Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Advances in Molten Salt Reactors: Developments, Challenges and Opportunities comprehensively reviews a variety of molten salt reactor designs, focusing on aspects of neutronics, thermal-hydraulics, chemistry, material and safety characteristics to give the reader a detailed understanding of each design's underlying dynamic and purpose. Editors Dr. Mark Ho, Professor Massimiliano Frantoni, and Professor Huan Heng Yeoh, along with their team of expert contributors, combine their experience and knowledge to analyze a variety of design options to ensure engineers are able to make well informed decisions for the most effective energy spectrum for their plants, including salt and material selection, instrumentation challenges and experimental capabilities. This book presents the rapid developments made in molten salt designs from investing countries such as China, the US, UK, Canada and considers the work of a variety of key pioneering companies. It will be particularly valuable to practicing and researching nuclear engineers and graduate students of advanced nuclear reactor development.
