Numerical Analysis of General Trends in Single-Phase Natural Circulation in a 2D-Annular Loop
The aim of this paper is to address fluid flow behavior of natural circulation in a 2D-annular loop filled with water. A two-dimensional, numerical analysis of natural convection in a 2D-annular closed-loop thermosyphon has been performed for various radius ratios from 1.2 to 2.0, the loop being hea...
