This paper presents the detailed finite element modeling used in performing an analysis of internal tubing within a helically coiled Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor (LMFBR) Steam Generator. It provides a qualitative approach to account for the effects of tube and clamp interaction loads resulting from differential thermal expansion and seismic loadings. The model is also used to describe the natural frequency characteristics of the entire tube system for evaluation of flow-induced vibration loadings.
