Large eddy simulation (LES) of developed turbulent flows in a rod bundle was carried out for four spacer designs. The mixing-vanes attached at the spacer were inclined at 30° or 20° they were arranged to promote the swirling or convective flow. These arrangements are possible elements to compose an actual rod bundle. Our LES technique with a consistent higher-order immersed boundary method and a one-equation dynamic sub-grid scale model contributed to an efficient treatment of the complex wall configurations of rods and spacers. The computational results reasonably reproduced experimental results for the drag coefficient and the decay rate of swirling flow. The profiles of the axial velocities and the turbulence intensities indicated reasonable trend for the turbulent flow in the rod bundle. The effect of mixing-vane arrangement on the lateral flows was successfully clarified: the cross flow took the longer way on the rod surface than the swirling flow and then was more significantly influenced by momentum diffusion at the no-slip wall. Therefore, the largely inclined mixing-vanes promoted the cross flow only in the neighborhood of the spacer; the swirling flow inside a subchannel could reach farther downstream than the cross flow. 相似文献

A computational study of thermal striping in the upper plenum of the prototype generation-IV sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR) being developed at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute is presented. First, previous experimental and numerical studies on the thermal striping are briefly discussed. Both Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) and large eddy simulation (LES) approaches are employed for the simulation of thermal striping in the upper plenum of the PGSFR. For the RANS approach, the conventional k ? ? turbulence model is employed and the LES is performed using the wall-adapting local eddy viscosity model. From the RANS results, the time-averaged velocity components and temperature field in the complicated upper plenum of the PGSFR are calculated. In the LES results, the time history of temperature fluctuation at several locations of upper internal structure (UIS) and intermediate heat exchanger (IHX) are additionally stored. Comparisons of the predicted time-averaged velocity and temperature between the two methods show that the prediction by the LES shows faster thermal mixing than that by the k ? ? turbulence model. From the computed results of the temporal variation of temperature, it was possible to find the amplitude and frequency of the temperature fluctuation at the several locations of the UIS and IHXs. It was found that the location where the thermal stress is largest in the upper plenum of the PGSFR is the ?-shape region of the first grid plate. 相似文献

This paper introduces the results of numerical simulations on flow fields and relevant heat transfer in the pebble bed reactor (PBR) core. In the core, since the coolant passes a highly complicated random flow path with a high Reynolds number, an appropriate treatment of the turbulence is required. A set of simple experiments for the flow over a circular cylinder with heat transfer was conducted to finally select the large eddy simulation (LES) and k-ω model among the considering Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) models for PBR application. Using these models, the PBR cores, whose geometries were simplified to the body-centered cubical (BCC) and face-centered cubical (FCC) structures, were simulated. A larger pressure drop, a more random flow field, a higher vorticity magnitude and a higher temperature at the local hot spots on the pebble surface were found in the results of the LES than in those of RANS for both geometries. In cases of the LES, the flow structures were resolved up to the grid scales. Irregular distributions of the flow and local heat transfer were found in the BCC core, while relatively regular distributions for the FCC core. The turbulent nature of the coolant flow in the pebble core evidently affected the fuel surface temperature distribution. 相似文献

In this work we focus on the numerical prediction of temperature fluctuations induced in solid materials through turbulent mixing processes. As test case we use the mixing of two streams of different temperature in a T-junction. Due to the turbulent mixing of the two streams temperature fluctuations occur which are also transferred to the solid walls in contact with the fluid. Such fluctuations in the solid material may lead to thermal fatigue and are therefore relevant for the lifetime management of components used in nuclear power plants (NPP).We investigate the mixing in T-junctions made of different materials and having different pipe wall thicknesses. The temperature difference between the streams in the main and side branch is set to 75 °C and the mass flow rate in the main pipe is three times larger than in the side branch. In a first step we perform a set of simulations by using different formulations of the large-eddy simulation (LES) subgrid scale model, i.e. classical Smagorinsky model and dynamic procedure, to identify the influence of the modeled subgrid scales on the simulation results. The comparison between available experimental data and the numerical results reveals a good agreement when using the dynamic procedure. In a second step we address the temperature fluctuations in the solid wall subject to the wall thickness. The influence of the wall thickness is represented as a damping effect on the temperature fluctuations in radial direction in the pipe material. This study shows the capability of LES to predict thermal fluctuations in turbulent mixing. 相似文献

The two-phase flow instabilities observed in through parallel multichannel can be classified into three types, of which only one is intrinsic to parallel multichannel systems. The intrinsic instabilities observed in parallel multichannel system have been studied experimentally. The stable boundary of the flow in such a parallel-channel system are sought, and the nature of inlet flow oscillation in the unstable region has been examined experimentally under various conditions of inlet velocity, heat flux, liquid temperature, cross section of channel and entrance throttling. The results show that parallel multichannel system possess a characteristic oscillation that is quite independent of the magnitude and duration of the initial disturbance, and the stable boundary is influenced by the characteristic frequency of the system as well as by the exit quality when this is low, and upon raising the exit quality and reducing the characteristic frequency, the system increases its instability, and entrance throttling effectively contributes to stabilization of the system. 相似文献

Integral system tests with the Cylindrical Core Test Facility (CCTF) were performed to investigate the effect of the initial clad temperature on the reflood phenomena in a PWRLOCA. The initial peak clad temperatures in these three tests were 871, 968 and 1,047 K, respectively. The feedback of the system on the core inlet mass flow rate was estimated to be little influenced by the variation of the initial clad temperature except for the first 20 s in the transient. The observed temperature rise from the reflood initiation was lower with the higher initial clad temperature. This qualitatively agreed with the results of the small scale forced feed reflood experiments. However, the magnitude of the temperature rise in CCTF was significantly low due to the high initial core inlet mass flow rate. Also observed were the multi-dimensional thermal behaviors for the three cases in the CCTF wide core. The analysis codes REFLA and TRAC reasonably predicted the effect of the initial clad temperature on the core thermo-hydraulics under the simulated core inlet flow conditions. However, the calculated temperature rise of the maximum powered rod based on the one-dimensional core analysis was higher than that of the average powered rod, which contradicts the tendency observed in CCTF tests. 相似文献

In Part II, we described the unsteady flow simulation and proposed a modification of a traditional turbulence flow model. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of an isothermal, fully periodic flow across a tube bundle using unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) equations, with turbulence models such as the Reynolds stress model (RSM) were investigated at a Reynolds number of 1.8 × 104, based on the tube diameter and inlet velocity. As noted in Part I, CFD simulation and experimental results were compared at five positions along (x; y) coordinates. The steady RANS simulation showed that four diverse turbulence models were efficient for predicting the Reynolds stresses, and generally, SRANS results were marginal to poor, using a consistent evaluation terminology. In the URANS simulation, we modeled the turbulent flow field in a manner similar to the approach used for large eddy simulation (LES). The time-dependent URANS results showed that the simulation reproduces the dynamic stability as characterized by transverse oscillatory flow structures in the near-wake region. In particular, the inclusion of terms accounting for the time scales associated with the production range and dissipation rate of turbulence generates unsteady statistics of the mean and fluctuation flow. In spite of this, the model implemented produces better agreement with a benchmark data set and is thus recommended. 相似文献

Life time extension assessment is a very important issue for the nuclear community. A serious threat to the life time extension of a Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) is an occurrence of the Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) during an Emergency Core Coolant (ECC) injection in a loss-of-coolant accident. Traditional system codes fail to predict the complex three-dimensional flow phenomena resulting from such ECC injection. Improved results have been obtained using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations. However, it has been also shown that transient RANS approaches are less capable to predict the complex flow features in the downcomer of the RPV. More advanced CFD methods like Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) are required for modeling of these flow phenomena. This paper addresses the feasibility of the application of LES for single-phase PTS. Furthermore, the required grid resolution for such LES analyses is identified by evaluation of the solution on different mesh sizes. A buoyancy-driven PTS experiment has been considered here. This experiment has been performed in the 1:5 linear scale Rossendorf Coolant Mixing Model (ROCOM) facility. In the applied numerical model, the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved in the LES formulation, with an additional transport equation for a scalar, which is responsible for driving the embedded buoyancy term in the momentum equations. Instantaneous mixing characteristics are investigated based on evaluation of the scalar concentration. The analysis presented in this paper indicates that the application of LES is feasible nowadays for single-phase PTS. It is demonstrated that the mixing in the downcomer is quite sensitive to small turbulent disturbances at the ECC inlet, i.e., two simulations performed with slightly different fluctuations at the inlet result in substantially different flow in the downcomer. This complicates the analysis of the data from simulations and suggests that evaluation of the results should be performed in the frequency-amplitude domain instead of the classically employed temporal data analysis. 相似文献
