..., Beijing, China 1. ABSTRACT Spent fuel is nuclear fuel that has been exposed to radiation, usually produced by nuclear reactors in nuclear power plants, and is an inevitable product of the development of nuclear energy. Spent fuel contains a large amount of radioactive elements, which are characterized...

... for this proposed development. Keywords: Spread Spectrum Time Domain Reflectrometry, electrical, analysis, nuclear reactors 1.0 INTRODUCTION Current techniques for locating electrical line faults include visual inspection, impedance testing, and reflectometry. Visual inspection is the most common means to find...

... 23 02 2010 Consideration of advanced power plant such as nuclear reactors cooled by water at pressures above the critical value has stimulated a renewed interest in heat transfer to supercritical pressure fluids. Severe deterioration in the effectiveness of heat transfer can...

.... Significantly, small mobile nuclear reactors are now under development and testing that could provide high-temperature working fluids (both gaseous and liquid) at lower unit energy cost to replace current electrical heating. Nuclear generated steam is particularly cost effective and technically attractive...
