Modeling transient thermalhydraulic behavior of a thermionic fuel element for nuclear space reactors

Creator:: Al-Kheliewi, Abdullah S.
Abstract:: A transient code (TFETC) for calculating the temperature distribution throughout the radial and axial positions of a thermionic fuel element (TFE) has been successfully developed. It accommodates the variations of temperatures, thermal power, electrical power, voltage, and current density throughout the TFE as a function of time as well as...

Preliminary framework for the run-ahead predictive simulation software (RAPSS)

Creator:: Makinson, Kevin A.
Abstract:: The Run-Ahead Predictive Simulation Software (RAPSS) is an architecture designed for faster-than-real-time decision support for operators of complex networks. To enable further development of the RAPSS methodology, the necessary proof of principle is illustrated in two applications: decision support for shift technical advisors in nuclear power plant control rooms (RAPSS-STA),...

Experimental simulations of a rotating bubble membrane radiator for space nuclear power systems

Creator:: Al-Baroudi, Homan Mohammed-Zahid
Abstract:: A rotating, flat plate condensation experiment has been developed to investigate the heat of the Rotating Bubble Membrane Radiator (RBMR). The RBMR is a proposed heat rejection system for space applications which uses working fluid condensation on the inside surface of a rotating sphere to reject heat to space. The...

Fission Gas Bubble Behavior in Uranium Carbide

Creator:: Matthews, Christopher
Abstract:: The need for cheap reliable energy, while simultaneously avoiding uranium supply constraints makes uranium carbide (UC) fueled Gas Fast Reactors offer an attractive nuclear reactor design. In order to qualify the fuel, an enhanced understanding of the behavior of uranium carbide during operation is paramount. Due to a reduced re-solution...

Critical heat flux estimation for annular channel geometry

Creator:: Pagh, Richard T.
Abstract:: Critical Heat Flux (CHF) is an important safety parameter for the design of nuclear reactors. The most commonly used predictive tool for determination of CHF is a look-up table developed using tube data with an average hydraulic test diameter of 8 mm. There exist in the world today nuclear reactors...

A model for waterside oxidation of zircaloy fuel cladding in pressurized water reactors

Creator:: Almarshad, Abdullah I. A.
Abstract:: A model has been developed to predict the long-term oxidation rate of Zircaloy-4 for ex-reactor (autoclave) and in-reactor (PWR) environments and operating conditions. A computer program has been written to solve the oxygen diffusion equation by employing a fully implicit finite difference method for a one dimensional cylindrical geometry. The...

Proof of Concept of the use of Advanced Computational Accident Scenario Modeling for Safety Margin Economic Evaluation

Creator:: Riley, Thomas H.
Abstract:: The goal of this project was to pave the way for more data-driven decision making when considering safety within Nuclear Engineering by proving the concept of new and innovative accident scenario modeling techniques for the analysis of the economics of nuclear safety margins. To do this, a simple, if extremely...

Experimental Investigation of the Transition to Natural Convection in HTGR Applications using the Oregon State SFSETF

Creator:: Fishler, Joshua D.
Abstract:: High Temperature Gas Reactors (HTGRs) are positioned to disrupt local and global markets via their unique ability to produce carbon-free process heat, high efficiency power generation, and passively safe operational features. However, significant impediments still exist to delay deployment of this particular technology, including a lack of experimental data, verified...
