Evaluation of RANS-Based Turbulence Models for the Propagation of Stratified Fronts in Buoyancy-Driven Flow
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool in the design of next-generation nuclear reactors. These reactors are designed to be inherently safe, utilizing physical phenomena such as buoyancy and natural convection to cool the core in the event forced circulation fails. However, the widely...
