Handbook on Thermal Hydraulics in Water-Cooled Nuclear Reactors

Handbook on Thermal Hydraulics of Water-Cooled Nuclear Reactors: Procedures and Applications is the Third volume in a three-volume set edited by Professors Francesco D’Auria and Yassin Hassan. Based on the popular 2017 publication, Thermal-Hydraulics of Water-Cooled Nuclear Reactors, this third volume includes all new chapters which delve deeper into the topic, adding context and practical examples to help the reader apply their learning to their own setting. Topics covered include experimental thermal-hydraulics and instrumentation, numerics, scaling and containment in thermal-hydraulics, as well as a title dedicated to good practices in verification and validation. Handbook on Thermal Hydraulics of Water-Cooled Nuclear Reactors: Procedures and Applications is a valuable reference for graduate and undergraduate students of nuclear or thermal engineering, as well as researchers in nuclear thermal-hydraulics and reactor technology, engineers working in simulation and modeling of nuclear reactors, and engineers and technicians’ nuclear settings. Nuclear operators, code developers and safety engineers will also benefit from the practical guidance provided. Part of a 3-volume set of handbooks which present a comprehensive analysis of the connection between nuclear power and thermal hydraulics Includes end-of-chapter questions, quizzes and exercises to confirm understanding and provides solutions in an appendix Covers applicable nuclear reactor safety considerations and design technology throughout
