Impact of nuclear irradiation on helium bubble nucleation at interfaces in liquid metals coupled to permeation through stainless steels
Jorge Fradera, Santiago Cuesta-López
The impact of nucleating gas bubbles in the form of a dispersed gas phase on hydrogen isotope permeation at interfaces between liquid metals, like LLE, and structural materials, li…
Nucleation, growth and transport modelling of helium bubbles under nuclear irradiation in lead-lithium with the Self-consistent nucleation theory and surface tension corrections
Jorge Fradera, Santiago Cuesta-López
Helium (He) nucleation in liquid metal breeding blankets of a DT fusion reactor may have a significant impact regarding system design, safety and operation. Large He production rat…
The effect of a micro bubble dispersed gas phase on hydrogen isotope transport in liquid metals under nuclear irradiation
Jorge Fradera, Santiago Cuesta-López
The present work intend to be a first step towards the understanding and quantification of the hydrogen isotope complex phenomena in liquid metals for nuclear technology. Liquid me…
Physics of non-steady state diffusion of lightweight atoms in a heavy atom matrix. Introducing an open-source tool for simulated-experiments in fluid mechanics
Roberto Serrano-López, Santiago Cuesta-López, Oscar Tapia-Júdez +1
The practice-based learning methodologies offer to undergraduate professors different ways to illustrate certain general physic principles. Traditional experimental workbenches hav…
