The lead cooled reactor BREST-OD-300 is developing as a part of Russian federal project “PRORYV”. Two- circuit scheme used in the for heat removal. An inherent risk two- potential danger water steam ingression core case large leakage generator initiated, example, Steam Generator Tube Rupture (SGTR). Reactor power and temperature response on vapor penetration to studied, but pressurization effec...

This work aims to review the general guidelines be adopted perform coupled System Thermal Hydraulics (STH)/CFD calculations. The analysis is often required when complex phenomena characterized by different characteristic time and length scales are investigated. Indeed, STH/CFD coupling main drawbacks of both stand-alone codes overcome, reducing computational cost providing more realistic soluti...
