Thermal hydraulics analysis of supercritical water reactor core design Jianguo Zhong‚ Michael Podowski Abstract: This paper started with a literature survey of development the supercritical flow reactor core design‚ various coolant flow path designs were discussed: conventional one-pass flow arrangement‚ two-pass and the three-pass coolant flow geometry. A simple 1-D model was developed for the one-pass and two-pass flow design to find the maximum flow bulk temperature and case temperature in

The way a reactor works is in a nuclear power plant water is turned into steam‚ which drives turbine generators to produce electricity. At nuclear power plants‚ the heat to make the steam is created when the uranium atoms split which is called fission. Theory behind nuclear reactions: it is made from the basic principles of physics. Reactors make fissions reactions in uranium fuel‚ which is controlled by moderators and neutron poisons. What are breeder reactors? A nuclear reactor the creates fissile
