Thermal Hydraulics of Accelerator-Driven System Windowless Targets
The study of the fluid dynamics of the windowless spallation target of an accelerator-driven system (ADS) is presented. Several target mockup configurations have been investigated: the first one was a symmetrical target, which was made by two concentric cylinders and the other configurations are not symmetrical. In the experiments, water has been used as hydraulic equivalent to lead–bismuth eut...
متن کاملThermal Hydraulics Design Limits
The following discussion of PWR steady state and transient design limits is extracted from the theses of Carter Shuffler and Jarrod Trant while the BWR discussion is extracted from Paolo Ferroni's thesis (covers steady state only). These limits are a simplified and narrower discussion than the relevant NRC standard review plan you will also be referred to. All materials are directly extracted f...
متن کاملAppendix 1 Thermal Hydraulics, Draft for Comment
Several different fuel failure criteria have been used in previously NRC-sponsored SFP accident studies. Benjamin, et. al. used the onset of runaway fuel clad oxidation as the fuel failure criterion in NUREG/CR-0649 [Ref. 1]. This criterion was criticized because clad rupture can occur at a relatively low temperature causing a gap release. The consequences of gap release can be significant if t...
متن کاملConcept of an Accelerator-Driven Advanced Nuclear Energy System
The utilization of clean energy is a matter of primary importance for sustainable development as well as a vital approach for solving worldwide energy-related issues. If the low utilization rate of nuclear fuel, nuclear proliferation, and insufficient nuclear safety can be solved, nuclear fission energy could be used as a sustainable and low-carbon clean energy form for thousands of years, prov...
متن کاملThe Plasma Window: a Windowless High Pressure-vacuum Interface for Various Accelerator Applications*
The Plasma Window is a stabilized plasma arc used as an interface between accelerator vacuum and pressurized targets. There is no solid material introduced into the beam and thus it is also capable of transmitting particle beams and electromagnetic radiation with low loss and of sustaining high beam currents without damage. Measurements on a prototype system with a 3 mm diameter opening have sh...
