A Validation of CUPID Code for a Subcooled Boiling Test

  • 1. Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, Daejeon (Korea, Republic of)

Description

The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute has been developing a three-dimensional thermal-hydraulic code, called CUPID, which was motivated from practical needs for the realistic simulation of two-phase flows in nuclear reactor components. This paper presents the implementation of the subcooled boiling model into the CUPID code and some assessment results. The closure relations for the subcooled boiling model are turbulence model, interfacial non-drag force, interfacial condensation, wall evaporation model, bubble departure diameter, and so on
