  2. Fukushima nuclear accident (Unit 3 Reactor) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_nuclear_accident...

    On 1 July, the spent fuel pool was switched from the water-injection cooling system to a circulatory cooling system. [43] After 2 July, the Reactor was cooled using fresh water treated by the on-site water treatment plant. [43] On 11 January 2012, radioactively contaminated water was found in two tunnels.

  3. Computer cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cooling

    Liquid cooling is typically combined with air cooling, using liquid cooling for the hottest components, such as CPUs or GPUs, while retaining the simpler and cheaper air cooling for less demanding components. The IBM Aquasar system uses hot water cooling to achieve energy efficiency, the water being used to heat buildings as well. [40] [41]

  4. 2016 Fukushima earthquake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_Fukushima_earthquake

    It struck off mainland Japan 35 km (22 mi) east-southeast of Namie, Fukushima Prefecture at 05:59 JST on November 22, 2016 (20:59 Nov 21 UTC), at a depth of 9.0 km ± 1.7. [3] [4] The earthquake was initially reported as having a magnitude of 7.3 by the Japan Meteorological Agency, who later upgraded the magnitude to 7.4, while the United ...

  5. Heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

    The system normally has eight main components: a compressor, a reservoir, a reversing valve which selects between heating and cooling mode, two thermal expansion valves (one used when in heating mode and the other when used in cooling mode) and two heat exchangers, one associated with the external heat source/sink and the other with the ...

  6. Molten-salt reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molten-salt_reactor

    The FHR/AHTR reactor uses a solid-fuel system along with a molten fluoride salt as coolant. One version of the Very-high-temperature reactor (VHTR) under study was the liquid-salt very-high-temperature reactor (LS-VHTR). It uses liquid salt as a coolant in the primary loop, rather than a single helium loop.

  7. Techno-economic assessment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techno-economic_assessment

    To begin with, the system is defined in the form of a process flow diagram (PFD). A typical PFD shows major equipment and material streams. A typical PFD shows major equipment and material streams. The term ‘material stream’ refers to liquids, solids, or gases entering or exiting the system, or flowing from one piece of equipment to another.

  8. Axial compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_compressor

    An animated simulation of an axial compressor. The static blades are the stators.. An axial compressor is a gas compressor that can continuously pressurize gases.It is a rotating, airfoil-based compressor in which the gas or working fluid principally flows parallel to the axis of rotation, or axially.

  9. Heat treating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_treating

    Phase diagram of an iron-carbon alloying system. Phase changes occur at different temperatures (vertical axis) for different compositions (horizontal axis). The dotted lines mark the eutectoid (A) and eutectic (B) compositions. The specific composition of an alloy system will usually have a great effect on the results of heat treating.
