Post DNB Heat Transfer Experiments for PWR Fuel Assemblies

概要

論文の詳細を見る
Nuclear Power Engineering Corporation (NUPEC) and Mitsubishi performed heat transfer experiments on post DNB (departure from nucleate boiling) for the pressurized water reactor (PWR) fuel assemblies under the sponsorship of the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) as one of a series of fuel assembly verification tests. Based on the obtained experimental data, a new evaluation model for the fuel rod heat transfer behavior after DNB was developed. A large safety margin, which had remained in the present thermal-hydraulic design that did not allow DNB, was confirmed by applying the developed model to the PWR plant safety analysis.
