Benchmarks for the validation of the heat transfer capabilities of one-dimensional system codes
(Begell House, 2019)The purpose of the reactor cavity cooling system in a nuclear plant is to effectively remove the heat released by the reactor pressure vessel. The reactor cavity cooling system must be able to operate safely in a natural ... -
Investigation of 1D system CFD and 3D CFD numerical methodology applied to an experimental facility
(SAAM, 2018)The fourth generation gas-cooled nuclear reactor designs provide a promising prospect for energy and process heat generation. The designs` cycles have high thermal efficiencies, require relatively little fuel and are safe ... -
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 ...
