An assessment of k-ε turbulence models for gas distribution analysis

This paper presents the gas distribution analysis by injecting air fountain into the containment and simulations with the HYDRAGON code. Turbulence models of standard k-ε(SKE), re-normalization group k-ε(RNG) and a realizable k-ε(RLZ) are used to assess the effects on the gas distribution analysis during a severe accident in a nuclear power plant. By comparing with experimental data,the simulation results of the RNG and SKE turbulence models agree well with the experimental data on the prediction of dimensionless density distributions. The results illustrate that the turbulence model choice had a small effect on the simulation results, particularly the region near to the air fountain source.     

Oxidative stability of olive oil during the thermal process: Effect of Pistacia khinjuk fruit oil

The oxidative stability of refined olive oil with incorporated Pistacia khinjuk fruit oil (PKFO; 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 5%, and 10%) during thermal processing at 170ºC for 8 h was evaluated. The conjugated diene values, carbonyl values, acid values, oil/oxidative stability indices, and total tocopherol content were measured during thermal processing. Olive oil containing 0.5% PKFO was identified as the most oxidative stable oil followed by oils containing 100 ppm TBHQ and 1, 5, 10, and 2% PKFO. No significant difference between samples of olive oil containing 100 ppm TBHQ and 1% PKFO was observed. Thus, it was concluded that PKFO at levels lower than 1% could provide stronger antioxidation activity in comparison with TBHQ (the strongest syntactic antioxidant used in the food industry). Moreover, reduction in tocopherol compounds during thermal processing was higher in olive oil containing TBHQ as compared to those in pure olive oil.

The effect of turbulence modeling on hydrogen jet dispersion inside a compartment space using the HYDRAGON code

The mitigation of hydrogen in the containment of nuclear reactor after the Loss of Coolant Accident is essential to preserve the structural reliability of the containment. This paper presents the results of the systematic work done by using the HYDRAGON code to investigate the effect of turbulence models on the concentration distribution of hydrogen and to determine the HYDRAGON code thermal-hydraulic simulation capability during a severe accident at the nuclear power plant. The HYDRAGON code is developed by the Department of Engineering Physics, Tsinghua University, which is an independent research program. The influence of various types of turbulence models, i.e. a standard k ? ? model, a re-normalized group (RNG) k ? ? model, and a realizable k ? ? model were analyzed and the simulation results were compared with the experimental data. When simulation results were compared to experimental data, it was found that, in most compartments, the standard k ? ? model generally yielded reasonable agreement with the experimental results as compared to RNG k ? ? and realizable k ? ? models; however, for probes P7 and P12, better trend was captured by RNG k ? ? and realizable k ? ? models, respectively.
