The application of system CFD to the design and optimization of high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear power plants
Greyvenstein, Gideon P. (ASME, 2008)The objective of this paper is to model the steady-state and dynamic operation of a pebble-bed-type high temperature gas-cooled reactor power plant using a system computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach. System CFD ... -
Evaluation of a detailed radiation heat tranfer model in a high temperature reactor systems simulation model
Van Antwerpen, H.J.; Greyvenstein, G.P. (Elsevier, 2008)Radiation heat transfer is a major mode of heat transfer in high temperature gas-cooled reactors (HTRs) because of the high operating temperatures. It is, however, a difficult phenomenon to calculate in full detail due to ... -
A systems CFD model of a packed bed high temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor
Du Toit, C.G.; Rousseau, P.G.; Greyvenstein, G.P.; Landman, W.A. (Elsevier, 2006)The theoretical basis and conceptual formulation of a comprehensive reactor model to simulate the thermal-fluid phenomena of the PBMR reactor core and core structures is given. Through a rigorous analysis the fundamental ...
