The material has been extensively class tested and provides the most comprehensive textbook and reference on the fundamentals of nuclear engineering. It includes a broad range of important areas in the nuclear engineering field; nuclear and atomic theory; nuclear reactor physics, design, control\/dynamics, safety and thermal-hydraulics; nuclear fuel engineering; and health physics\/radiation protection. It also includes the latest information that is missing in traditional texts, such as space radiation. The aim of the book is to provide a source for upper level undergraduate and graduate students studying nuclear engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Atomic and Nuclear Theory 9\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 Historical Review 9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 Models of the Nucleus 10\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Nuclear Reactor Design and Physics 53\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Overall Concept and Description of Nuclear Reactors 53\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Neutron Diffusion 71\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Slowing Down of Neutrons 75\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Criticality and the Steady State 86\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.5 Advanced Reactor Physics 96\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Nuclear Reactor Dynamics and Control 120\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 Overview of Reactor Kinetics Behaviour 120\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.2 Point Reactor Model and the Inhour Equation 125\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.3 Reactor Control 138\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.4 Nuclear Fuel Management 146\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Nuclear Reactor Materials and Fuel Engineering 174\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.1 Nuclear Reactor Materials 174\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.2 Fuel Production 202\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.3 Fuel Element Thermal Performance 218\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.4 Fuel Chemistry 240\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.5 Fuel Restructuring 248\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.6 Fission Product Behaviour 252\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.7 Fuel Performance 285\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 Thermal Hydraulics 314\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.1 Choice of Coolant 314\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.2 Definitions and Simple Two-Phase Flow Relationships 315\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.3 Two-Phase Flow 318\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.4 Pressure Drop 343\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.5 Heat Transfer 380\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e6 Nuclear Reactor Safety 573\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.1 Reactor Licensing and Regulation 573\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.2 General Principles of Reactor Safety 586\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.3 Engineered Safety Features 590\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.4 Reactor Safety Analysis 597\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.5 Reliability and Risk Assessment 619\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.6 Nuclear Reactor Accidents 624\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.7 Radiation Dose Calculations 640\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.8 Nuclear Emergency Response 659\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.9 Fission Product Release and Severe Core Damage Phenomena 669\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e7 Health Physics and Radiation Protection 711\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.1 Interaction of Radiation with Matter 711\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.2 Health Physics and Radiation Protection 730\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.3 Biological Effects of Radiation 763\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.4 Radiation Protection 779\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.5 Contamination Treatment 788\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.6 Space Radiation 788\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 1 Physical Constants and Conversion Factors 811\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 2 Table of Atomic Mass Excesses 813\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 3 Some Values of Nuclear Spins and Parities 900\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 4 Reactor Physics Parameters 903\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 5 Physical and Biological Data for Radionuclides 905\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 6 Cross-Sections of Some Radionuclides 907\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 7 Properties of Elements and Some Molecules 909\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 8 Isotopic Cross-Sections 913\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 9 Direct and Cumulative Thermal Fission Product Yields for Various Fissile Isotopes 926\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 943\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Mechanical engineering \u0026amp; materials [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Mechanical engineering \u0026amp; materials\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Mechanical%20engineering%20\u0026amp;%20materials%20%5BTG%5D%22\"\u003eTG\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52503035969816,"sku":"9781119271499","price":111.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781119271499.jpg?v=1786324639","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/fundamentals-of-nuclear-engineering-hardback-9781119271499","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
