Steam Generator Management Program—Steam Generator Foreign Object Wear Estimation Model: Volume I: Fundamental Model and Simulation Results and Volume II: Modeling Details and CFD Analysis
Decades of operating nuclear experience have shown that foreign objects in steam generator tube bundles can lead to costly damage. When subjected to a rapid water flow, an object’s repeated motion can wear a tube’s surface, causing a leak. This report describes research to develop a model to estimate how long it takes for a […]
