Description

The pressure drop and flow distribution were obtained by calculations for the scaled reactor hydraulic model. The computations were compared with the experiment conducted at the same conditions in order to determine the capabilities of the codes to model accurately the physical phenomena which occur in the ACPR1000+ reactor vessel. The results indicated that this numerical modeling was validated to allow an accurate evaluation of the pressure drop and flow distribution in nuclear reactor vessel for engineering applications.
