Numerical investigation of steady state characteristics and stability of supercritical water natural circulation loop of a heater and cooler arrangements

The present paper studies the thermal-hydraulic behaviour of the rectangular supercritical natural circulation loop (SCNCL) using numerical model of one dimensional. Then the results of this model is confirmed with experimental and benchmark results. Variations with several geometric parameters like...
