Methods for steady state thermal-hydraulic analysis of pressurized water reactor cores

A one-pass simplified analysis method for steady state PWR core has been developed. The advantages over the other multistage approaches have been discussed and compared- Recommended nodal patterns for modelling the reactor core have been proposed. Also the effect due to the lumped channel te...
