The existence and uniqueness of the classical solution can be obtained by Friedman and Jiang's methods. The positivity of the solution is proved and the conditions for the coolant flux under which the abladtion process will complete in finite time are also determined. Finally, we show the existence of critical coolant flux beyond which the ablation material begin melting.展开更多

This concerns the Westinghouse standard three-loops plant for which the RHR is the low pressure part of the St (safety injection). In some cases one or both RHR trains may become inoperable for SI function. As a response to this letter, Westinghouse Electric Belgium is providing RELAP5 analyzes for Westinghouse NSSS (nuclear steam supply system) European plants to assess the thermal hydraulic behavior of the RHR suction piping system for ECCS (emergency core cooling system) initiation events postulated to occur during startup/shutdown operations. Several concerns including condensation induced water hammer and voiding at the RHR pump have been investigated. As a conclusion, the analysis allowed to define the bounding hot leg temperature conditions under which both RHR trains remain safely operable. These bounding conditions are then implemented by the customer in their OPs (operating procedures) to achieve safe operations and successful accident management.展开更多

In the present study, Navier-Stokes equations were solved numerically using a 3rd-order MUSCL type TVD finitedifference scheme with a second-order fractionabetep for time integration. Baldwin-Lomax model, that is the algebraic model, called the zero equation model was used in the computations. The effects of initial conditions (initial degree of supersaturation and total temperature in the reservoir) on condensing fiow of moist air in a supersonic circular half nozzle were investigated. In this case, the effect of condensation on the boundary layer was also discussed in detail. As a result, the simulated flow fields were compared with experimental data in good agreement, and the velocity and temperature profiles were largely changed by condensation.展开更多
