Numerical Simulation Study on the Air/Water Counter- current Flow Limitation in Nuclear Reactors

After a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) in a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR), the temperature of the fuel elements cladding increases dramatically due to the heat produced by the fission products decay, which is not adequately removed by the vapor contained in the core. In order to avoid this shar...
