Numerical analysis of the venturi flowmeter in the liquid lead-bismuth eutectic circuit after long-term operation

The liquid Lead-bismuth eutectic is used as the coolant for Gen-IV reactor concepts. However, due to its strong corrosive and high operating temperature, it is difficult to accurately measure the flow rate in long-term operating conditions. Venturi flowmeter is a simple structured flowmeter, which p...
