The pressurized water reactor looks realistic and gives you controls that — we are fairly sure — are greatly simplified compared to the real thing. We suggest you start with the tour before ...

Leading players have significant financial backing already lined up, often from technology companies and future customers.

There is continuing global interest in the development of Small Modular Reactors (SMR). One type of SMR currently under the development in a number of countries is the integral Pressurized Water ...

Although to most the term ‘fission reactor’ brings to mind something close to the commonly operated light-water reactors (LWRs ... the passive safety of these pool-type sodium-cooled reactors ...

The VVER technology is based on a thermal neutron reactor with a two-circuit steam generating system. Pressurized ordinary water is used ... include a spent fuel pool inside the containment ...

Light water reactors (LWRs) are the most common WCRs worldwide and are divided into two types: Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs), which produce steam for the turbine in separate steam generators; and ...

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries plans to develop an advanced light water reactor, an improved version of conventional pressurized water reactors. It will do so jointly with Kansai Electric Power Co ...

Beginning with an overview of ageing and degradation issues in LWRs, the book goes on to discuss corrosion in pressurized water reactors and creep deformation of materials in LWRs. Part two then ...
