Development and validation of wall and interfacial friction models in LOCUST for reactor downcomer with direct vessel injection

The multi-dimensional thermal-hydraulic phenomena in the downcomer of advanced pressurized water reactor with direct vessel injection system are the key points for the safety analysis during a loss of coolant accident. In order to improve the accuracy of LOCUST code for the predictions of thermal-hy...
