Measurements of adhesion force between single particles and clusters interacting with some VHTR structural steels
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)The adhesion force and work of adhesion between aerosols (graphite and silver) generated in very high temperature reactors (VHTRs) and interacting with structural materials are presented. The method involves using Atomic ... -
Measurements of fission product sorption on graphite
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Nuclear source estimations for high and very high gas temperature reactors (VHTRs) require data for fission product (FP) adsorption on graphite at high temperatures. The adsorption and vapor pressures of silver on nuclear ... -
Modeling and experimental study of polyurethane foaming and gelling reactions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)Numerous reactions take place within a polyurethane polymerization process. Homogeneous and catalytic reactions occur at the same time and intermediate compounds are formed. As the reaction proceeds, long chains of polymer ... -
Oxidation behavior of very high temperature reactor (VHTR) candidate materials: 316l stainless steel, Alloy 617, and Incoloy-800H
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)High temperature nuclear reactors require alloys to perform well at temperatures around 1000 to 1400 K. The oxidation behavior of three high temperature reactor candidate materials, 316 L stainless steel, alloy 617, and ... -
Oxidation of nuclear- and matrix-grade graphite for VHTR air ingress accident scenarios
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)One of the most severe accidents anticipated for the Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR) is an air ingress accident caused by a pipe break, where the reactor vessel and core become fully immersed in air as the core ... -
Polyurethenae foams and engineering education
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Thermal conductivity [subscript] of a rigid polyurethane (PU) foam was successfully simulated, during which the impact of index of isocyanate, mixing ...
