Nuclear Reactors by Amir Zacarias Mesquita

This book presents a comprehensive review of studies in nuclear reactors technology from authors across the globe. Topics discussed in this compilation include: thermal hydraulic investigation of TRIGA type research reactor, materials testing reactor and high temperature gas-cooled reactor, decay heat in reactors and spent-fuel pools, present status of two-phase flow studies in reactor components, two-phase flow coolant behavior in boiling water reactors under earthquake condition, simulation of nuclear reactors core, fuel life control in light-water reactors, methods for monitoring and controlling power in nuclear reactors, structural materials modeling for the next generation of nuclear reactors, application of the results of finite group theory in reactor physics, and the usability of vermiculite as a shield for nuclear reactor.
