| dc.description.abstract | In this work a numerical simulation of the downcomer channel of the Energy Amplifier Demonstration Facility (EADF) [1, 2] is presented. The simulation is fully three-dimensional (3D) and is focused on a transient analysis. All relevant heat transfer phenomena are taken into account. Starting from the nominal power configuration, we have simulated the response of the system to a power shutdown of the core for a period of 60 s. The core shutdown is simulated imposing a linear variation of the inlet flow temperature from 400°C to 305°C in 10 s. The simulation shows the evolution of the thermal stratification outside the IHX and the evolution of the IHX operation. | IT |
