Abstract
The generation and development of coherent structure in 7-rod bundle lattice are researched by Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) method with the Reynolds Stress Model (RSM). The influence of the coherent structure on the flow resistance and heat transfer coefficient is also analyzed. It is revealed that the coherent structure is helpful to improve the performance of lattice. Decreasing the pitch-to-diameter (P/D) or properly changing the shape of rod can contribute to the generation of coherent structure. The flow redistribution caused by corner channel has great influence to the coherent structure.
