Description
Experimental studies on CHF in circular tubes and rod bundles are performed in the KRISTA test facility. The experiments cover a wide range of parameters of interest to LWRs, HCLWR and also Russian WWER rectors. CHF tests in circular tubes of three different inner diameters of 4 mm, 8 mm and 12 mm have been performed in order to study the influence of tube diameter on CHF. In contrast to previous work the influence of diameter on CHF has been found to be a complex function of pressure, exit quality, mass flux and the diameter itself. (orig./DG)
