Optimization of outer core to reduce end effect of annular linear induction electromagnetic pump in prototype Generation-IV sodium-cooled fast reactor

An annular linear induction electromagnetic pump (ALIP) which has a developed pressure of 0.76 bar and a flow rate of 100 L/min is designed to analysis end effect which is main problem to use ALIP in thermohydraulic system of the prototype generation-IV sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR). Because th...
