THERMAL-HYDRAULIC SIMULATION AND EVALUATION OF A NATURAL CIRCULATION THERMOSYPHON LOOP FOR A REACTOR CAVITY COOLING SYSTEM OF A HIGH-TEMPERATURE REACTOR

Thermal-hydraulic simulation and evaluation of a natural circulation thermosyphon loop for a reactor cavity cooling system of a high-temperature reactor

The investigation into a full-scale 27 m high, by 6 m wide, thermosyphon loop.The simulation model is based on a one-dimensional axially-symmetrical control volume approach, where the loop is divided into a series of discreet control volumes.The three conservation equations, namely, mass, momentum and energy, were applied to these control volumes a

Genetic characterisation of the Theileria annulata cytochrome b locus and its impact on buparvaquone resistance in bovine

Control of tropical theileriosis, caused by the apicomplexan Theileria annulata, depends on the use of a single drug, buparvaquone, the efficacy of which is Chemistry compromised by the emergence of resistance.The present study was undertaken to improve understanding of the role of mutations conferring buparvaquone resistance in T.annulata, and the

Heterogenic nature of guerrilla gardening

Pulls For some time now, researchers from various academic disciplines have been engaged in the study of green guerrilla gardening, a grassroots activity involving the planting of vegetation in public spaces.In essence, they view it as a social movement with the objective of reclaiming control of public space and modifying its functionality.However
