Abstract Steam generators are one of the most important components of pressurized-water reactors. This component plays the role of heat transfer and pressure boundary between primary and secondary side fluids. The Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG) is an essential component of the integrated nuclear power system. In this paper, steady-state analysis of primary and secondary fluids in the Integral Economizer Once Through Steam Generator (IEOTSG) have been presented by Single Heated Channel (SHC) and subchannel modelling. Models have been programmed by MATLAB and FORTRAN. First, SHC model has been used for this purpose (changes are considered only in the axial direction in this model). Second, the subchannel approach that considers changes in the axial and also radial directions has been applied. Results have been compared with Babcock and Wilcox (B&W) 19- tube once through steam generator experimental data. Thermal- hydraulic profiles have been presented for steam generator using both of models. Accuracy and simplicity of SHC model and importance of localization of thermal-hydraulic profiles in subchannel approach have been proved.

A non-linear analysis procedure has been developed to investigate the plastic behavior of the divider (or partition) plate in Steam Generators (SG) of Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs). The integrity of the divider plate in the primary channel head of a Steam Generator of a Pressurized Water Reactor has to be verified for a postulated loss of coolant accident (LOCA). Primary stresses due to differential pressure Δp have to be analyzed for faulted conditions. A static elastic-plastic finite element analysis for the divider plate was performed showing unrealistically high plastic deformation due to the high differential pressure loading resulting from the assumption of rigid walls in the fluid analysis. Therefore the LOCA is analyzed in a Fluid Structure Interaction Analysis (FSIA), representing the divider plate as a single degree of freedom system (SDOFS) acting like a piston. The present paper explains how the Δp across the plate was correlated with an equivalent displacement ve and how the mass of the plate is considered. In the FSIA a realistic dynamic response of the divider plate is considered now, with a significant reduction of differential pressure Δp. The analysis results proved the resistance of the divider plate with sufficient margin.
