The purpose of the second edition of this monograph is to present an up-to-date overview of the thermal-hydraulic technology that underlies the design, operation, and safety assessment of boiling water nuclear reactors (BWRs). Significantly, BWRs represent a large fraction of the world's installed nuclear power capacity. Some important new material on pressure suppression containment technology has been added in order to provide the reader with a more comprehensive understanding of BWR power plants.
