The Pebble-Bed Modular Reactor: Safety Issues
The Bush Administration has made the expansion of nuclear power generation a centerpiece of its domestic energy policy. However, the White House has not addressed the practical issue of how to overcome the nearly three-decade-long aversion among U.S. electric utilities to investing in new nuclear plants. In today's deregulating market, utilities will not build new nuclear power plants unless th...
متن کاملModeling and Transient Analysis for the Modular Pebble-bed Advanced High Temperature
The Pebble Bed Advanced High Temperature Reactor (PB-AHTR) is a liquid-salt cooled reactor that uses conventional TRISO fuel. Due to the high thermal inertia of the liquid salt coolant, the PB-AHTR allows for a much higher power-density core than traditional gas-cooled high temperature reactors. High power density has a favorable economic impact. In 2007, the baseline design 2400MWth PB-AHTR wa...

متن کاملMit Pebble Bed Reactor Project
MIT has been developing a conceptual design for pebble bed reactors since approximately 1998, when a student design project concluded that in order to resurrect the nuclear power industry a new, innovative approach was needed, not only in reactor design but also in construction and operation. In their quest to identify the appropriate technology several key conclusions were reached. First was t...
متن کاملContact Detection Acceleration in Pebble Flow Simulation for Pebble Bed Reactor Systems
Pebble flow simulation plays an important role in the steady state and transient analysis of thermal-hydraulics and neutronics for Pebble Bed Reactors (PBR). The Discrete Element Method (DEM) and the modified Molecular Dynamics (MD) method are widely used to simulate the pebble motion to obtain the distribution of pebble concentration, velocity, and maximum contact stress. Although DEM and MD p...
