Influence of inlet velocity condition on unsteady flow characteristics in piping with a short elbow under a high-Reynolds-number condition

In the design of the Advanced Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor in Japan, the mean velocity of the coolant is approximately 9 m/s in the primary hot leg (H/L) piping, which has a diameter of 1.27 m. The Reynolds number in the H/L piping reaches 4.2 × 107. Furthermore, a short elbow, which has Rc/D = 1.0 (R...
