Numerical analysis of permafrost heat transfer for small module reactor installation in northern areas
Permafrost degradation amplified by climate change is one of the key issues to consider when attempting to install a small modular reactor (SMR) in remote towns and communities of northern Canada. If the thermal disturbance of permafrost occurs, the ground's strength may be significantly reduce...
