A simplified mathematical model of vertical U-tube steam generator in MATLAB environment

Abstract

Abstract. The paper presents a vertical U-tube steam generator mathematical model which is developed in MATLAB environment. In the model is used single phase or humongous fluid and are made some simplifications in order to save computational time. After the model was build several numerical simulations were conducted.The changes of some main parameter values like primary water temperature, metal tube temperature, steam generator pressure, and so on are presented in graphs and tables.
