The Future of Small and Medium Sized Nuclear Reactors
www.kentlaw.eduSMR Reactors: The IAEA defines “Small” Reactors those with an output under 300 MWe. Today a medium sized reactor would be one with an output between 500 to 700 MWe MWe = Mega Watts of electricity as apposed to a MWt, which is Mega Watts of thermal energy Large Reactors: According to the NRC large commercial plants today
Thermophysical Properties of Materials
www-pub.iaea.orgreactor lines such as advanced water cooled reactors, high temperature gas cooled reactors, liquid metal cooled reactors and accelerator driven systems, including small and medium sized reactors. In addition, there are activities related to other applications of nuclear energy
NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY REVIEW
www.iaea.orgpower systems with large shares of variable renewable sources, includes small and medium sized or modular reactors (SMRs). 9. There is growing interest in using nuclear energy for non-electric applications in desalination, hydrogen production, and district heating and cooling, as well as in several energy-intensive industrial applications.
