Description

Based on the fundamental mass, momentum, energy conservation equations, a reasonable model was founded for calculating the thermal-hydraulic characteristics of the multi-casing pipe fuel in HFETR. From this model, a calculating code was developed for calculating and analyzing the thermal-hydraulic safety of the multi-casing pipe fuel. Using this code, the thermal-hydraulic safety characteristics of HFETR's multi-casing pipe fuel were investigated. The calculating results are deeply in agreement with the experimental data
