THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF A GENERATION IV SCWR NUCLEAR POWER PLANT CYCLE

Abstract

This article presents a flow and thermodynamic analysis of a Generation IV nuclear cycle. An SCWR (Supercritical water reactor) is a high temperature and high pressure reactor that uses water at a temperature above its thermodynamic critical point as the working fluid. The cycle used for the calculations consists of one interstage superheater and 7 regenerative heat exchangers. Division pressure was optimized in view of the cycle efficiency, and the possibility of using another pressure value that would be more beneficial due to the structure of the grid of blades was mentioned
