Characterisation of the effective thermal conductivity in the near wall region of a packed pebble bed
(North-West University (South Africa)., 2021)The effective thermal conductivity is an important parameter that is representative of the overall heat transfer in a packed bed of spheres. An accurate prediction of the effective thermal conductivity is necessary for the ... -
Characterisation of thermal radiation in the near-wall region of a packed pebble bed
(2014)The heat transfer phenomena in the near-wall region of a randomly packed pebble bed are important in the design of a Pebble Bed Reactor (PBR), especially when considering the safety case during accident conditions. At ... -
Simulation of natural convective flow in an experimental reactor cavity cooling system facility
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)The very high temperature reactor (VHTR) has many safety features. One of these features is the reactor cavity cooling system (RCCS). This system is intended to remove decay heat from the reactor cavity during upset ...
