FLOEFD CALCULATION ASSESSMENT TO EXPERIMENTAL DATA IN NUCLEAR SAFETY CASE

摘要

This paper presents the results of comparison between CFD code FloEFD and an experiment in Kozloduy NPP concerning coolant mixing. This comparison is done with purpose to find out behavior of FloEFD to manage complex tasks. Real experimental data is used from a performed experiment in the frame of an international project on nuclear safety. The main assessment point is the temperature distribution of the coolant at core inlet. A representative parameter is considered axis of minimal mixing. Also, temperature distribution in the down chamber at level 2.5m from the bottom is assessed.
