Abstract
The design of a nuclear power plant requires the consideration of many abnormal conditions, including the effects of a fluid jet emerging from a postulated break in a high-pressure pipe and striking other plant components. This paper describes the computer graphics and three-dimensional modeling system, MODEL/IMAGES2, which has been used successfully to automate the solution of the jet impingement problem. The MODEL program is used to construct the targets, using modeling techniques such as stacking of graphic primitives, set operations, and coordinate operations. The IMAGES2 program constructs a model of the fluid jet, determines the target struck, and computes the impinged areas. The MODEL/IMAGES2 system has reduced the man-hours required for analysis and improved the accuracy and reliability of the results.
