Thermal-Hydraulics analysis of pressurized water reactor core by using single heated channel model
Thermal hydraulics of nuclear reactor as a basis of reactor safety has a very important role in reactor design and control. The thermal-hydraulic analysis provides input data to the reactor-physics analysis, whereas the latter gives information about the distribution of heat sources, which is needed to perform the thermal-hydraulic analysis. In this study single heated channel model as a very f...
متن کاملThermal Hydraulics Design Limits
The following discussion of PWR steady state and transient design limits is extracted from the theses of Carter Shuffler and Jarrod Trant while the BWR discussion is extracted from Paolo Ferroni's thesis (covers steady state only). These limits are a simplified and narrower discussion than the relevant NRC standard review plan you will also be referred to. All materials are directly extracted f...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Simulations on Thermal-Hydraulics in Fuel Bundles of Advanced Nuclear Reactors
In order to predict the water-vapor two-phase flow dynamics in a fuel bundle of an advanced light-water reactor, large-scale numerical simulations were performed using a highly parallel-vector supercomputer, the earth simulator. Although conventional analysis methods such as subchannel codes and system analysis codes need composition equations based on the experimental data, it is difficult to ...
متن کاملAppendix 1 Thermal Hydraulics, Draft for Comment
Several different fuel failure criteria have been used in previously NRC-sponsored SFP accident studies. Benjamin, et. al. used the onset of runaway fuel clad oxidation as the fuel failure criterion in NUREG/CR-0649 [Ref. 1]. This criterion was criticized because clad rupture can occur at a relatively low temperature causing a gap release. The consequences of gap release can be significant if t...
متن کاملValidation of Reactor Physics-thermal Hydraulics Coupled Calculation in Water-cooled Research Reactors with Laminar Flow Regimes
A collaboration between the University of Florida and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL) has been formed to develop and validate detailed coupled multiphysics models of the zero-power (100 W) CROCUS reactor at EPFL and the 100 kW University of Florida Training Reactor, for the comprehensive analysis of the reactor behavior under transient (neutronic or thermal-hydraulic ...
