What the buyer wrote

Collect and analyse information for the experiments conducted to simulate ballooning behaviour and to investigate flow area blockage in the following three conditions:  LBLOCA refill phase;  LBLOCA reflood phase;  SBLOCA boildown phase. This analysis should also consider the PAKS event and should make judgements on the influence of bundle size and radial constraint when drawing conclusions for the reactor. Identify the modelling methods and computer codes that are currently used to predict flow area blockage and subsequent effect on heat transfer of fuel at higher (50 – 80 GWd/tU) burnup PWR fuel in accident conditions; Select three sets of modelling methods and related computer cod…
