NEUP CINR-24-31551: Sodium heat pipes; design and failure mode assessment for micro-reactor applications

The present proposal aims to experimentally investigate the thermal-hydraulics performance of liquid sodium heat pipes applied to microreactors, with a focus on exploring different design parameters, effects of different parameters on operating performance and understanding the evolution and impact of different failure modes.
