Full Description
Next generation nuclear reactors are expected to contribute to the future energy mix, forming part of the transition to an emission-free energy system. Diagnostics and monitoring are a necessary part of the design and development of the new generation of nuclear power plants.
Reactor diagnostics, particularly methods based on neutron noise analysis, have been used for traditional light and heavy water reactors, and offer benefits for early detection, identification and quantification of incipient failures. Diagnostic techniques will be useful for the next generation of power plants, including small, medium and small modular reactors (SMR), which use alternative coolant types.
To expedite the planning of effective diagnostics, one needs knowledge of what problems might occur, and what methods are suitable for detecting and quantifying those problems. This book conveys a thorough study of the dynamic transfer properties of the main Gen-IV and SMR types.
Chapters cover principles of reactor diagnostics and noise analysis, the structure of the core response in basic planned Gen-IV types and SMRs, a survey of dynamic core transfer calculational codes, zero power noise methods, instrumentation and control systems, and worldwide activities in design and planned diagnostics of SMRs.
Surveillance and Diagnostics of Next Generation Nuclear Reactors is a concise and logically-structured reference for nuclear scientists, researchers and engineers involved in exploring new reactor concepts and developing designs for the coming generation of nuclear power plants.
