Vibration Analysis of Advanced Test Reactor Miniplate Hydraulic Test in the OSU HMFTF

Creator:

Latimer, Griffen D.

Abstract:

Current research on the topic of advanced reactor fuel types include the use of ultrahigh density Uranium-Molybdenum fuels, towards their use in high-performance research reactors. These reactors operate with high power densities, and the increased cooling requirements therefore place high relevance on the fluid-structure interaction with these fuel elements; therefore...

Scaling of the Chinese HTR-PM Reactor Design for Licensing and Testing at the Oregon State University High Temperature Test Facility

Creator:

Cox, Jordan

Abstract:

The United States (US) Department of Energy (DOE) has identified the pebble-bed reactor as a high priority for US research with the end goal of licensing a pebble-bed reactor (PBR) for operation in the United States. Before this can be accomplished significant research must be done regarding the safety of...
