  1. Dyke, J.M. - Selected Works, by J.M. Dyke, Individual Contributions, 1950-01-01. Doc type: Essay.
    Summary: John M. Dyke B.A.Sc., P.Eng: John was involved in steam generator design for 35 years, from 1945 to 1980. He lead the design team for the Pickering A nuclear station in the mid 1960s. They were the first with internal economizer and integral steam drums. The 48 steam generators at this four-reactor station have had exemplary performance. John obtained his B.A.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Toronto in 1943 and joined the Royal Canadian Navy Volunteer Reserve as an Engineering Officer posted with the Royal Navy doing convoy duty in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. When he returned to Canada he worked at the Naval Research Establishment in Halifax developing anti-acoustic torpedo gear. Coincidentally, these were parallel rods that vibrated in water streams. After the war John did steam boiler engineering at several firms and became Chief Engineer of Dominion Bridge’s new boiler department in 1958. Here he attended a special course on nuclear design and submitted bids for early nuclear steam generators and reheaters. In 1964 he joined Babcock and Wilcox Canada, first as a project engineer on fossil-fired boilers and then to head up the new nuclear steam generating section where they developed a new 500 MWe design for Pickering A. He is a registered professional engineer with the province of Ontario. He has been honored by the American Society of Mechanical Engineering as a life member for outstanding lifetime achievement. The Canadian Nuclear Association also honored him with their Outstanding Contribution Award for designing the steam generators used in CANDU stations. John retired from BWC in 1980.

  6. The Effect of Bypass Characteristics on Parallel Channel Flow Instabilities, by M.B. Carver, AECL, 1969-01-02. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: This article is definitive because nobody could figure out why all the instability codes gave stability thresholds well below the measured threshold power in the experiments done at Canadian Westinghouse. The paper determines analytically that this is because the small bypass stabilized the experimental system as it could not maintain a constant pressure drop, which all the codes assumed at step 1.

  10. Efficient Integration over Discontinuities in Ordinary Differential Equation Simulation, by M.B. Carver, AECL, 1978-01-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: Efficient integration algorithms for ordinary differential equations take integration steps that are as large as the error control criteria permit. Events or discontinuities in equation definition are often implicitly defined to occur when a variable reaches a critical value, for example a fuel rod surface reaching saturation temperature, and this requires the integrator to basically restart the calculation precisely at the point of change. Instead integrators will "hunt" for the discontinuity wasting a lot of computer time, and will eventually "step over" the discontinuity using integration points either side of the event. This paper shows that if the discontinuity is defined and monitored as an additional part of the equation set, such a restart can be optimized, thus ensuring that the event will be defined as an integration restart point.

  11. The method of lines and the advective equation, by M.B. Carver and H.W. Hinds, AECL, 1978-08-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: This article showed that the common approach of first order differencing, used in almost all thermalhydraulic computer programs, would not properly solve the simplest hyperbolic PDE on the market. Despite the errata, it is Carver's most cited publication and laid the foundations for many higher order analyses by others, and Carver's pseudo-characteristic method of lines (PCMOL) solution of the thermalhydraulic conservation equations.

  12. Pseudo-characteristic method of lines solution of first-order hyperbolic equation systems, by M.B. Carver, AECL, 1980-01-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: This paper introduced a new concept, pseudo-characteristics, which allows the directionality dictated by the method of characteristics to be applied on a fixed grid basis. This is the method that N.P. Kolev Nuclear Institute of Bulgaria and M. B. Carver used to apply to the EVUT form of the thermalhydraulic conservation equations at the OECD/CSNI conference on two phase flow, Pasedena, 1981. In this MACS paper, discretization of the PDEs is discussed, using higher order upwind biased derivatives of each of the Lagrange polynomials and the Hermite polynomials. Results are shown for incompressible flow in a hydraulic jump and for compressible flow in the EVET thermalhydraulic conservation equations.

  14. A Method of Limiting Intermediate Volume Fraction in Iterative Two-Fluid Computations, by M.B. Carver, AECL, 1982-01-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: This is seminal and the core contribution in Carver's thesis. The ICE guys, Harlow & Amsden and the IPSA guys, Spalding & Patankar had not got it quite right for air/water conditions where the water totally dominates the pressure field calculation when it is based on mass flux balance, as this is dominated by the water component and neglects continuity of the air. Herein, a volumetric balance fixes that and the calculation also converges better with the constraint mentioned in the title.

  15. Two Dimensional Modelling of the Homogenizing Effects of Flow Obstructions in Two Fluid Flow, by M.B. Carver and M. E. Salcudean, AECL, 1984-12-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: It is well known that obstructions in two fluid flow have the effect of homogenizing the two fluid mixture, resulting not only in a more uniform phase distribution, but also in a significant reduction of the ratio of fluid velocities. This paper describes a 2D, 2Fluid computer program written by the first author to do proof of principal studies of 2fluid redistribution around bends and past obstacles. The details necessary for modelling air/water flows in these geometries have been introduced here before extending the work to 3D. The paper shows that these phase redistribution effects can be modelled using the two fluid computer program, and compares results to those obtained in a recent experiment on flow past obstructions.

  17. Safety and Licensing Philosophy and Experience at Ontario Hydro Nuclear Generating Stations, by W. Lee, OPG, 1986-01-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: As published in the Canadian Nuclear Society Bulletin Vol. 7, No. 1, 1986 with the kind permission of the CNS: The safely and licensing philosophy adopted by Ontario Hydro in establishing the need for retrofit design modifications to CANDU nuclear generating stations in operation since the early 1970's is discussed. This philosophy was developed in response to regulatory requests to determine whether this need exists in view of the more extensive safely and licensing design features incorporated in recent CANDU nuclear generating stations compared to the earlier designs. These addition features generally reflect evolving safety knowledge and licensing requirements over time.

  23. CANDU Advanced Plutonium Burner - The Canadian Response to the ALWR, by A.R. Dastur and A.C. Mao, AECL, 1989-05-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: As published in the Canadian Nuclear Society Bulletin Vol. 10, No. 3, 1989 with the kind permission of the CNS: It is demonstrated that the prescnt CANDU design concept has potential for increased conversion and resource utilization compared with other reactor concepts. Discussed here is a CANDU based concept thau utilizes energy produced by subcritical multiplication in a fertile region designed for accelerated plutonium production is presented. Its feasibility is based on incorporating the channels with fertile material into the primary heal transport circuit. Calculations with multigroup transport codes predict very high fuel utilization due to the production and burnup of fissile plutonium in the fertile region.

  25. Canada's Nuclear Achievement: Technical and Economic Perspectives, by T.E. Rummery and J.A. MacPherson, AECL, 1995-07-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: As published in the Canadian Nuclear Society Bulletin Vol. 16, No. 2, 1995 with the kind permission of the CNS: Canada's leading role and eminent accomplishments in nuclear development now span more than half a century. They encompass aspects as diverse as the design and sale of nuclear power reactors and research reactor technology, to the establishment of a corps of scientists, engineers and technologists with the expertise to address a wide scope of important nuclear science issues. To address the many facets of Canada's nuclear activities over the past 50 years would obviously require space far beyond that available in this paper. We have therefore limited this review to highlights we judge to be the most pertinent and interesting from an historical, technical and economic perspective. We also indicate briefly our view of the future of nuclear power in the overall context of energy needs in a world that is becoming more industrial and increasingly environmentally conscious.

  26. Numerical Solution of the Thermalhydraulic Conservation Equations from Fundamental Concepts to Multidimensional Analysis, by M.B. Carver, , 1995-08-01. Doc type: Report.
    Summary: This material was presented as part of a short course in Two-Phase Flow and Heat Transfer at McMaster University and is documented in report form for further reference. The discussion briefly establishes some requisite concepts of differential equation theory, and applies these to describe methods for numerical solution of the thennalhydraulic conservation equations in their various forms. The intent is to cover the general methodology without obscuring the principles with details. As a short overview of computational thermalhydraulics, the material provides an introductory foundation, so that those working on the application of thennalhydraulic codes can begin to understand the many intricacies involved without having to locate and read the references given. Those intending to work in code development will need to read and understand all the references.

  33. Software Quality Assurance: Practical Procedures to Meet CSA Standards, by M.B. Carver, CNSC, 1997-04-01. Doc type: Report.
    Summary: In the Canadian nuclear industry at the time, only the ASSERT code team and the NUCIRC team used definitive SQA (Software Quality Assurance), which identifies exactly what version of the computer code is being used for a given application, and every component used to build that version. A drive to apply such standards to all computer programs started in the 1990s, and Mike co-authored the 1995 AECL Reactor Development SQA manual. Upon his retirement, representatives of the then AECB (now CNSC) asked him to write a SQA guide for the industry that would bring all computer codes teams in line with CSA standards ( N286.7 & Q936).This report is CNSC-info-0669, 1997. To date the ASSERT-PV development team has followed these standards, the CATHENA team has not.

  38. Single Phase Friction Factors for MNR Thermalhydraulic Modelling, by Wm.J. Garland, McMaster University, 1999-02-23. Doc type: Other.
    Summary: This report documents a review of selected literature to determine the appropriate correlations to use for McMaster Nuclear Reactor safety analysis.  It was found that the standard Moody diagram (which is based on the transcendental Colebrook equation) is sufficiently accurate for pipe flow but problematic to program, whereas simple approximations do not account for pipe wall roughness.  Herein, a very simple function is offered that returns an accurate estimate of f as a function of Reynolds Number, Re, and relative roughness e/D in a non-iterative fashion.  In addition, a simple correction factor for channel flow is offered.

  52. Large LOCA Margins in CANDU Reactors - An Overview of the COG Report, by A.P. Muzumdar and D.A. Meneley, COG, 2009-05-30. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: This paper discusses the background and conclusions of the 2007 COG report on Large LOCA Safety Margins in CANDU Reactors, and the various initiatives that have resulted from this study since its release. The COG study challenged the notion that positive void reactivity itself is a design weakness, raised as an issue at the Convention on Nuclear Safety, to demonstrate the safety of operating CANDUs worldwide when compared to other certified LWR designs. The paper will briefly describe a new perspective on how the seemingly complex analytical results on reactor safety parameters can be compared on a level playing field, in such a manner that the non-specialist is able to understand. The paper is presented together with a companion paper that focuses on the comparison of reactivity initiated events in CANDU with some other internationally accepted LWR reactor designs.

  53. Power Reactor Safety Comparison - A Limited Review, by D.A. Meneley and A.P. Muzumdar, COG, 2009-05-30. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: A large amount of attention has been paid to avoiding positive coolant void reactivity in LWR reactors. This can be justified due to specific accident events that could lead to severe consequences. Somewhat less attention has been paid to other accident sequences that can lead to positive reactivity addition. Other designs, for example the CANDU-PHWR, exhibit positive coolant void reactivity but include both inherent and engineered systems that compensate for this undesirable characteristic. This paper represents the beginning of a long-term process intended to enable a balanced and fair comparison of the real safety of all reactor types.

    Summary: The Essential CANDU is a textbook about nuclear science and engineering pertaining to CANDU reactors using CANDU as the reference design. This distinguishes it from comparable textbooks based on PWR reactors. This is not a product description of CANDU per se. The book emphasizes theory over other aspects of nuclear science. This is a textbook about CANDU nuclear reactor and power plant engineering, not just the reactor physics of the core.
