A dynamic model of U-tube steam generator for CANDU simulation

  • 1. Institute of Advanced Engineering, Yongin (Korea, Republic of)

Description

A simulation model for the transient behavior of CANDU U-tube steam generator(UTSG) has been developed for application to the simulation of operational transient behavior of CANDU nuclear power plant. For application to CANDU UTSG, the design characteristics of CANDU UTSG such as Wolsong Units, feedwater inlet near the tube sheet, is approximated. For realistic prediction of thermal hydraulic behavior of and tube bundle region is divided into two separate control volumes, subcooled region and saturated region, and the variation of thermal hydraulic properties within a control volume is considered. Test results for typical CANDU operational transient case show reasonable transient behavior of steam generator and considered to be applicable to the simulation of overall plant
