Thermal-Hydraulic Analyses of Steam Generator Tube Rupture Accident for the Kori Nuclear Unit 1 Pressurized Thermal Shock Study

Assessment of boiler tubes overheating mechanisms during a postulated loss of feedwater accident

“…However, such computational tools were not broadly used to perform thermal-hydraulic safety analysis of industrial steam boilers as it is the case in the nuclear industry [14,15]. Actually, simplified models are generally used to model conventional steam boilers, and if complex models are used their applications range is limited to the system they have been developed for [16,17].…”
