Thermal hydraulic design of a salt-cooled highly efficient environmentally friendly reactor
A 1 OOOMWth liquid-salt cooled thermal spectrum reactor was designed with a long fuel cycle, and high core exit temperature. These features are desirable in a reactor designed to provide process heat applications such as oil refinery needs of heat and electricity. The reactor uses the binary salt …

Thermal hydraulic design of a 2400 MW t̳h̳ direct supercritical CO₂-cooled fast reactor
… alternative to the mainstream helium cooled GFR design. A steady state core design was developed which utilizes an innovative, high fuel volume fraction, vented Tube-In-Duct (TID) fuel assembly. Through an extensive series of iterative calculations, RELAP5-3D was then used to evaluate the natural …
