  2. Variable shunt reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_shunt_reactor

    A traditional shunt reactor has a fixed rating and is either connected to the power line all the time or switched in and out depending on the load. Recently [1] variable shunt reactors (VSRs) have been developed and introduced on the market. The rating of a VSR can be changed in steps: the maximum regulation range depends on the capability of ...

  3. Switchyard reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switchyard_reactor

    Shunt reactors are used in power systems to counteract the effect of the line parasitic capacitance, thereby stabilizing the system voltage within acceptable limits. [1] The utility of shunt reactors for voltage control on lightly-loaded transmission lines was examined in a 1926 paper presented at the AIEE by Edith Clarke . [ 2 ]

  4. Current limiting reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_limiting_reactor

    It is desirable that the reactor does not go into magnetic saturation during a short circuit, so generally an air-core coil is used. At low and medium voltages, air-insulated coils are practical; for high transmission voltages, the coils may be immersed in transformer oil. Installation of air-core coils requires consideration of the magnetic ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zaporozhtransformator

    Zaporozhtransformator (ZTR) is a Private Joint Stock Company, formerly - Zaporozhye Transformer Plant: a company specializing in the design and manufacturing of oil-filled power transformers, shunt reactors and magnetically controlled shunt reactors, with production facilities located in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine.

    FPL also planned to spend about $1.5 billion to increase the capacity of its existing four reactors at Turkey Point and the St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant by a total of about 400 MW by 2012. [ 9 ] On June 30, 2009, FPL submitted a Combined Construction and Operating License (COL) application for two 1,117-MWe Westinghouse AP1000 reactors (Units ...

  7. Magnetically controlled shunt reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetically_Controlled...

    A magnetically-controlled shunt reactor (MCSR, CSR) represents electrotechnical equipment purposed for compensation of reactive power and stabilization of voltage level in high voltage (HV) electric networks rated for voltage classes 36 – 750 kV. MCSR is shunt-type static device with smooth regulation by means of inductive reactance.

  8. Fluidized bed reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluidized_bed_reactor

    A fluidized bed reactor (FBR) is a type of reactor device that can be used to carry out a variety of multiphase chemical reactions. In this type of reactor, a fluid (gas or liquid) is passed through a solid granular material (usually a catalyst ) at high enough speeds to suspend the solid and cause it to behave as though it were a fluid.

  9. Sodium-cooled fast reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium-cooled_fast_reactor

    Pool type sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR) A sodium-cooled fast reactor is a fast neutron reactor cooled by liquid sodium.. The initials SFR in particular refer to two Generation IV reactor proposals, one based on existing liquid metal cooled reactor (LMFR) technology using mixed oxide fuel (MOX), and one based on the metal-fueled integral fast reactor.
