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...

As a licensing requirement, constructing new nuclear power plant (NPP) requires performing radiological environmental impact assessment (REIA) which includes the study of radioactive releases' effects on surrounding environment and population. These discharges could be aerial: from chimneys (stacks), evaporation, erosion, re-suspension; or liquid discharges: into rivers, lakes, estuaries coasta...

In the effort to improve efficiency of a photovoltaic system, previous studies have demonstrated potential solar reflectors and cooling systems enhance performance Photovoltaic (PV) systems. However, Result varies from Location limited research exists on their combined effect. This study investigates impact PV system in Kano State, Nigeria. Three Experimental setup were tested; (a panel without...

BACKGROUND Although it is known that lifestyle behaviors of pregnant women are closely related to maternal and fetal health, number of data concerning efficacy of intervention on lifestyle during pregnancy is limited. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of lifestyle interventions on improving dietary habits and lifestyle behaviors, ensuring gestational weight gain (GWG) within ...

Nuclear power plants play a significant role in global electricity generation, offering reliable and low-carbon energy source. Maximizing the efficiency of nuclear is crucial for optimizing output reducing operational costs while ensuring safety environmental sustainability. This paper presents comprehensive review analysis conducted on plants, covering various aspects such as thermal efficienc...
