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

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 ...

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 ...

He’s done it for real. His memories of working at a Westinghouse Pressurized Water Reactor over 30 years ago are so sharp that he’s been building a nuclear reactor “simulator” running on ...

The MSR technology was championed by ORNL Director Alvin Weinberg, who co-invented the pressurized water reactor (water-cooled reactor run at high pressure), which is at the heart of two-thirds of the ...

It consists of uranium hexafluoride that is a white-grey, waxy solid at standard temperature and pressure. LEU is made by enriching ... suitable to make fuel for a typical light water reactor, the ...

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 ...

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 ...
