摘要
The rewetting or quench temperature of a hot solid surface at which a liquid can reestablish contact with the dry surface. An estimation of this temperature is essential in predicting the rate at which the coolant quenches the core of a light-water reactor (LWR) after a loss-of-coolant accident. The present study reviews and evaluates previous work in this area and presents a model relating experiments to theory for the different possible types of reflood in LWRs. It is postulated that the quench temperature corresponds to either the minimum film boiling temperature or the Leidenfrost temperature. In cases where there are such exceptions, the quench temperature corresponds to the critical heat flux temperature. New correlations for the rewetting or quench temperature are presented.
