Effects of gap size and excitation frequency on the vibrational behavior and wear rate of fuel rods

Abstract: A wear map shows wear rate as a function of the grid-to-rod gap size and the frequency of the excitation force. The critical gap size, which is associated with the maximum wear rate, lies within the harmonic regime. In the no wear region the amplitude of the rod vibration is smaller than the gap size so that no impact between the rod and plate can happen. The curve of the resonant frequency of the system appears to overlap with the peaks in the contour.

“…The stress field around a contact interface with a sharp corner is closely related to various failures such as wear, fatigue and plastic yielding, which significantly limit the life of various engineering components [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. The analysis of contact stress around these area is important in understanding the onset and propagation of those failures: it will provide guidelines for the design of contact components so that the damage can be limited [11,12,[15][16][17][18][19][20][21].…”

“…There are several kinds of base liquids namely bio-liquids, lubricants, oils, water, polymer solutions, ethylene glycol etc. Such liquids have useful applications in transformer cooling, electronic cooling and heat exchanger [1][2][3]. Thus for the intensification of thermal potential, fine metalic particles ( 2 , TiO , Cu , Ag 23 , Al O Fe and their oxides) are dispersed homogeneously in the operating liquids.…”
