高速炉蒸気発生器でのナトリウム-水反応領域にある伝熱管の高温ラプチャ評価には流体-伝熱管の熱移行量評価が必要となる。管表面熱伝達率は伝熱管周囲の流体速度やボイド率の影響を受けるため、本報では、ナトリウム-水反応時の伝熱管近傍の流動様式を定量評価し、反応流域での管外熱伝達率とボイド率の相関関係を構築し、相関図をもとにナトリウム-水反応実験時のボイド率分布の時間変化を評価した。

When a heat transfer tube fails in steam generator (SG) of sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR), sodium-water reaction (SWR) would take place. It is significant for estimation of the heat transfer from the fluid to the tube wall during SWR region to evaluate the possibility of the secondary tube failure in case of overheating rupture. In the present study, thermal hydraulics simulation of the fluid around the tube is conducted. The heat transfer coefficient is computed, the correlation diagram between the heat transfer coefficient and the void fraction has been obtained. The void fraction around the heat transfer tube in the SWR has been evaluated.
