The report examines questions of convective heat exchange and heat exchange during phase transformations in chemically reacting systems. Considerable attention is given to experimental and design-theoretical research in N2O4 heat exchange. Mathematical models are given for the thermal design of a nuclear reactor and heat exchange instrumentation working with a chemically reacting heat-transfer agent. (Author)
The IRT-2000 reactor installed in the Institute of Heat and Mass Exchange of the Academy of Sciences of the Belorussian SSR was put in operation in May 1962. Water-cooled water-moderated reactors of the IRT type are simple in design, highly reliable, and safe, while providing great possibilities for experimental work in radiation chemistry, nuclear physics, and biology. Since the IRT-2000 reactor is a prototype, its design did not provide for ...
A homogeneous critical assembly with profiled fuel loading aiming at the equalization of the energy emission in the active zone is described. Characteristics of the critical assembly, scheme of the critical experiment, neutron flux distributions, and fuel distribution and energy emission are discussed.
