This book covers the basics behind thermal hydraulics. It explores the characteristics of power reactors, thermal design principles, and how reactors generate heat. The text also presents transport equations for single- and two-phase flows. The authors discuss the thermodynamics of nuclear energy conversion systems, including nuclear power plants and a simplified power system. They also consider the thermal analysis of fuel, single-phase fluid mechanics and heat transfer, and two-phase flow dynamics and heat transfer. The final chapter presents a steady-state analysis of a single heated channel. A solutions manual is available for qualifying instructors.

Pretty much the base of everything you need to know May 29, 2008
By Nathan Devine This book covers almost all aspects of thermal hydrolics in a nuclear reactor. It even has multiple correlations for flow through a core, and in general is totally dedicated to nuclear systems, unlike most heat transfer or fluid flow books. If you buy this book you would be smart to keep it over selling it back to the bookstore.
