TL;DR: In this article, the state-of-the-art of heat transfer in nucleate pool-boiling is assessed and a literature review of the parametric trends points out that the major parameters affecting the Heat Transfer Coefficient (HTC) under poolboiling conditions are heat flux, saturation pressure, and thermophysical properties of a working fluid.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the design and application of a computer linkage system, including probabilistic linkage, betting odds and frequency ratios, using "global" and "specific" discriminating powers.
Abstract: Introduction. Part 1 The basics and their application: including probabilistic linkage, betting odds and frequency ratios, using "global" and "specific" discriminating powers. Part 2 Exploiting more of the discriminating power: including what to do with missing identifiers, comparing names, years of birth, places of birth, geographical identifiers and marital status, linked and unlinkable pairs, some pitfalls. Part 3 Saving central processor time: including blocking the files, the preliminary rejections, the comparison sequence and its early cut-off, the application of value-specific discriminating powers. Part 4 Organizing the product: including calculating absolute versus relative odds, setting an "optimum" threshold, grouping the matched pairs. Part 5 Recapitulation and further thoughts. Appendices: A - definitions. B - derivations. C - typical identifier frequencies. D - linking special disease registers. E - errors, their sources and magnitudes. F - calculating the outcome frequencies for a non-existent file of unlinkable pairs. G - constructing a file of randomly matched unlinkable pairs. H - details of phonetic coding systems for names. I - design of a computer linkage system. Bibliography. Index.

TL;DR: The JEFF-3.3 data library as mentioned in this paper is a joint evaluated fission and fusion nuclear data library 3.3 which includes new fission yields, prompt fission neutron spectra and average number of neutrons per fission.
Abstract: The joint evaluated fission and fusion nuclear data library 3.3 is described. New evaluations for neutron-induced interactions with the major actinides $^{235}\hbox {U}$, $^{238}\hbox {U}$ and $^{239}\hbox {Pu}$, on $^{241}\hbox {Am}$ and $^{23}\hbox {Na}$, $^{59}\hbox {Ni}$, Cr, Cu, Zr, Cd, Hf, W, Au, Pb and Bi are presented. It includes new fission yields, prompt fission neutron spectra and average number of neutrons per fission. In addition, new data for radioactive decay, thermal neutron scattering, gamma-ray emission, neutron activation, delayed neutrons and displacement damage are presented. JEFF-3.3 was complemented by files from the TENDL project. The libraries for photon, proton, deuteron, triton, helion and alpha-particle induced reactions are from TENDL-2017. The demands for uncertainty quantification in modeling led to many new covariance data for the evaluations. A comparison between results from model calculations using the JEFF-3.3 library and those from benchmark experiments for criticality, delayed neutron yields, shielding and decay heat, reveals that JEFF-3.3 performes very well for a wide range of nuclear technology applications, in particular nuclear energy.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, X-ray and neutron diffraction studies were carried out on highly ordered (2−3% Li/Ni exchange) layered Li 1-xCo1/3Ni 1/3Mn 1/ 3O2 [(1 − x) = 1.0; 0.8, 0.6, 0., 0.45, 0, 0..30, and 0.04] prepared by chemical delithiation and relithiation.
Abstract: X-ray and neutron diffraction studies were carried out on highly ordered (2−3% Li/Ni exchange) layered Li1-xCo1/3Ni1/3Mn1/3O2 [(1 − x) = 1.0; 0.8, 0.6, 0.45, 0.30, 0.04] prepared by chemical delithiation and relithiation. The studies reveal that the initial R3m phase (O3) is maintained up to extraction of 0.70−0.75 Li and exhibits only ∼1% change in volume over the range of composition. Additional extraction of Li results in the appearance of the O1 phase (trigonal; P3m1), which displays a strong contraction in the c axis by 5.3% and a volume decrease of 7.2%. Oxygen vacancies were not evident in the completely delithiated material. Re-intercalation of lithium in this phase was relatively irreversible, however, resulting in poorly defined mixtures of the O3 and O1 structures that exhibited a large fraction of stacking faults. In contrast, materials that were not delithiated beyond x = 0.30 resulted in fully reversible reformation of the original crystalline O3 phase on re-intercalation. Electrochemical ...

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity of irradiated UO2 fuel is discussed considering the effects of burnup (dissolved and precipitated solid fission products), porosity and fission gas bubbles, deviation from stoichiometry and radiation damage based on single-effect results previously published on SIMFUEL (simulated extended burnup UO 2 fuel) and on radiation damage measurements.
