Abstract:The simulation of 3D thermal-hydraulic problem for the pool type fast reactors, is one of the necessary and great importance. Most system codes can’t be used to simulate multi-dimensional thermal-hydraulics problems, whereas, the CFD method is suitable to deal with these type of simulation challenges. Based on the CFD method, a neutronics and thermohydraulic coupling code FLUENT/PK for nuclear reactor safety analysis by coupling the commercial CFD code FLUENT with the point kinetics model (PKM) and the pin the… 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.
