Effects of Core Spray Cooling at Stationary State after Loss of Coolant Accident

Nuclear Fuel Behaviour in Loss-of-coolant Accident (LOCA) Conditions

Integral Behavior of the Atlas Facility for a 3-inch Small Break Loss of Coolant Accident

Over the past 30 years, several large integral facilities have been utilized in order to understand transient behavior in nuclear power plants. The main objective of these integral facilities was to enhance our physical understanding of transient phenomena during LOCA or non-LOCA transients. An integral database was also used as a basis for the development and verification of thermal hydraulic ...

critical period effects in foreign language learning:the influence of maturational state on the acquisition of reading,writing, and grammar in english as a foreign language

since the 1960s the age effects on learning both first and second language have been explored by many linguists and applied linguists (e.g lennerberg, 1967; schachter, 1996; long, 1990) and the existence of critical period for language acquisition was found to be a common ground of all these studies. in spite of some common findings, some issues about the impacts of age on acquiring a second or...

Steady State Analysis of Coolant Temperature Distribution in a Spark Ignition Engine Cooling Jacket

A full scale SI engine has been imported in to the CFD tool to analyse the temperature distribution of coolant throughout the cooling channels. The segregated approach solver has been adopted to solve the energy equations along with the RANS two layer turbulence model to find out accordance with the available theoretical and published results. The input values are collected from complete vehicl...

Dynamic behavior of cryogen spray cooling: effects of spurt duration and spray distance.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Cryogen spray cooling (CSC) is used to minimize the risk of epidermal damage during laser dermatologic surgery. Since optimization of CSC permits the safe use of higher light doses, which improves therapeutic outcome in many patients with superficial skin lesions, studies have focused on understanding spray-surface interactions and cooling dynamics. The objective of th...
