  2. GE BWR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE_BWR

    Variable speed pumps were replaced with two-speed pumps (each rated at 35,400 US gallons per minute (2.23 m 3 /s) for a discharge pressure head of 865 feet (264 m)), and a flow control valve (adjustable from 22% open to 100% open with a linear flow response) was added to each loop for use in regulating recirculation flow (capable of regulating ...

  3. Advanced boiling water reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_boiling_water_reactor

    The addition of reactor internal pumps (RIP) mounted on the bottom of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) – 10 in total – which achieve improved performance while eliminating large recirculation pumps in containment and associated large-diameter and complex piping interfaces with the RPV (e.g. the recirculation loop found in earlier BWR ...

  4. Circulator pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulator_pump

    A circulator pump for home use. A circulator pump or circulating pump is a specific type of pump used to circulate gases, liquids, or slurries in a closed circuit with small elevation changes. They are commonly found circulating water in a hydronic heating or cooling system.

  5. Yards Creek Generating Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yards_Creek_Generating_Station

    Yards Creek Generating Station is a pumped-storage hydroelectric plant in Blairstown and Hardwick Township in Warren County, New Jersey, United States. The facility is owned by REV Renewables, which purchased it from Public Service Enterprise Group and FirstEnergy in 2020 and 2021. [1] It has an installed capacity of 420 MW.

  6. Steam generator (nuclear power) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_generator_(nuclear...

    Vertical recirculating-type steam generator (typical of Westinghouse and Combustion Engineering-designed reactors) and components. In commercial power plants, there are two to four steam generators per reactor; each steam generator can measure up to 70 feet (21 m) in height and weigh as much as 800 tons.

  7. Circulating water plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulating_Water_Plant

    A circulating water plant or circulating water system is an arrangement of flow of water in fossil-fuel power station, chemical plants and in oil refineries.The system is required because various industrial process plants uses heat exchanger, and also for active fire protection measures.

  8. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

    Warman centrifugal pump in a coal preparation plant application A pair of centrifugal pumps for circulating hot water within a hydronic heating system. Centrifugal pumps are used to transport fluids by the conversion of rotational kinetic energy to the hydrodynamic energy of the fluid flow. The rotational energy typically comes from an engine ...

  9. Liquid-ring pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-ring_pump

    Single-stage vacuum pumps typically produce vacuum to 35 torr (mm Hg) or 47 millibars (4.7 kPa), and two-stage pumps can produce vacuum to 25 torr, assuming air is being pumped and the ring-liquid is water at 15 °C (59 °F) or less. Dry air and 15 °C sealant-water temperature is the standard performance basis, which most manufacturers use for ...
