nuclear reactor coolant

Lithium-7 gained interest for use in nuclear reactor coolants.

Atomics International decided sodium was a more appropriate nuclear reactor coolant than water.

It is both a nuclear reactor coolant and solvent for fertile or fissile material.

In light water reactors and heavy water reactors it doubles as the nuclear reactor coolant.

Intended for use with the larger nozzle diameters found in Nuclear Reactor coolant loops of a pressurised water reactor it has been designed to operate in any orientation.

A reactor pressure vessel (RPV) in a nuclear power plant is the pressure vessel containing the nuclear reactor coolant, core shroud, and the reactor core.

The accident began with failures in the non-nuclear secondary system, followed by a stuck-open pilot-operated relief valve in the primary system, which allowed large amounts of nuclear reactor coolant to escape.

A nuclear reactor coolant is a coolant in a nuclear reactor used to remove heat from the nuclear reactor core and transfer it to electrical generators and the environment.

A nuclear reactor coolant - usually water but sometimes a gas or a liquid metal (like liquid sodium) or molten salt - is circulated past the reactor core to absorb the heat that it generates.

The multidimensional component in RELAP5-3D was developed to allow the user to accurately model the multidimensional flow behavior that can be exhibited in any component or region of a nuclear reactor coolant system.

A molten salt reactor (MSR) is a class of generation IV nuclear fission reactor in which the primary nuclear reactor coolant, or even the fuel itself, is a molten salt mixture.

SHIPPINGPORT, Pa., Nov. 24 (UPI) -- Nuclear reactor coolant leaked into a pressurized relief tank at a Pennsylvania power plant early Tuesday in an "unusual event," officials said.

Today's Columns Scientists who helped the Navy create the submarine-tracking computer system celebrated in the film "The Hunt for Red October" want to deploy like-minded technology to find trouble spots in jet engines, nuclear reactor coolant pumps and electricity-generating steam turbines.

Unlike reactors that use relatively slow low energy (thermal) neutrons, fast-neutron reactors need nuclear reactor coolant that does not moderate or block neutrons (like water does in an LWR) so that they have sufficient energy to fission actinide isotopes that are fissionable but not fissile.
