On the method of heat exchange calculation for critical and postcritical regimes in sodium-water steam generators

Description

Technique for calculating heat exchange in sodium-water steam generators with provisions for steam-water flow non-equilibrium character and moisture additional evaporation in pipes is suggested. Zone of heat exchange crisis representing the zone of transition from developed boiling to postcritical zone is considered. Comparison of estimated and experimental data performed for the following ranges of steame generator parameters: pressure p=7.8-14.0 MPa, coolant flow rate ρw=350-1000 kg/(m2xs), inlet sodium temperature T=590-825 K shows their good agreement
