Assessment of a compact steam generator aided by computational fluid dynamics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Steam generators are an essential component in nuclear power plants which serve to transfer thermal power from a liquid coolant to steam by boiling water. Even with many advancements in the designs of steam generators, ... -
Development of an experimental technique to investigate droplet cooling phenomena on accident tolerant fuel materials
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Droplet cooling is used in many heat removal applications, including core spray coolers in boiling water reactors. As new accident tolerant fuels are developed, understanding how they respond to droplet cooling is important ... -
Application of genetic algorithm and deep reinforcement learning for in-core fuel management
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)The nuclear reactor core is composed of few hundred assemblies. The loading of these assemblies is done with the goal of reducing its overall cost while maintaining safety limits. Typically, the core designers choose a ...
