Описание: Reviews the current state of technology regarding combustible gas related safety issues in water cooled nuclear reactors, with a specific focus on post-Fukushima Daiichi accident developments. The recent results obtained from experimental and analytical research on hydrogen/combustible gas behaviour are discussed.
Описание: The rapid pace of technological change constantly gives rise to new ethical dilemmas. This provides a practical introduction for engineering students that emphasizes ethical decision-making. The authors situate engineering ethics in the wider context of business and environmental ethics and guide students through case studies emphasizing value conflicts often encountered in engineering.
Описание: Illustrates the state of the art in supercritical water cooled reactor (SCWR) research and development. This is a key supporting publication to researchers and engineers pursuing the development of SCWRs or equipment/components operating at supercritical pressures.
Описание: IAEA Member States have expressed relevant interest in the development and deployment of small and medium-sized or modular reactors (SMRs) to help cover their energy needs in the coming decades. SMR designs may include technological characteristics that differ significantly from those of the large nuclear power plants that are commercially available. Those SMR characteristics can represent a challenge when the existing design requirements, as established in IAEA Safety Standards Series No. SSR-2/1 (Rev. 1) Safety of Nuclear Power Plants: Design, are intended to be applied to SMRs. This publication focuses on the engineering judgement necessary to apply each of the design requirements in SSR-2/1 (Rev. 1), and also the entire set of requirements, to light water cooled and high temperature gas cooled SMRs. The publication includes the common ground reached by representatives from regulatory bodies, technical and scientific support organizations (TSOs) and SMR design organizations regarding the applicability of the design requirements to both SMR technologies. The insights provided are also intended to contribute to motivating further progress in the harmonization of national and international views on safety approaches for SMR technologies. This publication is intended for use by organizations dealing with nuclear power plant design or operation, and by regulatory bodies and TSOs, particularly from countries that are initiating or enlarging nuclear power programmes that include SMR units.
