Assessment of the three-dimensional flow field in the reactor pressure vessel in Hualong One nuclear power plants

This study uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to investigate the three-dimensional flow field under normal operating conditions in the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) in the Hualong One nuclear power plants (NPPs). With a particular focus on the flowrate distribution at the core inlet, the numeri...
