Static pressure distribution in an angular channel with helicoidal wire

Description

This work reports data on pressure drop distribution along a channel formed by a wire-wrapped rod placed inside a circular tube. This geometry simulates the flow field in the vicinity of a tropical fuel rod of a LMFBR (Liquid-Metal Fast Breeder Reactor) fuel assembly. The working flyid was air and the range for the Reynolds number extended from 2.26 x 104 to 4.52 x 104. The aspect ratio, P/D and the lead-to-diameter ratio, 1/D, were 1.2 and 15, respectively.

Abstract (Portuguese)

Apresentam-se dados de distribuicao de queda de pressao ao longo de um canal formado por uma barra enrolada com fio metalico de um tubo circular. Essa geometria simula o campo de escoamento nas vizinhancas de uma barra de elemento combustivel tipico de um LMFBR. O fluido de trabalho e ar e a faixa para o numero de Reynolds extendeu-se de 2.26 x 104 a 4.52 x 104. (autor)
