Abstract
A three-dimensional analysis method for the sloshing behavior of sodium in FBRs is developed. The method treats the coolant in a reactor vessel as a potential flow with moving liquid surfaces. The Laplace equation of the velocity potential is solved by a boundary element method of which the boundary condition is described by the Bernoulli equation. Vibration test results of water in a rectangular pool are calculated to verify the present method. The calculated water amplitude agreed to the test result within 15%. Then the method is applied to the analysis of the sloshing behavior in tank type and loop type FBRs.
