Description

Since nuclear-reactor heat is generally removed by a moving fluid, it is necessary to design a fluid system to accomplish this. The fluid system design must consider steady-state and transient operation and include component pressure losses, flow distributions, and pumping power requirements. In addition, flow stability problems may occur under two-phase flow conditions. In this chapter the authors confine ourselves to steady-state conditions
