Natural circulation system is very important in the nuclear reactor system, especially for the
safety in the operation of nuclear reactor. The natural circulation characteristics are different …

Low-pressure two-phase flow instabilities can potentially challenge start-up transients of
water-cooled nuclear reactors. Predicting oscillations caused by flow instability is therefore …

The two-group coupled model with IATE is benchmarked with the recently available
adiabatic phase-change flow datasets. The current state of adiabatic phase-change data is …

The stability analysis of a natural circulation integrated self-pressurized water reactor is
investigated by the Lyapunov approach. The analysis of the pressurized water reactors …

Natural circulation is employed in new designs of light water reactors to enhance passive
safety by maintaining flow and heat removal without pumps. Under low-pressure and low …

Deep pool nuclear reactor (DPNR) is a novel pool-type reactor, which has shown great
potential in seawater desalination and district heating. In this paper, the thermal–hydraulic …
