Numerical investigation on the effect of transversal fluid field deformation on heat transfer in a rod bundle with mixing vanes
Tas-Koehler, Sibel; Lecrivain, Gregory; Krepper, Eckhard; Unger, Sebastian; Hampel, Uwe (Elsevier BV, 2020-05-01)
Spacer grids of fuel rod assemblies are equipped with vanes, which promote flow mixing and turbulence within and across the sub-channels, thereby enhancing the heat transfer. First, a literature study about the various effect of the spacer grid has on the sub-channel thermo-hydrodynamics is provided. It follows, that the multiple effects on the vane angle are insufficiently understood. The effect of the vane angle on design parameters, namely the evolution of the Nusselt number, the pressure drop, the cross...
Development of a radioecological model for accidental release of radionuclides
Unver, O.; Kocar, C.; Tuncel, G. (Carl Hanser Verlag, 2020-10-01)
A dynamic radioecological model was developed to estimate radiation doses and stochastic health risks due to atmospheric releases in case of a nuclear reactor accident. Activities in some foodstuffs, feedstuffs and grass, and doses from different pathways for age groups and stochastic risks can be calculated by the model. Dynamic features include food harvesting, sowing times, feeding regimes, and the growing up of a person. The model can be coupled to any atmospheric dispersion model which can calculate ra...
Sensitivity and uncertainty analysis for a radioecological model
Unver, O.; Kocar, C.; Tuncel, G. (Carl Hanser Verlag, 2020-10-01)
Uncertainty and sensitivity analysis were conducted for a radioecological model which was developed and applied for severe accident scenario for Akkuyu NPP in Turkey. Uncertainty was investigated in the doses and activity concentrations. Sensitivity analysis was conducted to find out most influencing parameters on the doses. 96 parameters, related with foodstuffs, feedstuffs and grass, inhalation rate and reduction factor for external irradiation, and transfer of Cs-137, Cs-134 and I-131 isotopes, were stud...
The effect of soluble boron on the burnup at different enrichments and assemblies
Gündüz, Güngör; Ajwah, Yousef (Elsevier BV, 1989-5)
The effect of boron on the optimum burnup was investigated at different assemblies for enriched fuels. As the enrichment increases, an alteration in the assembly type is needed for the optimum specific power. This alteration can be made at lower enrichments due to the presence of boron. The optimum specific power is shifted toward the high enrichment fuels when the assembly number is increased. If a fuel of high enrichment is first burnt in a highly hardened neutron spectrum and later in a softer spectrum t...
Use of poly(methyl methacrylate) in radioactive waste management: II. Monte Carlo simulations
Ozdemir, Tonguc; Usanmaz, Ali (Elsevier BV, 2009-11-01)
Radioactive waste is generated from the nuclear applications and it should properly be managed in a radioactive waste management system. Different methods are available for treatment and conditioning of radioactive waste. Polymers can be used in the radioactive waste management as an embedding matrix. Poly(methyl methacrylate (PMMA) is a possible candidate material that can be used in the low level radioactive waste management. In this study, based on total resistible dose for PMMA, maximum waste activity t...
