Theoretical and Numerical Study of Heat Transfer Deterioration in High Performance Light Water Reactor

A numerical investigation of the heat transfer deterioration (HTD) phenomena is performed using the low-Re k-ω turbulence model. Steady-state Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved together with equations for the transport of enthalpy and turbulence. Equations are solved for the superc...
