GEN-IV Webinar – Development of In-Service Inspection Rules for Sodium-Cooled Fast Reactors Using the System Based Code Concept
This webinar introduces the development of ISI rules for SFRs using the System Based Code (SBC) concept.
This webinar introduces the development of ISI rules for SFRs using the System Based Code (SBC) concept.
This GEN IV webinar, presented by Dr. Song Danrong, chief designer at the Nuclear Power Institute of China, discussed China’s Multi-purpose – ACP100 Design and Project Progress.
This presentation outlines strategies for the treatment and processing of MSR-type wastes from concepts of the reconditioning and recycling of certain components to partitioning and direct immobilization of other waste components.
This webinar discussed austenitic stainless steels, which are widely used as in-core materials in current nuclear systems.
This GIF-IAEA-NEA joint webinar addressed the Role of Nuclear Energy in Reducing CO2 Emissions. The event featured 20-minute presentations from each of our guest speakers, followed by a 30-minute panel discussion in response to audience questions.
Benjamin Jourdy works on a methodology based on bibliography synthesis and experimental results, leading to the conception of a new mock-up dedicated to this study.
The presentation showed the design proposition for this SFR reactor including the experience feedback from European experience on Phénix, Superphénix, EFR and ASTRID. This design includes all improvements in response to the last safety rules issued after the Fukushima incident. Finally, the first calculations performed for the design validation are also explained with the necessary R&D.
This webinar reviewed the designs of heat-pipe microreactors, steady-state and transient simulation of MAGNET by SAM, to explore the performance limit by heat transfer and temperature distribution.
This webinar helped remove any mystery associated with the graded approach. Mr. Chermak asserted there are only two ways to grade one’s approach to Quality Assurance — and they are very simple.
This webinar provided a technical overview of this In-Service Inspection & Repair program that involves specific international collaborations done through GEN-IV mainly. It was presented by Dr. François Baqué who works as a Senior Expert on inspection for fast reactors at CEA Cadarache IRESNE in the Nuclear Technology Department.
