reactor core for nuclear power plant (1293 mwe) is of pressurized water reactor (pwr) type , with net electric output of 1200 mwe. the reactor is designed by a german company kwu (krafts werk :union:). in order to introduce the methods of calculation of the reactor core parameters to the students at the institute of nuclear science and technology, and in addition to provide them with the basic ...

Since its discovery in the 1920s, the Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) has undergone periods of rapid development and periods of inaction. Within ten years of the discovery, German companies were building commercial plants. The construction of these plants stopped about 1940 but existing plants continued to operate during WWII. Two types of reactors were used in the German commercial plants: the...

The combined cycle power plant is made up of three major systems, the gas turbine engine, the heat recovery steam generator and the steam turbine. Of the major systems the gas turbine engine is a fixed design offered by a manufacturer, and the steam turbine is also a fairly standard design available from a manufacturer, but it may be somewhat customized for the project. In contrast, the heat re...

Inference system out performed the other methods in terms of accuracy and ease of implementation, while still achieving a fast execution time as well as a reasonable training time.

The growing penetration of intermittent power generation technologies is increasing the importance of operating efficient electricity balancing mechanisms. This paper presents a model for analysing the financial cost to an electricity supplier when a power generator unexpectedly instantaneously shuts down, in the context of the UK National Grid. The simulation probabilistically selects historic...

Abstract In marine nuclear power plants based on molten salt reactors, the complexity of core reactions, fuel fluidity, and “false” water level characteristics steam generator make it unrealistic to establish an accurate mathematical model, so is difficult implement traditional PID control methods. This has increased substantially. The fuzzy a good solution this feature. Therefore, combined wit...

Most of the advanced integrated energy systems need a heat recovery steam cycle (HRSC), either fired or unfired, that recovers the waste heat from gas turbines and process units in order to generate electric power and supply mechanical power to compressors, heat to endothermic processes, and steam to external users. The key feature of such HRSCs is the integration between the heat recovery stea...
