Study on linking a SuperCritical water-cooled nuclear reactor to a hydrogen production facility
The SuperCritical Water-cooled nuclear Reactor (SCWR) is one of six Generation-IV nuclear-reactor concepts currently being designed. It will operate at pressures of 25 MPa and temperatures up to 625°C. These operating conditions make a SuperCritical Water (SCW) Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) suitable to …

Development of a heat-transfer correlation for supercritical water in supercritical water-cooled reactor applications
… analyzed and a new heat-transfer correlation for supercritical water was developed. This experimental dataset was obtained within conditions similar to those for proposed SuperCritical Water-cooled nuclear Reactor (SCWR) concepts. Thus, this new correlation, for forced convective heat transfer in …

Study of heat transfer in a 7-element bundle cooled with the upward flow of supercritical Freon-12
Experimental data on SuperCritical-Water (SCW) cooled bundles are very limited. Major problems with performing such experiments are: 1) small number of operating SCW experimental setups and 2) difficulties in testing and experimental costs at very high pressures, temperatures and heat fluxes. …

Heat-transfer analysis of double-pipe heat exchangers for indirect-cycle SCW NPP
SuperCritical-Water-cooled Reactors (SCWRs) are being developed as one of the Generation-IV nuclear-reactor concepts. SuperCritical Water (SCW) Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) are expected to have much higher operating parameters compared to current NPPs, i.e., pressure of about 25 MPa and outlet …

Conceptual development and analysis of multiple integrated hydrogen production plants with Cu-Cl cycle
… via hybrid electrical and thermochemical water decomposition cycle, based on the chemical couple Cu-Cl. The first system consists of coal gasifier, membrane shift reactor, hydrogen fueled combined cycle, cryogenic air separation unit, compression system and five-step Cu-Cl cycle. The …
