This study focused on state-of-the-art and review of condensation heat transfer for small
modular reactors (SMR). Nuclear reactors adopt passive containment cooling systems …

The small modular reactor (SMR) is a promising option with added safety features,
economical manufacturing, reliable parts, portability, and scalable energy capacity that emits …

Abstract The evaluation of Passive Autocatalytic Recombiners (PARs) performance has
been foreseen from the EU stress tests in the framework of a complementary and …

The generic severe accident management guidelines (SAMG) were developed as a
response to TMI-2 accident to improve the defense-in-depth (DiD) concept of light water …

Abstract AP1000® Generation III+ reactor bases its safety concept on passive systems,
differently from the previous Generation II reactors. This fact has led the approximations and …

Containment as the last barrier of defence in depth strategy plays the most important role in
protecting the environment and public from the release of radioactive material. As a result …

Containment safety analyses of Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) rely on the use of Lumped
Parameters (LP) codes, and therefore, on pressure and temperature averaged values. In …

One of the main goals of severe accident management strategies is to maintain containment
integrity to prevent radioactive release into the environment. As a result, containment …

AP1000® is a Generation III+ reactor in which all safety systems relay on passive elements.
AP1000 containment includes an In-containment Refueling Water Storage Tank (IRWST), a …

Reactor dynamic tests, which are categorized as one of the power start-up test groups, are
the most complex tests during commissioning of the new nuclear power plants. This paper …
