Experimental study of axial and crossflow velocity in a 7-pin wire wrapped bundle

Description: The results of an experimental study of axial and crossflow velocity in a 7-pin wire wrapped bundle similar for FFTF fuel bundles are reported. The results are compared with the forced crossflow model of the COBRA-III C computer program. (JWR)

Porous body model for predicting temperature distributions in wire wrapped fuel and blanket assemblies of a LMFBR

Description: Existing methods of thermal analysis of a wire wrapped rod bundle of a Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor are based on the principle of subchannel analysis. A model for thermal transport in wire wrapped rod bundles is developed here. The model is similar in principle to the one which has long been successfully used in chemical engineering for heat and mass transfer in fixed beds of packed solids. By dividing the bundle into two predominant regions and applying the model of a porous body to a LMF… more

Single cluster corrosion test summary, August 1965 to March 1966

Description: ABS>Declassified 29 Aug 1973. Accomplishments on the HHT-4 Cluster Corrosion Test from September 1965 to March 1966 are described. The development of hardware, techniques, and procedures to upgrade the state-of-theart of high temperature corrosion testing of complete clusters is discussed. In addition, testing of support block and components designs in support of NRX-A4 and NRX-A5 designs using the cluster test is reviewed. 5 references. (auth)

Vibration of fuel bundles

Description: Several mathematical models have been proposed for calculating fuel rod responses in axial flows based on a single rod consideration. The spacing between fuel rods in liquid metal fast breeder reactors is small; hence fuel rods will interact with one another due to fluid coupling. The objective of this paper is to study the coupled vibration of fuel bundles. To account for the fluid coupling, a computer code, AMASS, is developed to calculate added mass coefficients for a group of circular cylin… more

Fundamental Approach to TRIGA Steady-State Athermal-Hydraulic CHF Analysis.

Description: Methods are investigated for predicting the power at which critical heat flux (CHF) occurs in TRIGA reactors that rely on natural convection for primary flow. For a representative TRIGA reactor, two sets of functions are created. For the first set, the General Atomics STAT code and the more widely-used RELAP5-3D code are each employed to obtain reactor flow rate as a function of power. For the second set, the Bernath correlation, the 2006 Groeneveld table, the Hall and Mudawar outlet correlatio… more
