Abstract In 1929, Donald Othmer discovered that a small amount of non-condensable gases
(NCG) in pure vapor had a great effect on condensation heat transfer coefficient (HTC) …

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

We integrate in the ANSYS CFD code Fluent a model for wall condensation from a vapor–
noncondensable gas mixture. The condensation phenomenon is modeled from first …

Steam condensation plays a crucial role in predicting the pressure behavior and hydrogen
distribution in nuclear power plant containment during a postulated loss-of-coolant accident …

Steam condensation plays an important role in removing heat from the containment of a
nuclear plant during postulated accidents. However, due to the presence of non …

Accurate prediction of steam condensation in the presence of non-condensable gases is
essential for accident analysis in nuclear reactor containments. This study uses the steam …

Non-condensable gas (NCG) released in the multi-effect distillation associated with a
thermal vapor compression (MED-TVC) seawater desalination seriously deteriorates the …

During a hypothetical loss-of-coolant accident or a severe accident in a light water nuclear
reactor (LWR), condensation heat transfer directly affects the pressure behavior and …

To improve the transportation efficiency and reduce the supply cost, the liquefaction
becomes an important technology to store and transport the natural gas. During the …

Modeling methods were developed for passive cooling systems, in which steam condenses
in vertical tubes. Isolation condenser experiments performed in the PANDA facility were …
