An alternate high pressure injection system for pressurized-water reactors
… during an intermediate size cold-leg break in a Combustion Engineering PWR with ICIS is equal to the initial operating temperature of 335°c (636°F). The maximum core average fuel cladding temperature reached during a large size cold-leg break with ICIS is 478°c (893°F). This temperature is …

Neutronic Characteristics of Using Zirconium Diboride and Gadolinium in a Westinghouse 17 X 17 Fuel Assembly
… (ZrB2). Other fuel manufacturers such as Combustion Engineering, Siemens, General Electric, and Framatome incorporate gadolinium directly into the fuel matrix which yields the gadolinium-uranium (Gd2O3 - UO2) integral burnable absorber (IBA) rods. A drawback of burnable absorbers is that …

Computational design, sensitivity analysis and optimization of fuel reforming catalytic reactor
In this research, the catalytic combustion of methane is numerically investigated using an unstructured, implicit, fully coupled finite volume approach. The nonlinear system of equations is solved by Newton’s method. The catalytic partial oxidation of methane over a rhodium catalyst in one channel …

Oxy-combustion of High Water Content Fuels
… we propose an unconventional concept of combustion - direct combustion of high water content fuels. Due to the high water content in the fuels, they may not burn under air-fired conditions. Therefore, oxy-combustion is applied. Three applications of this concept in power generation are …
