Handbook of Generation IV Nuclear Reactors, Second Edition is a
fully revised and updated comprehensive resource on the latest
research and advances in generation IV nuclear reactor concepts.
Editor Igor Pioro and his team of expert contributors have updated
every chapter to reflect advances in the field since the first
edition published in 2016. The book teaches the reader about
available technologies, future prospects and the feasibility of
each concept presented, equipping them users with a strong skillset
which they can apply to their own work and research.
Handbook for Transversely Finned Tubes Heat Exchangers Design
contains detailed experimental data, correlations, and design
methods for designing and improving the performance of finned tube
heat exchangers. It covers the three main types, circular finned,
square finned, and helical finned tube bundles. Based on extensive
experimental studies and tested at leading design and research
institutions, this handbook provides an extensive set of materials
for calculating and designing convective surfaces from transversely
finned tubes, with a particular emphasis on power plant
applications.
Handbook of Generation IV Nuclear Reactors presents information on
the current fleet of Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) with water-cooled
reactors (Generation III and III+) (96% of 430 power reactors in
the world) that have relatively low thermal efficiencies (within
the range of 32 36%) compared to those of modern advanced thermal
power plants (combined cycle gas-fired power plants - up to 62% and
supercritical pressure coal-fired power plants - up to 55%).
Moreover, thermal efficiency of the current fleet of NPPs with
water-cooled reactors cannot be increased significantly without
completely different innovative designs, which are Generation IV
reactors. Nuclear power is vital for generating electrical energy
without carbon emissions. Complete with the latest research,
development, and design, and written by an international team of
experts, this handbook is completely dedicated to Generation IV
reactors.
