Void volumes in subcooled boiling systems
Introduction: Knowledge of the pressure drop in a channel and the resulting flow redistribution is essential in predicting the performance of a nuclear reactor. The pressure drop in a channel which is experiencing boiling is, in part, dependent on the void volumes present. In this report the results...

| description | Introduction: Knowledge of the pressure drop in a channel and the resulting flow redistribution is essential in predicting the performance of a nuclear reactor. The pressure drop in a channel which is experiencing boiling is, in part, dependent on the void volumes present. In this report the results of an experimental investigation of the void volumes in systems at 500, 1000, and 1500 psia are presented. A method of predicting the void volumes is then presented. Finally, a comparison of measured end predicted void volumes is made with data collected at 2000 psia under completely different conditions. Agreement with the data is very good. |
