Record 2 2017-04-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Nuclear Fission Reactors
CONT

In the monolithic type pebble bed reactor, the dimension of the reactor core diameter becomes large, and nuclear control for a large-sized reactor having a large output scale is insufficient in a cooled state using only control elements(control rod, boron sphere) inserted into the reflector region. Furthermore, a reactor core control rod, which is forcibly inserted directly into the reactor core, is required in addition to the control elements inserted into the reflector region by gravity drop only. Moreover, cases have been reported that fuel spheres are broken if the control rod is inserted forcibly into the core because the pebble reactor core is full of fuel spheres accumulated inside the reactor core, which causes a serious drawback.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Réacteurs nucléaires de fission
CONT

Dans un HTR [réacteur à haute température], le débit principal d'hélium (plus de 90 % du débit total) sert à refroidir le combustible et le modérateur, qui fournissent respectivement environ 90 % et 10 % de la puissance thermique du cœur. Les débits dérivés refroidissent les barres de contrôle et les structures latérales, dont le réflecteur. Dans un cœur à boulets, le réglage fin du débit par zone radiale de puissance n'est pas possible de par la conception.

Record 4 1993-10-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Palletization
  • Materials Handling
CONT

High level palletizers... pick up the product at a level above the height of a full pallet and form the tier pattern on a bed. The pallet is raised to the bed level, and the product is transferred... to the pallet. Then, the pallet is lowered one layer, and the next tier is formed in the same manner and placed atop the first. This process continues until the pallet reaches the prescribed height. It is then transferred out to be replaced by an empty pallet which is raised to the bed for a repetition of the process.

OBS

In the high level [palletizer], the case or product enters the palletizer at a level approximately 7 feet off the floor.

Domaine(s)
  • Palettisation

DEF

Palettiseur automatique dont l'alimentation en caisses ou produits s'effectue à environ 2 mètres du sol.

OBS

Les palettiseurs dits "à couches" fonctionnent selon le principe d'une formation d'une couche par juxtaposition, côte à côte, de chaque rang formé, à l'aide de poussoirs placés à 90°.

Record 5 1993-10-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Palletization
  • Materials Handling
CONT

The low level palletizer operates at floor level. The pallet is neither raised or lowered, and the tier is formed at low level. The transfer bed or apron is raised or lowered to the appropriate level and the tier is transferred to the pallet. The bed returns to the tier-forming position, and the next layer is formed. This is repeated until the pallet is full. After the full pallet is discharged, an empty one is transferred into the load station, and the process is repeated.
