IgorPioro and Romney Beecher Duffey, "Heat Transfer and Hydraulic Resistancein at Supercritical Pressures in Power Engineering Applications"
English | ISBN: 0791802523 | 2007 | 300 pages | PDF | 10 MB

Mechanical and Nuclear Engineers are currently working on advanced power plantsintended for implementation within the next decade. One such Generation IVconcept is a supercritical, water-cooled nuclear reactor. In addition, thereare already hundreds of supercritical steam generators operating worldwide inthe thermal power industry. These system designs reduce emissions and lowercost by attaining high thermodynamic cycle and economic efficiency, utilizingboth natural and forced circulation flows and optimizing heat exchanger andturbine layout and performance. Development, design, and successful operationof these power-generating units require knowledge of heat transfer, pressuredrop, and thermalhydraulics at supercritical pressures. Demand for reliableinformation is high, and until now, no single book related to this topic hasbeen published.This book brings together and integrates the results from over500 of the latest sources from the global publications devoted to heat transferand hydraulic resistance of fluids flowing inside channels of variousgeometries at near-critical and supercritical pressures. This book is ofinterest to nuclear and mechanical engineers in both industry and academia, whoare concerned with the development and design of next-generation reactors, aswell as engineers and technologists currently working with supercritical steamgenerators and power systems. Included with this book is a free CD containingfully linked references to help readers navigate the welath of material that isprovided.
