Nuclear Engineering Theory and Technology of Commercial Nuclear Power

This edition builds on earlier traditions in providing broad subject-area coverage, application of theory to practical aspects of commercial nuclear power, and use of instructional objectives. Like the first edition, it focuses on what distinguishes nuclear engineering from the other engineering disciplines. However, this edition includes reorganization and overall update of descriptions of reactor designs and fuel-cycle steps, and more emphasis on reactor safety, especially related to technical and management lessons learned from the TMI-2 and Chernobyl - 4 accidents.Knief, Ronald A. is the author of 'Nuclear Engineering Theory and Technology of Commercial Nuclear Power' with ISBN 9781560320890 and ISBN 1560320893.
