Nuclear Engineering Handbook 2nd edition

Nuclear Engineering Handbook 2nd edition
Nuclear Engineering Handbook 2nd edition Book Cover

The purpose of this handbook is to provide an introduction to nuclear power reactors, the nuclear fuel cycle, and associated analysis tools, to a broad audience including engineers, engineering and science students, their teachers and mentors, science and technology journalists, and interested members of the general public. Nuclear engineering encompasses all the engineering disciplines that are applied in the design, licensing, construction, and operation of nuclear reactors, nuclear power plants, nuclear fuel cycle facilities, and finally the decontamination and decommissioning of these facilities at the end of their useful operating life. This handbook examines many of these aspects in its three sections.
