摘要
The passive residual heat removal system (PRHRS) is adopted by the HTR-10 and HTR-PM to remove the decay heat in the reactor core, so that the safety of the reactor can be guaranteed under accident conditions. A multi-scale CFD-system coupled code used to calculate the transient characteristics of the PRHRS of HTR-10 was developed in this study. With this coupled code, the transient characteristics of the PRHRS during the startup process were calculated. The results show that the computational results are in good agreement with the experimental results, which validates the accuracy of the coupled code. The ability of the coupled code to simultaneously calculate the local heat transfer process in the reactor cavity and the global heat removal characteristic of the PRHRS is also shown. Moreover, radiation heat transfer plays a very important role in the heat removal process of the PRHRS. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
