Thermal-hydraulic study on cross-flow mercury target

Description

In order to remove the high heat density generated in the mercury target effectively under the 1 MW proton beam operation, we have proposed the Cross Flow Type (CFT) target using bladed flow distributors. From three-dimensional numerical simulations using the general-purpose computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code (STAR-CD), it was found that the maximum local temperature rise could be suppressed less than 58.2 K under mercury flow rate of 40 m3/h. This paper presents the current CFD analytical results of the 1 MW CFT mercury target. (author)
