Development of thermal hydraulic correlations for the University of Texas at Austin TRIGA reactor using computational fluid dynamics and in-core measurements

Safety is a paramount concern in the operation of training and test reactors. A major component of a reactor is the maintenance of safe thermal hydraulic operating conditions. If the temperature of the water coolant exceeds the boiling point, the heat transfer out of the fuel rods into the coolant...
