Abstract:VALIDA experiments [1] were carried out within the framework of radioactive waste management to improve the understanding of mixed-convection flow and more particularly the interaction between a global cross-flow circulation and local natural convection effects around a vertical heated cylinder. The VALIDA loop implements a cylinder of 3.1 height to diameter ratio, mounted vertically in an insulated tunnel and cooled by a cross-flow air circulation. The air flow and the temperature fields on the cylinder and i… Show more
