Fluidic diode for critical two-phase flows
Abstract:
A fluidic diode for critical two-phase flows is developed and validated for the boiling water reactor KERENA. To investigate the fluidic behavior of this fluidic diode, a 3D cavitation model accounting for non-equilibrium and quality effects is developed. This model is the first application of the stochastic-field method to multi-phase flow. Validation of this model indicates that agreement with experimental results is obtained for very differing applications with a fixed set of model constants.
