The Belgian Nuclear Research Centre (SCK•CEN) is at the forefront of heavy liquid-metal (HLM) nuclear technology worldwide with development Multi-purpose hYbrid Reactor for High-tech Applications (MYRRHA) accelerator-driven system. MYRRHA a flexible fast-spectrum pool-type research reactor cooled by lead bismuth eutectic (LBE) and has been identified as European Technology Pilot Plant lead-cooled fast reactor. Given innovative nature MYRRHA, project currently going through prelicensing...
In the present work, we combine experiments and numerical simulations of a planar jet with heated co-flow medium (air) low-Prandtl (He-Xe gas mixture) fluids. Jets are recognized as representative test cases to be investigated in large components pool-type liquid metal-cooled nuclear systems, like Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Applications (MYRRHA), currently under design at SCK•CEN. The configuration mimics closed wind tunnel that is designed operated VKI generate an...
In the present work, we have applied a combined dynamic large-eddy simulation (LES) and direct numerical (DNS) approach for three-dimensional planar jet in turbulent forced convection regime (Re = 18000) with heated co-flow. Results from LES are compared Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations experimental data. We analyzed flow heat transfer features four values of characteristic Prandtl numbers (Pr 0.71, 0.2, 0.025, 0.006), which representatives air, He-Xe gas mixture,...
