Computational fluid dynamic investigations of flow through an aged CANDU pressure tube
(2021-08-01)
Single-phase, isothermal computational fluid dynamics simulations of twelve simplified CANDUTM 37M fuel bundles sitting in both as-received and aged pressure tubes were performed with Hydra in this work. The predicted ...
A Computational Fluid Dynamics based model that predicts wall shear stress in CANDU outlet feeder pipes
(2018-01-01)
Wall thinning of carbon steel in CANDU reactor outlet feeder pipes due to Flow Accelerated Corrosion (FAC) is identified as one of the challenges for CANDU reactors since it would force them to shut down due to safety ...
