Hydrodynamic force acting on the structures, pipes and various forms of objects can
generate destructive vibrations, and could cause acoustic and noise problems in industrial …

The steam-water separation system is of great importance to ensuring the steam quality in a
PWR UTSG. In the present work, the full-scale three-dimensional CFD analysis is performed …

Fouling on tube surfaces degrades the heat transfer characteristics of heat exchangers. The
objective of this study was to predict the distribution of deposits on the surface of heat …

Single-phase convective heat transfer and steam-water two-phase flow boiling heat transfer
experiments have been carried out with a vertical seven-rod bundle at low flow conditions …

Flow-induced vibration (FIV) is a common phenomenon observed in internal flows and is
frequently encountered in technical systems like process plants, nuclear plants, oil-piping or …

Thermal-hydraulic performance in the reactor core was an essential factor in the nuclear
power plant design. In this study, we analyzed the three-dimensional (3-D) thermal-hydraulic …

Helically-coiled tube steam generator has been widely used in nuclear reactor, energy
power, petrochemical and other systems. In the liquid metal reactor, the liquid metal on the …

Passive residual heat removal heat exchanger (PRHR HX) is a key equipment in advanced
passive safety pressurized water reactors (PWRs), such as AP1000. Immerged in the In …

U-tube steam generator, as one of the core equipment in nuclear power plants, has radially
non-uniform heating on the secondary side, which complicates the progress of heat transfer …

An experimental and theoretical research has been carried out for vertically upward two-
phase flow of air–water across staggered rod bundles having inclination angles of 0°, 45° …
