Development and validation of BUSCA code: a modelto assess the aerosol and fission product retention in a water pool

Monte Carlo simulation of aerosol transport in rising gas bubbles undergoing shape deformation

“…Transport of particles in bubbles is common in wet scrubbing processes, and in the phenomenology of certain accident scenarios for boiling water reactors (BWRs) and liquid metal fast breeder reactors (LMFBRs), (Owczarski, Postma, & Schreck, 1985;Wassel, Mills, & Bugby, 1985;Jonas & Schültz, 1988;Ghiaasiaan, Wassel, & Lin, 1993;Calvo, Guntay, & Ramsdale, 1991;Miyahara & Sagawa, 1996;and Herranz et al, 1997). Rigorous modeling of particle removal in rising bubbles is difficult, however, due to the complicated bubble hydrodynamics and the coupling among a multitude of mechanisms that contribute to particle motion.…”

In the latter applications, important aerosol transport phenomena occur in a number of processes, including during the time the bubble is rising in the pool.…”

A Theoretical Model for Deposition of Aerosols in Rising Spherical Bubbles due to Diffusion, Convection, and Inertia

“…In recent years, -several computer programs, addressing aerosol transport in bubbles rising in liquid pools, have been developed (Owczarski et al, 1985;Wassel et al, 1985;Jonas and Schiitz, 1988;Ghiaasiaan et al, 1993;Calvo et al, 1991).…”
