Nuclear power plant is the station and industrial plant, which produces electricity based on nuclear technology and the heat produced by fission of the atom. The extensive and detailed history of formation, ways of development and the share of NPP s in the energy produced in different countries ...
A 50-year-old concept for a floating nuclear power plant was too far ahead of its time. While it ultimately failed, float-friendly reactors are now the future.
The licensing of a nuclear power plant Recent and growing controversy over nuclear power plants has stemmed, in large part, from problems arising from operating plants. In this study of the plan... DWJ Stever 被引量: 5发表: 1980年 GIS multi-criteria for power plant site selection Malaysia ...
Phase Transformation Behavior and Microstructural Control of High-Cr Martensitic/Ferritic Heat-resistant Steels for Power and Nuclear Plants: A Review The martensitic/ferritic steels have been used as boiler and turbine materials in power plants, and also been selected as potential materials for struct...
Editorials reflected the modern atomic age, and the use of nuclear power became a key issue. The 1955 ‘Nuclear Power and its Utilization’ makes note of US President Dwight Eisenhower’s plans for an international pool of nuclear fuel for peaceful use in power stations — a reasonable idea,...
From the late 1960s on, light-water designs dominated the market for nuclear reactors in most Western countries. Up to that point in time, many national governments, scientists and industrialists had favoured the rival concepts of heavy-water and graphite-moderated plants. The article focuses on...
Nuclear Power The commercial production of nuclear power began in the 1950s and began to increase rapidly in the early 1970s when a number of nuclear power plants began coming online. Although the amount of nuclear power produced has grown steadily, events like the Three Mile Island accident (...
Because nuclear power plants are replacing analog with digital instrumentation and control systems, qualification guidelines for new systems are being reviewed for severe en... TJ Tanaka,SP Nowlen 被引量: 9发表: 2001年 Downwind: A People's History of the Nuclear West 50 {3} HOME ON THE ...
Electricity generated in hydro power stations provide 55 % of the energy used in Norway. The paper focuses on strategies to make electricity from renewable... J Løvseth - 《Renewable Energy》 被引量: 22发表: 1995年 Environmental effects of cooling systems at nuclear power plants - Proceedings...
Nuclear power plays an important role in the global energy economy, but its safety has been a contentious issue for over 50years. Based on new designs of nuclear power plants, new methods of assessing risks, and calculations of cost efficiency, proponents of nuclear power see it as safe and...
