The model is used to predict the velocity, temperature, and molar concentration profiles in the tapered annulus of a reactor for silicon deposition from SiCl_4 in H_2. Results of the investigation contribute to the understanding of the transport pro- cesses involved in such a system. The model can also be used for optimizing the design parameters, such as inlet flow rate, susceptor tilt angle, etc.展开更多

The 2-D relative neutron intensity profiles for the water-vapor two-phase flow inside the robe were obtained using the MCNP code without influence of y-ray and electronic-noise.The MCNP simulation of the 2-D neutron intensity profile for the water-vapor two-phase flow was demonstrated.The simulated 2-D neutron intensity profiles could be used as the benchmark data base by calibrating part of the data measured by the CARR-NRI.The 3-D objective images allow us to understand the flow pattern more clearly and it is reconstructed using the MATLAB through the threshold transformation techniques.And thus it is concluded that the MCNP code and the MATLAB are very useful for constructing the benchmark data base for the investigation of the water-vapor two-phase flow using the CARR-NRI.展开更多
