Development of a heat pipe module for AC2/ATHLET and transient simulation of an experiment

Abstract A heat pipe module was developed for the thermal hydraulics system code AC2/ATHLET to facilitate the analysis of heat pipe cooled-reactor concepts. The tool enables the transient simulation of liquid metal heat pipes. For validation, an experiment with a potassium heat pipe was successfully simulated. The simu...

Construction and testing of the heat pipes for micro modular reactor applications

Abstract Recently there has been a notable increase in interest in Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and Micro Modular Reactors (MMRs) due to their potential to improve energy supply reliability and reduce carbon emissions in isolated power grids. MMRs use high temperature heat pipes, which typically employ liquid metals s...
