The experimental investigations were carried out of a pressurized water nuclear reactor (PWR) with enhanced surface using different concentration (0.5 and 2.0 vol%) of ZnO/DI-water based nanofluids as a coolant. The experimental setup consisted of a flow loop with a nuclear fuel rod section that was heated by electrical current. The fuel rod surfaces were termed as two-dimensional surface roughness (square transverse ribbed surface) and three-dimensional surface roughness (diamond shaped blocks). The variation in temperature of nuclear fuel rod was measured along the length of a specified section. Heat transfer coefficient was calculated by measuring heat flux and temperature differences between surface and bulk fluid. The experimental results of nanofluids were compared with the coolant as a DI-water data. The maximum heat transfer coefficient enhancement was achieved 33% at Re = 1.15 × 105 for fuel rod with three-dimensional surface roughness using 2.0 vol% nanofluids compared to DI-water.

AbstractIn this paper, by using the local one-dimensional (LOD) method, Taylor series expansion and correction for the third derivatives in the truncation error remainder, two high-order compact LOD schemes are established for solving the two- and three- dimensional advection equations, respectively. They have the fourth-order accuracy in both time and space. By the von Neumann analysis method, it shows that the two schemes are unconditionally stable. Besides, the consistency and convergence of them are also proved. Finally, numerical experiments are given to confirm the accuracy and efficiency of the present schemes.

Velocity Autocorrelation

High-speed in-line digital holographic cinematography was used to investigate the diffusion of droplets in locally isotropic turbulence. Droplets of diesel fuel (0.3–0.9mm diameter, specific gravity of 0.85) were injected into a 37×37×37mm3 sample volume located in the center of a 160-liter tank. The turbulence was generated by 4 spinning grids, located symmetrically in the corners of the tank, and was characterized prior to the experiments. The sample volume was back illuminated with two perpendicular collimated beams of coherent laser light and time series of in-line holograms were recorded with two high-speed digital cameras at 500 frames/sec. Numerical reconstruction generated a time series of high-resolution images of the droplets throughout the sample volume. We developed an algorithm for automatically detecting the droplet trajectories from each view, for matching the two views to obtain the three-dimensional tracks, and for calculating the time history of velocity. We also measured the mean fluid motion using 2-D PIV. The data enabled us to calculate the Lagrangian velocity autocorrelation function.

Solute Gradient

The three-dimensional motion observed by Chen & Chen (1997) in the convection cells generated by sideways heating of a solute gradient is further examined by experiments and linear stability analysis. In the experiments, we obtained visualizations and PIV measurements of the velocity of the fluid motion in the longitudinal plane perpendicular to the imposed temperature gradient. The flow consists of a horizontal row of counter-rotating vortices within each convection cell. The magnitude of this secondary motion is approximately one-half that of the primary convection cell. Results of a linear stability analysis of a parallel double-diffusive flow model of the actual ow show that the instability is in the salt-finger mode under the experimental conditions. The perturbation streamlines in the longitudinal plane at onset consist of a horizontal row of counter-rotating vortices similar to those observed in the experiments.
