On the Dust-curtain Model Gaseous-core Reactor for Space of a Radiation Shield in A
The interest in interplanetary space travel has stimulated much discussion on the desirability of using nuclear, rather than chemical, energy for the spacecraft propulsion. Comparisons of the relative merits of various propulsion systems have been extensively discussed in the literature. The results of such studies yield a diversity of conclusions, depending on the assumptions which are made in...
متن کاملInvestigation of Fuel Cycle for a Sub-critical Fusion-fission Hybrid Breeder Reactor
iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my parents for providing me with a loving and supportive environment which cultivated my love for science and the drive to pursue it; my advisor, Professor Stacey for his insight, guidance, and reassurance throughout my introduction to the discipline of nuclear engineering; Professor Petrovic who helped refine my understanding of reactor physics; the p...
متن کاملCore Loading Design for Bushehr Pressurized Water Reactor
The modified out-in fuel management strategy was applied to the core loading design for the first four cycles of the Bushehr (Iran-1) KWU designed Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). The minimum peak-to-average power density was chosen as the objective function of the optimization process. Lattice homogenization and group constants generation were performed by using the LEOPARD computer code. For ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Centre Manifold Method for Limit Cycle Calculations of a Nonlinear Structural Wing
In this study the centre manifold is applied for reduction and limit cycle calculation of a highly nonlinear structural aeroelastic wing. The limit cycle is arisen from structural nonlinearity due to the large deflection of the wing. Results obtained by different orders of centre manifolds are compared with those obtained by time marching method (fourth-order Runge-Kutta method). These comparis...
متن کاملThermodynamic analysis of pumped thermal electricity storage
The increasing use of renewable energy technologies for electricity generation, many of which have an unpredictably intermittent nature, will inevitably lead to a greater need for electricity storage. Although there are many existing and emerging storage technologies, most have limitations in terms of geographical constraints, high capital cost or low cycle life, and few are of sufficient scale...
