Abstract: Empirical/semi-empirical correlations are available in the literature to quantify the effect of several major parameters, like bulk pressure, non-condensable gas mass fraction, and wall subcooling, on condensation heat ...

Abstract: A significant amount of hydrogen may be released inside the containment of water-cooled nuclear power reactor under postulated accident conditions. Its distribution in the multicompartment containment geometry must be known ...

Abstract: Heat transfer coefficient (HTC) relations developed using steady-state experimental data are used for capturing the complete heat transport characteristic in a severe nuclear accident. It is important to verify the ...
