FLUOLE-2: An Experiment for PWR Pressure Vessel Surveillance

Design and Analysis of Pressure Vessel Subjected to Pressure-temperature Variation (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Pressure vessel is a container used to store fluids under pressure and temperature. The fluids can be air, water, chemicals, fuel, gases etc. are most commonly used in food and chemical industries, oil refineries and so on. Pressure vessel is subjected to thermal and structural loads for power plant applications. Since the pressure vessel are subjected to both structural and thermal loads stres...

Experiment Site Primary Containment Reactor Pressure Vessel Suppression Pool Building Auxiliary

This article reviews the research program and efforts for the TEXONO Collaboration on neu-trino and astro-particle physics. The " flagship " program is on reactor-based neutrino physics at the Kuo-Sheng (KS) Power Plant in Taiwan. A limit on the neutrino magnetic moment of µ ¯ νe < 1.3 × 10 −10 µ B at 90% confidence level was derived from measurements with a high purity germanium detector. Othe...

Cfd Prediction of Pressure Drop for the Inlet Region of a Pwr Fuel Assembly

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been widely used in pressure drop/hydraulic loss calculations in many industries, including the aerospace and turbo-machinery industry as well as in the nuclear power industry. During the past 30 years, a significant amount of time and effort have been spent in benchmarking the CFD tools and models against test data in aerospace and turbo-machinery industr...
