This paper reviews the smallness, modularity and reactor-design aspects of emerging small
modular reactors (SMRs). It is shown that small (whether in physical size or power level) …

Steam generator tube leakage and/or rupture (SGTL/R) is one of the safety issues for pool
type liquid metal cooled fast reactors. During SGTL/R, water is injected from high-pressure …

The characterization and modelling of the flow features in gas and heavy liquid metal two-
phase flow are required for the development of next generation nuclear reactor systems. In …

The occurrence of a steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) accident in a lead-bismuth cooled
fast reactor results in the formation of steam bubbles in the liquid lead-bismuth eutectic …

Pool-type primary system can improve the economy of lead-cooled fast reactors. However,
partially filled pool of heavy liquid metal poses safety concerns related to seismic loads …

摘要当铅铋快堆发生蒸汽发生器传热管破裂(Steam Generator Tube Rupture, SGTR) 事故后,
一回路高温液态铅铋合金(Lead-Bismuth Eutectic, LBE) 与二回路高压过冷水相互作用产生大量 …

In this paper a neutronic study of the homogeneous and heterogeneous core configuration
for americium transmutation in an ELFR-like reactor loaded with nitride fuel was performed …

Liquid metal-cooled reactor (LMR), including lead-cooled fast reactor (LFR), may have
strong positive void reactivity coefficient due to the hard neutron spectrum, which is …

As part of the generation IV reactors (GENIV), the European lead-cooled fast reactor (ELFR)
is one of the most promising candidates to be part of the European energy framework in the …

Harsh coolant environment in lead-cooled fast reactors (LFRs) can cause steam generator
tube leakage and/or rupture (SGTL/R). Steam from secondary side can then be entrained by …
