متن کاملOptimal Investment in Modular Reactors in a Finite Time Decision Horizon
Small and Medium sized reactors (according to IAEA, ’small’ are reactors with power less than 300 MWe, and ’medium’ with power less than 700 MWe) are considered as an attractive option for investment in nuclear power plants. SMRs may benefit from flexibility of investment, reduced upfront expenditure, enhanced safety, and easy integration with small sized grids. Large reactors on the other hand...
متن کاملFinite-horizon variance penalised Markov decision processes
We consider a finite horizon Markov decision process with only terminal rewards. We describe a finite algorithm for computing a Markov deterministic policy which maximises the variance penalised reward and we outline a vertex elimination algorithm which can reduce the computation involved.
متن کاملNew Generation Nuclear Power Plants
− The radioactivity measurement techniques being developed within the EMRP “MetroFission” Joint Research Project (JRP) [1], are aimed at performing on-site activity measurements, by the development of a portable Triple to Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) system along with associated digital electronics. The TDCR standardisation method for beta-emitting radionuclides (e.g. H and Pu) produces an e...
متن کاملSafety in nuclear power plants in India
Safety in nuclear power plants (NPPs) in India is a very important topic and it is necessary to dissipate correct information to all the readers and the public at large. In this article, I have briefly described how the safety in our NPPs is maintained. Safety is accorded overriding priority in all the activities. NPPs in India are not only safe but are also well regulated, have proper radiolog...
