Abstract:This study evaluates our previously proposed correlations for the wall condensation heat flux qc and the wall functions of dimensionless profiles for temperature of steam and air mixture Tg and steam mass fraction Xs. These correlations are expected to be used in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis with coarse computation cells to evaluate thermal hydraulic behavior in containment vessels (CVs) of nuclear power plants under accident conditions. We carried out numerical simulations of experiments for wa… Show more
