Study on heat transfer to supercritical water in application to SMRs
The SuperSafe Reactor (SSR), a small modular reactor (SMR) concept with a supercritical water coolant, was subjected to a thermalhydraulic analysis and an economic analysis of its Levelized Unit of Energy Cost (LUEC). Heat transfer data was examined for the onset of deteriorated heat transfer using …

Exclusions Zones for Small Modular Reactors
… estimate the size of the exclusion zone around a small modular reactor (SMR). The aim of such zone is to provide an atmospheric space sufficient to dilute any radioactive releases during an accident, to a level below the safe regulated radiation dose for the public. A hypothetical severe accident …

A dynamic knowledge graph approach for studying the decarbonisation of power systems
… construction, simulation, and optimisation. Modularised like Lego bricks, these agents allow customizable assembly for specific tasks. Agents encapsulate mathematical algorithms and models based on their functionalities. For example, some agents wrapped algorithms for power flow (PF) and …

Specifics of forced-convection heat transfer in a vertical 7-element bundle cooled with upward flow of SuperCritical Water
… Canada investigating the SuperCritical Water Reactor (SCWR) concept. However, determining Heat Transfer specifics for SuperCritical Water in bundle configurations is required. Many empirical Nusselt number (Nu) correlations derived from bare tubes are available, with only one derived from a …
