Subchannel analysis of CANDU-SCWR fuel

Abstract

A cooperative study has been initiated at Xi'an Jiaotong University (XJTU) with Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) to develop a subchannel code ATHAS for preliminary analyses of flow and enthalpy distributions and cladding temperatures in CANDU fuel at super-critical water conditions. The code is applicable for transient and steady-state calculations. Then the paper uses the ATHAS code to analyze CANDU-SCWR which is operating at 25.0MPa …
