Abstract

This paper presents the development and practical application of a dynamic mathematical model for the simulation of the transient thermal-hydraulic analysis of Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs). In the development of the mathematical model, the reactor core thermal-hydraulic model for the coolant flow along the fuel pin channel is based on the moving boundary concept. Some results from the transient analysis are examined to evaluate the thermal-hydraulic performance of the mathematical model using moving boundaries. These analyses show that the predictions of the mathematical model based on the moving boundary formulation provide a suitable analytical tool for the transient thermal-hydraulic analysis of BWRs.
