An introductory text for broad areas of nuclear reactor physics
Nuclear Reactor Physics and Engineering offers information on
analysis, design, control, and operation of nuclear reactors. The
author--a noted expert on the topic--explores the fundamentals and
presents the mathematical formulations that are grounded in
differential equations and linear algebra. The book puts the focus
on the use of neutron diffusion theory for the development of
techniques for lattice physics and global reactor system analysis.
The author also includes recent developments in numerical
algorithms, including the Krylov subspace method, and the MATLAB
software, including the Simulink toolbox, for efficient studies of
steady-state and transient reactor configurations. In addition,
nuclear fuel cycle and associated economics analysis are presented,
together with the application of modern control theory to reactor
operation. This important book: Provides a comprehensive
introduction to the fundamental concepts of nuclear reactor physics
and engineering Contains information on nuclear reactor kinetics
and reactor design analysis Presents illustrative examples to
enhance understanding Offers self-contained derivation of fluid
conservation equations Written for undergraduate and graduate
students in nuclear engineering and practicing engineers, Nuclear
Reactor Physics and Engineering covers the fundamental concepts and
tools of nuclear reactor physics and analysis.
