    • Modeling of fuel-to-steel heat transfer in core disruptive accidents 

      Smith, Russell Charles; Rohsenow, Warren M.; Kazimi, Mujid S. (Cambridge, Mass. : Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, [1980], 1980)
      A mathematical model for direct-contact boiling heat transfer between immiscible fluids was developed and tested experimentally. The model describes heat transfer from a hot fluid bath to an ensemble of droplets of a cooler ...

    • An evaluation of the fast-mixed spectrum reactor 

      Loh, Wee Tee; Driscoll, Michael J.; Lanning, David D. (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, [1980], 1980)
      An independent evaluation of the neutronic characteristics of a gas-cooled fast-mixed spectrum reactor (FMSR) core design has been performed. A benchmark core configuration for an early FMSR design was provided by Brookhaven ...

    • Interfacial effects in fast reactors 

      Saidi, Mohammad Said; Driscoll, Michael J. (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, [1979], 1979)
      The problem of increased resonance capture rates near zone interfaces in fast reactor media has been examined both theoretically and experimentally. An interface traversing assembly was designed, constructed and employed ...
