Abstract:: Detection of reactor antineutrinos for non-proliferation applications has been researched extensively across the globe and is considered as a potential technology to remotely monitor reactor operations without any intrusions to reactor components. Reactor antineutrino detection experiments have been conducted in the past and have proven successful in detecting the changes...

Creator:: Peguero, Lara M.
Abstract:: Interest in increased fuel supply stability has driven an investigation into possible alternate fuel for use in the WWR-SM research reactor at the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Uzbekistan. The WWR-SM is a high-power, pool-type research reactor currently utilizing IRT-4M fuel made by a single Russian supplier. A candidate for...

Creator:: Strohecker, Mark F.
Abstract:: The OSU/APEX thermal hydraulic test facility models the passive safety systems of the Westinghouse AP600 advanced light water reactor design. Numerous experiments have been performed to test these systems, the one of focus here is the station blackout scenario. This experiment simulated the complete loss of AC power to all...

Abstract:: The subject of this thesis is the development of a nodal discretization of the low-order quasi-diffusion (QDLO) equations for global reactor core calculations. The advantage of quasi-diffusion (QD) is that it is able to capture transport effects at the surface between unlike fuel assemblies better than the diffusion approximation. We...

Creator:: Soldatov, Alexey I.
Abstract:: In order to address the energy needs of developing countries and remote communities, Oregon State University has proposed the Multi-Application Small Light Water Reactor (MASLWR) design. In order to achieve five years of operation without refueling, use of 8% enriched fuel is necessary. This dissertation is focused on core design...
