Whenever calm, cloudy weather hits – aka ‘dunkelflaute’ – the Germans scramble to draw coal-fired power from Poland and nuclear power from France, in the absence of which the German grid would totally collapse on a routine basis. Apparently the German hard left that run...
The computer runs the power plant because, as I said, most power plant mishaps happen because of human interaction. The dog keeps people away from the computer. And the guy is just there to feed the dog."After lingering on the title slide a moment longer--"New. Clear. Energy." in ...
A first-of-a kind kit for Nuclear Power Plant's defense against Cyber Attack is successfully developed. Our PCTRAN simulator on a single PC (Blue Team in a drill) is connected to a hacking Red Team's keyboard. One HDML-splitter line grants their monitor to peek into Blue's plant status...
As we mark 10 years since the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami triggered the meltdown of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, and as Japan anticipates hosting the pandemic-postponed Olympics, we revisit the time we spent with Fukushima farmers fighting to continue cultivating organic f...
摘要:In order to determine the risk associated with the presence of hydrogen in a nuclear power plant containment during a hypothetical severe accident, thermal hydraulic codes are used. Amongst other codes, NRG uses the commercial computational fluid dynamics code CFX4 for this purpose...
From build to "go" zeros in on the handoff of a nuclear power plant from contractor to owner- operator that can be a painfully slow exercise in data manage- ment transfer. What's useful for a contractor is often unnecessary for an operator. The article examines enterprise asset management,...
As I mentioned earlier, nuclear submarine batteries are small by diesel submarine standards and will provide power for only a few hours before becoming drained. Before that happens, the submarine either has to be at periscope depth with its emergency diesel generator supporting electrical loads, or...
Implications of near-term coal power plant retirement for SO2 and NOX and life cycle GHG emissions. order in which existing power plants are dispatched to meet electricity demand based on short-run marginal costs, with cheaper plants being dispatched first... A Venkatesh,P Jaramillo,WM Griffin,...
Image Gallery: Inside a Nuclear Power Plant Tour the inside of a nuclear power plant with these illustrative diagrams to learn more about how nuclear power plants work. By Allison Loudermilk How the Nuclear Arms Race Works The nuclear arms race was a frantic era in which several nations tested...
