The heat transfer tube of steam generator is an important part of the primary loop boundary, the integrity is crucial to the safe operation of the whole reactor system; the flow induced vibration is one of the main factors leading to the failure of heat transfer tube in steam generator. Both ASME and RG1.20 have made a clear requirement for the analysis and evaluation of the flow induced vibration of steam generator. The flow induced vibration of heat transfer tube in two-phase flow is the difficult and important content in the analysis. In this paper, the finite element model of heat transfer tube is established and the modal analysis is carried out. Then in order to evaluate the influence of two-phase flow in the secondary side and support boundary constraint, the analytical results are compared with the natural frequencies of the heat transfer tube measured in the two-phase flow test. On the basis of accurate simulation of the dynamic characteristics of heat transfer tube in two-phase flow, the paper calculate the turbulent excitation response and the fluidelastic instability ratio aiming at the main mechanism causing the flow induced vibration of heat transfer tube in two-phase flow. Firstly, the modified PSD of turbulent excitation is proposed on the foundation of root mean square displacement amplitude of heat transfer tube measured in two-phase flow test. The calculation result of the amplitude of heat transfer tube with different void fraction can envelope the test result by using the modified PSD as input, and the safety margin is reasonable. Then we also verify whether the analysis conclusion of fluidelastic instability is in agreement with the test. Finally, the analytical technique is applied to the analysis of flow induced vibration of steam generator to verify the design of structure. The paper studies on flow induced vibration analysis and evaluation a heat transfer tube of steam generator in two-phase flow. The analysis program of flow induced vibration on the basis of the test results. The investigation can be used for the risk prediction and evaluation of flow induced vibration of heat transfer tube in two-phase flow, solve the technical difficulties of flow induced vibration analysis in two-phase flow, and provide the technical support for the flow induced vibration analysis of steam generator.

The flow induced vibration of heat transfer tube is one of the main factors leading to the failure of heat transfer tube in steam generator, the flow induced vibration of steam generator should be analyzed and evaluated in the design of steam generation. The flow induced vibration of heat transfer tube in two phase flow is the difficult and important content in the analysis.

On the basis of accurate simulation of the dynamic characteristics of heat transfer tube in two phase flow, the paper calculate the turbulent excitation response and the fluid-elastic instability ratio aiming at the main mechanism causing the flow induced vibration of heat transfer tube in two phase flow.

As an excellent cryogenic cooling medium, Nitrogen (N2) has been used in a variety of engineering fields, where the determination of N2 two-phase flow boiling heat transfer is required. There were some studies evaluating the correlations of flow boiling heat transfer coefficient for N2. However, either the number of correlations covered or the number of data used was limited. This work presents a comparative review of existing correlations of flow boiling heat transfer coefficients for N2 applications. A database of N2 flow boiling heat transfer containing 1043 experimental data points is compiled to evaluate 45 correlations of two-phase flow boiling heat transfer. The experimental parameters cover the ranges of mass flux from 28.0 to 1684.8 kg/m2s, heat flux from 0.2 to 135.6 kW/m2, vapor quality from 0.002 to 0.994, saturation pressure from 0.1 to 3.16 MPa, and channel inner diameter from 0.351 to 14 mm. The results show that the best correlation has a mean absolute deviation of 31.8% against the whole database, suggesting that more efforts should be made to study N2 flow boiling heat transfer to develop a more accurate correlation.
