Abstract

Natural convention, the heat transfer on fluid due to density differences that can be caused by differences in fluid temperature. One example application of natural convection is cooling system, such as nuclear reactor cooling system. The purpose of this study is to analysis the basic characteristic heat transfer of sodium liquid in the natural circulation system for steady state analysis and transient characteristic with Finite Element Method. The selected module is the Non-Isothermal FLow (NITF) module. This module is a combination of three basic equations, namely the continuity equation, the Navier-Stokes equation, and the dynamic equation of heat transfer in fluid. The simulation model measures 1.5 x 2 (m) with sodium liquid (Na) as a fluid.
