Steam generators for nuclear power plants examines all phases of the life cycle of nuclear steam generators (NSGs), components which are essential for the efficient and safe operation of light water reactors (LWRs). Coverage spans the design, manufacturing, operation and maintenance, fitness-for-service and long term operation of these key reactor parts.

Part 1 opens with a chapter by the editor that provides fundamental background on NSG engineering and operational experiences. The following chapters then review the different NSG concepts, describe NSG design and manufacturing and consider the particularities of SGs for VVER reactors. Part 2 then focuses on NSG operation and maintenance, starting with an overview of the activities required to support reliable and safe operation. The discussion then moves on to tubing vibration, followed by the water and steam cycle chemistry issues relevant to the NSG lifecycle. Finally a number of chapters focus on the key issue of corrosion in NSGs from different angles.

This book serves as a timely resource for professionals involved in all phases of the NSG life cycle, from design, manufacturing, operation and maintenance, to fitness-for-service and long term operation. It is also intended as a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in a range of topics related to NSG life cycle management. The book does not relate any specific vendor-based technologies but rather provides a broad generic technology overview across PWR, VVER and PHWR nuclear power plant technologies.

  • Fulfills the need for a book specifically on steam generators for nuclear power plants
  • Comprehensive coverage of all phases of the nuclear steam generator life cycle, from design, manufacturing, operation and maintenance, to fitness-for-service and long term operation in one convenient volume.
  • Contributions from key manufacturers, as well as research institutes and universities

Jovica R Riznic, PhD., P.Eng., FASME, is a Technical Specialist with the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC), working on regulatory analysis and assessment of technical issues with operating nuclear power plants (NPP). He served CNSC on various position, including nuclear safety analysis and managing the CNSC Research and Support Program. He served as an adjunct professor/thesis advisor at the University of Waterloo, Mc Master, and Purdue Universities and currently is on faculty at Algonquin College in Ottawa in the School of Business and the Centre for Continuing and Online. He conducted research at Argonne National Laboratory, Purdue University and University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in the areas of heat and mass transfer, nuclear reactor thermal hydraulics, multi-phase thermo-fluid systems, nuclear reactor safety and reliability, and engineering management. He is currently coordinating a team providing Canadian contribution to a number of international research projects with US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Nuclear Energy Agency of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD NEA) and International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to address issues of material degradation and safe operation of piping components and steam generators of CANDU and Light Water Reactors. Also, he leads a team of researchers working with Purdue University on refining the CANTIA methodology for steam generator tube integrity, leakage inspection and probabilistic assessment. Currently he is the Founding Editor of the ASME Nuclear Engineering and Technology for 21st Century Concise Monographs Series, Associate Editor of the ASME Nuclear Engineering and Radiation Science Journal and the on the Editorial Board of the Nuclear Engineering and Design Journal.
