CFD-based fluid calculation model selection and field analysis for small reactors

CFD-Calculation of Fluid Flow in a

An accurate description of the fluid flow and heat transfer within a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR), for the safety analysis and reactor performance is always desirable. In this paper a mathematical model of the fundamental physical phenomena which are associated to a typical PWR is presented. The mathematical model governs the fluid dynamics in the reactor. Using commercial software CFX, a co...

fabrication of new ion sensitive field effect transistors (isfet) based on modification of junction-fet for analysis of hydronium, potassium and hydrazinium ions

a novel and ultra low cost isfet electrode and measurement system was designed for isfet application and detection of hydronium, hydrazinium and potassium ions. also, a measuring setup containing appropriate circuits, suitable analyzer (advantech board), de noise reduction elements, cooling system and pc was used for controlling the isfet electrode and various characteristic measurements. the t...

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Modeling of Photochemical Reactors

An Intelligence-Based Model for Supplier Selection Integrating Data Envelopment Analysis and Support Vector Machine

The importance of supplier selection is nowadays highlighted more than ever as companies have realized that efficient supplier selection can significantly improve the performance of their supply chain. In this paper, an integrated model that applies Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) is developed to select efficient suppliers based on their predicted efficiency sco...

CFB reactors , CFD and particle / turbulence interactions

The design of furnaces and boilers for solid fuels is supported increasingly by powerful softwares and ever faster computers. A round-robin over the most important CFD (computational fluid mechanics) models and softwares currently available shows, however, that numerical procedures for particle/turbulence interactions are not (yet) very advanced. Particle/fluid interphase slip is considered, bu...
