Flow in Rod Bundles
For power upgrading VVER-440 reactors we need to know exactly how the temperature measured by the thermocouples is related to the average outlet temperature of the fuel assemblies. Accordingly, detailed knowledge on mixing process in the rod bundles and in the fuel assembly head have great importance. Here we study the hydrodynamics of rod bundles based on the results of direct numerical and la...
متن کاملFlow Pattern Identification and Pressure Drop Calculation for Gas-Liquid Flow in a Horizontal Pipeline
Two phase gas-liquid flow pattern in a horizontal pipeline is predicted very accurately using a newly-developed analytical relation. The pattern identification is based on one of the most widely used graphs, the Baker diagram, modified in a way that compensates for the unrealistic oversimplifications of recent works. The Kern's method of pressure drop calculation is used to obtain the frict...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Flow Patterns, Pressure Drop, and Flow Instabilities in Parallel Rectangular Minichannels
Flow boiling heat transfer in parallel minichannels and microchannels is one of the solutions proposed for cooling high heat flux systems. The associated increase in the pressure drop poses a problem that needs to be studied in detail before the small diameter channels can be implemented in practical systems. The pressure drop fluctuations and the flow instability in a network of parallel chann...
متن کاملICMM2004 – xxxx EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF FLOW PATTERNS, PRESSURE DROP AND FLOW INSTABILITIES IN PARALLEL RECTANGULAR MINICHANNELS
The use of phase change heat transfer in parallel minichannels and microchannels is one of the solutions proposed for cooling high heat flux systems. The increase in pressure drop in a two phase system is one of the problems, that need to be studied in detail before proceeding to any design phase. The pressure drop fluctuations in a network of parallel channels connected by a common head need t...
متن کاملScaling of pressure drop for oscillatory flow through a slot
Reduced-order modeling and design of zero-net mass-flux actuators require an understanding of several fundamental flow mechanisms governing the performance of these devices. One such aspect is the pressure drop due to oscillatory flow through a slot. In this Brief Communication, we use numerical simulations and experiments to examine physics-based scaling laws for the various mechanisms that de...
