Modeling of Thermohydraulics in a Lead-Cooled Reactor System - A CFD Study Using OpenFOAM
This study investigates the thermal-hydraulics of a simplified model of Blykalla's Swedish Advanced Lead-cooled Reactor (SEALER) using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in OpenFOAM. The objective is to develop and verify a system-level model for forced and natural convection. The reactor cooling circuit is represented using porous media and volumetric source terms. Simulations are conducted u
