SOME THERMOHYDRAULIC PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SAFETY OF WATER COOLED NUCLEAR REACTORS
Abstrakt
This paper outlines some of the thermohydrauliÑ problems raised at the recent Sizewell Inquiry into the safety of the P.W.R. The evaluation model and best estimate approach are discussed and some of the difficulties in obtaining reliable two phase flow data for the latter are described with particular reference to flow patterns and non-equilibrium effects during refill.
