  1. Discussion of Heat Transfer in Nuclear Reactors Spencer Hovey and Nathan Clark ME 340—Heat Transfer Dr. Vladimir Solovjov December 7th, 2005

  2. Layout of a Nuclear Reactor

  3. Transfer across fuel-clad gas gap Fission-productenergy in fuel Conduction through fuel rods Conduction across clad Transferfrom clad surface to coolant Forced convection in coolant out of core Steam Generator Turbine Condenser Heat Transfer Steps Through Nuclear Reactor

  4. Heat Transfer Characteristics of the Nuclear Process • Conduction through the Fuel Rods • Conduction Across the Clad • Forced Convection in Coolant Out of Core
