Researches on Special Thermal Hydraulic Phenomena of Annular Fuel Assembly by Sub-Channel Analysis Code-NACAF

Dual cooled annular fuel is a novel fuel design, which has the potential to improve the reactor power density while maintaining or improving its safety margin. The effects of tight-lattice geometry, fuel burnup, fuel expansion, coolant channel blockage on the thermal hydraulic performance of annular...
