Modeling and analysis of a heat transport transient test facility for space nuclear systems

The purpose of this thesis is to design a robust test facility for a small space nuclear power system and model its physical behavior under different scenarios. The test facility will be used to simulate a 1-10kWe nuclear reactor, its electrical generation, and heat removal capabilities. This simula...
