LARGE EDDY SIMULATION OF WIRE-WRAPPED FUEL PINS I: Hydrodynamics of a Single Pin
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present large-eddy simulations of flow and heat transfer in a wire-wrapped fuel assembly at subchannel Reynolds numbers of Reh=4684–29184. The domain consists of a single pin in a hexagonally periodic array, corresponding to two interior subchannels. Periodic boundary conditions are also used in the axial direction over a single wire-wrap period.

متن کاملNumerical Simulation of the Flow in Wire-wrapped Pin Bundles: Effect of Pin-wire Contact Modeling
The rapid advancement of numerical techniques and the availability of increasingly powerful supercomputers recently enabled scientists to use large eddy simulation (LES) to simulate numerically the flow in a full subassembly composed of wire-wrapped pins. Because of the extreme computational cost of such simulation, it was not possible to conduct a sensitivity case on the pin-wire interface mod...
متن کاملLarge eddy simulation of propane combustion in a planar trapped vortex combustor
Propane combustion in a trapped vortex combustor (TVC) is characterized via large eddy simulation coupled with filtered mass density function. A computational algorithm based on high order finite difference (FD) schemes, is employed to solve the Eulerian filtered compressible Navier-Stokes equations. In contrast, a Lagrangian Monte-Carlo solver based on the filtered mass density function is inv...
متن کاملبررسی عملکرد پیل سوختی غشاپلیمری با میدان شارش پینی لوبیا شکل
The shape and geometry of the flow field have considerable effects on the transfer rate of the reactants toward the catalyst layer and consequently the performance of the polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell. In this study, a novel PEM fuel cell with pin-type flow field is proposed in order to reduce the wake regions, increase the oxygen transfer rate into the catalyst layer and the cur...

In order to reduce wear in gudgeon pin, bush and piston boss lubrication is done. Oil used in national engine species was 10W40 with dynamic viscosity 5.5 mPa.s at 140 °C (the working temperature). In order to complete investigation the oil film hydrodynamics analysis in small end of connecting rod, a real full model engine with four cylinders has been simulated by AVL EXCITE5.1 software. In...
