Study on Specifics of Forced-Convective Heat Transfer in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

The appropriate description of heat-transfer to coolants at supercritical state is limited by the current understanding. Thus, poses one of the main challenges in development of supercritical-fluids applications for the Generation–IV reactors. The objective of the paper is, therefore, to discuss the basis for comparison of relatively recent experimental data on supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) obtained at facilities of the Korea Atomic Energy …
