Numerical study of thermohydraulics induced by highly under-expanded jet during in-vessel LOCA for the CFETR WCCB concept by Jinghua Jiang, Jun He, Tianyu Chen, Lili Tong, Xuewu Cao, Songlin Liu

“…Comparisons of temperature and pressure variations at different monitoring points reveal that if the bursting valve is positioned at the furthest location, the pressure at the jet impingement surface may reach the VV’s pressure limit before the VV Pressure Suppression System is activated, as determined using the lumped-parameter analysis method. Additionally, temperature rises caused by gas compression at wave crossings pose challenges to the VV material’s thermal limits. …”
