The latest ENDF/B nuclear data library released in 2018 is the result of a new international approach to develop evaluated nuclear data for general purpose applications. In order to use the latest ENDF/B-VIII.0 nuclear data library in safety analyses, validation calculations for&#x...

Currently, great emphasis is placed on reducing the energy performance of buildings that is also reflected in lighting. Very often there are original lamps and light sources replaced by new modern technology with LEDs that allow to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions and&#x...

The paper describes the development, validation, and use of UWB1 code intended for fast calculation of nuclear fuel depletion in burnable absorber research. The degree of effectiveness of burnable absorbers in the form of natural abundance elements, nuclides, and their combinations are ...

Partial discharges are one of the most commonly occurring physical phenomena that can have a negative effect on the overall life of electrical equipment. The most basic types (besides surface and internal) are discharges occurring in places with a small radius of curvature. At ...

The article is primarily concerned with the measurement of heat recovery units for different work environments. At present, great emphasis is placed on indoor air quality. The quality of the indoor environment greatly influences the concentration, response, and overall quality of work. ...

Cogeneration power plants have already been operated in the Czech Republic for several decades. These cogeneration power plants have been mostly operated with original technologies. However, these original technologies have to be continuously innovated during the entire operation time. This paper...

This article deals with issues arising during the design and production of a cold crucible (CC) for melting metals and alloys using electromagnetic induction. The article deals particularly with the results from tests and numerical simulations for designing the CC. The heat fluxes ...

This article discusses application of data acquisition device National Instruments NI PCI-6221 for electrical separator low cost monitoring. Results can be applicable for air protection and air pollution prevention. Measured basic electrical and environmental values are logged into a file. Furthe...

The aim of this article is to introduce the newly established laboratory of cold crucible. The laboratory of cold crucible is based on a high-frequency source HFG160 with working chamber and a closed cooling circuit. The devices are installed in the hall F2 in Science and...

This paper deals with the connection of distributed resources. It is divided into two parts. The first is devoted to renewable energy resources. The review of these resources will help to determine if they could reduce the global warming and if they could play a significa...
