical phenomena and reduce the uncertainties in their quantification, with the ultimate goal of developing models that can be applied to safety analysis of nuclear reactors, and to evaluation of the proposed accident management schemes for mitigating the consequences of severe accidents.

  5. 20. Applications of On-Line Continuous Solvent Extraction in Nuclear Chemistry

    Författare :Rikard Malmbeck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; reactor water; Seaborgium; BWR; mixer-settlers; Dubnium; Bohrium; transactinides; centrifuges; speciation; SISAK; solvent extraction; Iodine; Rutherfordium;

    Sammanfattning : Methods and procedures for on-line continuous chemical separation of iodine species in reactor water and for transactinides in heavy element chemistry have been developed. Radioiodine is one of the more important fission products in terms of nuclear reactor safety due to its high fission yield, significant radiobiological hazard and potential volatility. LÄS MER
