Verification of a reactor physics calculation scheme for the CROCUS reactor

Andreas Pautz, Daniel Jerôme Siefman, Mathieu Hursin, Adolfo Rais, Gaëtan Girardin

CROCUS is a zero power (100 W) reactor of the Laboratory for Reactor Physics and Systems Behavior (LRS) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL). It is used for teaching and research purposes. Its modeling has relied so far on diffusio ...

Bromate catalytic reduction in continuous mode using metal catalysts supported on monoliths coated with carbon nanofibers

Lioubov Kiwi

Nitrogen-doped and un-doped carbon nanofibers layers, denoted as N-CNFs and CNFs respectively, coating the walls of cordierite monoliths have been used as support for Pd and Ru catalyst. They have been tested in bromate reduction in batch and continuous op ...

Neutronics Experiments and Analysis Related to Strong Moderation Heterogeneity in LWRs

Dominik Rätz

The Supercritical-Water-Cooled Reactor (SCWR) is the Generation IV reactor concept most closely related to current light water reactors (LWRs). The SCWR builds on the vast experience with today's LWRs and supercritical coal-fired power plants. Water at sup ...

Single- and Two-Phase Flow Modeling for Coupled Neutronics/Thermal-Hydraulics Transient Analysis of Advanced Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactors

Aurélia Chenu

Nuclear power is nowadays in the front rank as regards helping to meet the growing worldwide energy demand while avoiding an excessive increase in greenhouse gas emissions. However, the operating nuclear power plants are mainly thermal-neutron reactors and ...

Extents of Reaction, Mass Transfer and Flow for Gas-Liquid Reaction Systems

Dominique Bonvin, Michael Amrhein, Nirav Pravinbhai Bhatt

For gas-liquid reaction systems with inlet and outlet streams, this paper proposes a linear transformation to decompose the numbers of moles vector into five distinct parts, namely, the extents of reaction, the extents of mass transfer, the extents of inle ...

Estimation of the fast neutron fluence at control rod tips using a 3-D diffusion/2-D transport multi-step calculation scheme

Rakesh Chawla, Hakim Ferroukhi

This paper presents the development and application of a methodology to estimate, using conventional deterministic lattice/core analysis methods, the fast neutron fluence at the tips of control rods inserted during operation in PWR reactors. The developed ...

Application of the shaped electrode technique to a large area rectangular capacitively coupled plasma reactor to suppress standing wave nonuniformity

Christoph Hollenstein, Alan Howling, Laurent Fabien Hubert Sansonnens, Hannes Schmidt

The electromagnetic standing wave effect can become the main source of nonuniformity limiting the use of very high frequency in large area reactors exceeding 1 m(2) required for industrial applications. Recently, it has been proposed and shown experimental ...

Electromagnetic field nonuniformities in large area, high-frequency capacitive plasma reactors, including electrode asymmetry effects

Christoph Hollenstein, Alan Howling, Laurent Fabien Hubert Sansonnens

Electromagnetic wave propagation effects can give rise to important limitations for processing uniformity in large area, radio-frequency (rf) capacitive plasma reactors. The electromagnetic wavefield solution is derived for a capacitive, high-frequency, cy ...

Characterization of a high-density, large-area VHF plasma source

Hannes Schmidt

Feasibility Study of Shaped Electrode The objective of this project was a feasibility study of a novel, large-area plasma reactor for thin film production, based on a shaped electrode technique ("lens") to compensate the standing wave non-uniformity. Cyli ...
