Decay Heat Removal in GEN IV Gas-Cooled Fast Reactors

High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactors

GAS COOLED REACTORS (Session 6) Chairpersons

The High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) is particularly attractive due to its capability of producing high temperature helium gas and inherent safety characteristics. These interesting aspects make HTGR worthy of discussion on the future advanced reactors. The Japanese interest in the HTGR has resulted in the construction of the High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (the HTTR) at the...

Large Eddy Simulation in Pebble Bed Gas Cooled Core Reactors

A High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) is one of the renewed reactor designs to play a role in nuclear power generation. This reactor design concept is currently under consideration and development worldwide. The combination of coated particle fuel, inert helium gas as coolant and graphite moderated reactor makes possible to operate at high temperature yielding a high efficiency. In this ...

Heat Removal from Reverse Flow Reactors Used in Methane Combustion

THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING 695 In the hierarchy of waste management techniques it is better to prevent harmful emissions from being generated in the first place. If this laudable objective is not practically feasible, the treatment of emissions to produce less harmful substances is worthy of detailed consideration. For such waste treatment processes, the most technically and e...
