Abstract The pseudo-rapidity distributions of the charged particles produced in the asymmetric collision systems p+Al, p+Au and$$^3$$ 3 He+Au at$$\sqrt{s_\text {NN}} = 200$$ s NN = 200 GeV are evaluated in the framework of a fireball model with Tsallis thermodynamics. The fireball model assumes that the experimentally measured particles are produced by fireballs following the Tsallis distribution and it can effectively describe the experimental data. Our results as well as previous results for d+Au collisions at$$\sqrt{s_\text {NN}} = 200$$ s NN = 200 GeV and p+Pb collisions at$$\sqrt{s_\text {NN}} = 5.02$$ s NN = 5.02 TeV validate that the fireball model based on Tsallis thermodynamics can provide a universal framework for pseudo-rapidity distribution of the charged particles produced in asymmetric collision systems. We predict the centrality dependence of the total charged particle multiplicity in the p+Al, p+Au and$$^3$$ 3 He+Au collisions. Additionally, the dependences of the fireball model parameters ($$y_{0a}$$ y 0 a ,$$y_{0A}$$ y 0 A ,$$\sigma _{a}$$ σ a and$$\sigma _{A}$$ σ A ) on the centrality and system size are studied.
The Integral Inherently Safe Light Water Reactor (I 2 S-LWR) includes primary-to-secondary coolant heat exchangers located in the downcomer of the reactor pressure vessel. A microchannel heat exchanger (MCHX) configuration is selected to meet the limited available volume and high heat duty requirements. The design, modeling, and optimization of the liquid-liquid MCHX is outlined. In addition, the performance of a MCHX test section representative of the I 2 S-LWR MCHX design is validated experimentally. Experimental results show that heat transfer and pressure drop correlations developed for larger, macroscale channels lead to accurate predictions of performance. Additionally, this study shows that an MCHX can deliver the required heat duties within the available space and pressure drop constraints of the overall I2 S-LWR design.
