Multiphysics Simulation and Thermal Characterization of VVER-1200 Steam Generator for Optimized Heat Transfer and Structural Integrity
Abstract: VVER-1200 is a Russian design reactor which consist of Two circuits comprising reactor core, piping, vertical steam generator, pressurizer, active and passive safety systems, turbine and generator. This reactor involves single phase flow from reactor core to steam generator (SG) where high pressurized water exchanges heat with normal water resulting in steam production. The flow is turbulent, which enables maximum efficiency to heat transfer. Using ANSYS Workbench's multi-physics simulation capabilities, …

CFD Analysis: Double Pipe Heat Exchanger, Latent Heat Storage, and BIM-CFD Integration
Abstract: This is a review work covering four research papers. Heat exchangers transport thermal energy across fluids; research in SolidWorks 2014 compared flow simulation to the effectiveness-NTU approach. Slow PCM charging/discharging is a global concern in latent heat storage; research on the influence of flow rate and temperature on melting and solidification durations discovered efficiency in a triple tube heat exchanger design. Advances in computational fluid dynamics for forecasting separated flows …
