MECTUB: A thermomechanical model for overheating studies of LMFBR Steam Generator tubes during a sodium/water reaction

Description
The MECTUB code has been developed in order to model the thermomechanical behaviour of pressurized tubes subjected to overheating. Mechanical modelling takes into account the elastic, plastic and creep effects up to high temperature (1200 deg. C). Related studies were carried out on mechanical characteristics at high temperature, internal water cooling under high thermal flux and external heating by sodium/water reaction products. The calculation principle is described, as well as comparison between experiment and calculation. 5 refs, 13 figs, 1 tab
