VELVET2; turbulent flow in LMFBR rod bundle. [GE635; FORTRAN IV]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6489492
VELVET2 solves the coupled, heat-transfer equations in the fuel, gap, cladding, and coolant for a triangular-spaced, close-packed, fuel rod bundle with liquid metal coolant. The model includes temperature-dependent material properties, turbulent velocity distribution in the coolant, and contributions to coolant heat transfer by turbulent mixing.GE635; FORTRAN IV; GECOS; 32K memory.
