CFD analysis of three-dimensional thermalhydraulics flow effects on wall concentration gradient profiles for Lbe loop fittings
… of the thesis is to study the effects of thermalhydraulics flows on the wall concentration gradient profiles in LBE loop fittings. To that end detailed models of the fittings have been constructed to study these effects. These fittings include sudden expansion, sudden contraction, t-joint …

Feasibility of breeding in hard spectrum boiling water reactors with oxide and nitride fuels
… MCNP. The code was coupled with a lumped channel thermalhydraulics 5-channel model for steady-state analyses. The depletion code MCODE, which links MCNP with ORIGEN, was used for all burnup calculations. Select physics parameters were calculated and with the exception of the void coefficients, …

CFD determination of fluid and geometry related localized heat transfer phenomena for supercritical water flow
The proposed concept of Supercritical Water-cooled Reactor (SCWR) as part of the Generation IV International Forum aims to improve the thermal efficiency over current power plants by utilizing cooling water at pressures and temperature above the critical point. At supercritical conditions, however, …
