Thermal hydraulics of nuclear reactor as a basis of reactor safety has a very important role in reactor design and control. The thermal-hydraulic analysis provides input data to the reactor-physics analysis, whereas the latter gives information about the distribution of heat sources, which is needed to perform the thermal-hydraulic analysis. In this study single heated channel model as a very f...

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 ...

The paper is devoted to solution of some problems in nuclear power station generating unit intellectual control systems using genetic algorithms on the basis of control system model development, optimizations methods of their direct quality indices and improved integral quadratic estimates. Some mathematical vector models were obtained for control system multicriterion quality indices with due ...

The power control system of a nuclear reactor is one of the key systems that concern the safe operation of the plant. Much attention is paid to the power control systems’ performance of nuclear reactor in engineering. The goal of this paper is apply balance model reductionto derive reduced order model and then design the reduced optimal controller for nuclear reactor power system.The simulation...

In this paper, the nonlinear dynamic system of equations, a type of nuclear ssion reactor is solved analytically and numerically. Considering that the direct solution of three-dimensional dynamical systems analysis and more in order to determine the stability and instability, in terms of algebraicsystems is dicult. Using certain situations in mathematics called Hurwitz criterion, Necessary and ...

The Slovenian 250 kW TRIGA Mark II reactor operated by the Jožef Stefan Institute (JSI) has continuously operated since 1966. Since its commissioning it has played an important role in developing nuclear technology and safety culture in Slovenia. During the years the reactor has been utilized for training, research and isotope production. Education and training activities comprise regular exper...

This study proposes an effective method to inspect inaccessible nuclear power reactor head nozzles using interface waves that propagate along the shrink fit boundary of a reactor head. The reactor head is relatively thick, which makes it difficult to inspect from the outside by conventional ultrasonic testing. However, interface waves can propagate a long distance from a fixed transducer positi...
