Numerical analysis on the hydro dynamic performance of the advanced accumulators

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The advanced accumulator is used in the nuclear power station and plays an important role in a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). In this paper, a prototype model of the advanced accumulator based on the existing ones abroad was proposed and studied by using numerical simulation. The results show that for the proposed model the required variation pattern of the water flow rate with time can be obtained by using multi-scale mesh.
