1Water gel explosive — A water gel explosive is an explosive mixture (slurry) consisting of a saturated aqueous solution of oxidizers and/or fuels. [ [http://www.ncjrs.gov/txtfiles1/nij/178913.txt Guide for the Selection of Commercial Explosives Detection] ] Tovex is… …
2Boiling water reactor — A boiling water reactor (BWR) is a type of nuclear reactor developed by the General Electric in the mid 1950s.Fact|date=April 2008 The BWR is characterized by two phase fluid flow (water and steam) in the upper part of the reactor core. See… …
3intergranular voids — Generally primary or secondarily enhanced voids within rocks, with average dimensions of 0.00l to 0.lmm. Such voids, or pores, may provide interconnected porosity in many karst rocks and allow early water movement under laminar flow conditions …
4Pressurized water reactor — (PWRs) (also VVER if of Russian design) are generation II nuclear power reactors that use ordinary water under high pressure (superheated water) as coolant and neutron moderator. The primary coolant loop is kept under high pressure to prevent the …
5Supercritical water reactor — The Supercritical water reactor (SCWR) is a Generation IV reactor concept that uses supercritical water as the working fluid. SCWRs are basically LWRs operating at higher pressure and temperatures with a direct, once through cycle. As most… …
