Numerical Study of Bubble Coalescence and Breakup in the Reactor Fuel Channel with a Vaned Grid
The characteristics of bubbles of different sizes in fuel assembly are vital to two-phase flow resistance and heat transfer capacity. However, due to the swirl flow caused by the mixing vane, bubbles can crowd at the heated surface, which may anticipate the occurrence of departure from nucleation bo...
