Numerical Study of Liquid Metal Turbulent Heat Transfer in Cross-Flow Tube Banks

Heavy liquid metals (HLM) are attractive coolants for nuclear fission and fusion applications due to their excellent thermal properties. In these reactors, a high coolant flow rate must be processed in compact heat exchangers, and as such, it may be convenient to have the HLM flowing on the shell si...
