An experimental investigation was conducted in a closed natural circulation (NC) loop to
study the characteristics of pressure drop oscillations (PDO) under low pressure condition. A …

Several design basis accidents such as loss of coolant accident (LOCA) and main steam
line break (MSLB) of pressurized light water reactor could threaten the integrity of …

The objective of the present experimental study is to investigate the effect of inlet throttling
on the thermohydraulic stability of a large scale water-based Reactor Cavity Cooling System …

In the ocean environment, the thermal fluid system installed on the ship moves with the
waves. This unsteady transient motion imposes additional body forces on the liquid …

Flashing-driven natural circulation techniques have been widespreadly applied in advanced
reactor designs due to its prominent advantages in the aspects of high reliability, cost …

Direct contact condensation (DCC) as a complex thermal-hydraulic phenomenon has been
the subject of a great deal of research under forced flow conditions. It is an interesting …

Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) have been a very promising development in nuclear power
over the last two decades. SMRs are defined as nuclear reactors with a power output of less …

Flashing instability is a two-phase flow instability widely reported in low-pressure natural
circulation that induces undesirable flow oscillations with large magnitudes challenging the …

The passive containment cooling system is crucial important for marine nuclear power
