CFD applications in the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor Project: a decade of progress

Kleingeld, Marius; Janse van Rensburg, Jacobus Johannes (Elsevier, 2011)

Of all the systems and components that have to be designed for a nuclear plant, the Reactor Unit is the most significant since it is at the very heart of the plant. At Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (Pty) Ltd. (PBMR), the ...
An integral CFD approach for the thermal simulation of the PBMR reactor unit

Kleingeld, Marius; Janse van Rensburg, Jacobus Johannes (Elsevier, 2011)

A CFD method was developed to conduct integral thermal reactor analysis for the complete Reactor Unit of the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (Pty) Ltd (PBMR). The requirement was however also to include very detailed aspects ...
Investigating leakage and bypass flows in an HTR using a CFD methodology

Kleingeld, Marius; Janse van Rensburg, Jacobus Johannes (Elsevier, 2011)

An area that has been identified as significantly important in the development of a high temperature reactor (HTR) is the prediction of leakage and bypass flows. It is therefore essential to understand the influence of ...
