This problem is studied for different streamwise and spanwisedistances between two cubes in different Renolds number （Re）, by using finite-volume method.Effects of these parameters are considered on flow and heat transfer characteristics. The resultsshow that the temperature distribution is strongly dependent on flow structure and varies with anychange of flow pattern in different arrangements of cubes.

It specifically addresses the possibility of fluid vibration induced in a pipeline network of such a plant. The authors investigate the flow oscillation induced within a T-junction for laminar steady flow at a Reynolds number less than 10<sup>3</sup> and clarify that there is a periodic fluid oscillation with a constant Strouhal number independent of several flow conditions. Generally, a nuclear electric power plant is constructed using straight pipes, elbows, and T-junctions. Indeed, a T-Junction is a basic fluid element of a pipeline network. The flow in a fluid power plant is turbulent. There are peculiar flow phenomena that occur at high Reynolds numbers, which are also seen in other flow situations;e.g., Kaman vortices are observed around a circular cylinder in low Reynolds numbers, around structures like bridges and downstream of islands in oceans. Although the flow situation of a T-junction and elbow in a fluid power plant, such as the fluid suddenly changing its flow direction is turbulent flow, the authors mention the possibility of the fluid-induced vibration of a pipeline network.展开更多
