Abstract:A nuclear reactor cooling system that has been operating for a long time can carry some debris into a fuel coolant channel, which can result in a blockage. An in-depth two-dimensional simulation of partial channel blockage can be carried out using FLUENT Code. In this study, a channel blockage simulation is employed to perform a safety analysis for the TRIGA-2000 reactor, which is converted using plate-type fuel. Heat generation on the fuel plate takes place along its axial axis. The modelling of the fuel-plat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
