M. The thermal neutron density is 108 neutrons/cm3 in a 1 meter diameter spherical reactor. Assume that the reactor is made entirely of U-233 having a density of 19.0 g/cm3. Also assume that the neutron speed is a uniform 2200 m/s. Find the neutron flux, the total reaction rate for fissions, and the (approximate) power produced by the reactor.

Kerosene enters a 5 cm diameter tube at 35C with a velocity of 3 m/s. The tube is wrapped with a resistance heating element so that when it is energized a uniform heat flux is imposed on the tube. At the exit of the tube, the temperature of the kerosene is to be 45C. A constraint is placed on the process, such that the local kerosene temperature cannot exceed 80C; this is likely to occur at the wall of the...
