Thermal Cracking Analysis during Pipe Cooling of Mass Concrete Using Particle Flow Code

Pipe cooling systems are among the potentially effective measures to control the temperature of mass concrete. However, if not properly controlled, thermal cracking in concrete, especially near water pipes, might occur, as experienced in many mass concrete structures. In this paper, a new numerical...
