The calculation of gas properties for fuel pin modelling

Creators

Description

It is proposed that the use of Mason and Saxena equations for the thermal conductivity of gas mixtures encountered in fuel modelling is stopped An alternative method, coded into appropriate algorithms, can be 1 1/2 to 25 times faster with negligible loss of accuracy. (author)
