A vibration countermeasure for a reactor core cooling system through the use of the mechanical design parameters

In a recent research, the authors of this paper have proposed a non-linear model to simulate vibration in the reactor core cooling system. The model describes the industrial system used in the Egyptian 2^nd research reactor. It has overcome the shortcoming of the conventional model, and proved accurate simulation of the reactor core cooling mechanical system. Based on this model, this paper presents a novel vibration countermeasure using the mechanical design parameters for different spring constant and inertia´s within recommended industrial constraints.
