- CT1Turbulent momentum, modeling parameter [-].
Default:1
C++ Type:double
Unit:(no unit assumed)
Controllable:No
Description:Turbulent momentum, modeling parameter [-].
SCMMixingKimAndChung
Class that models the turbulent mixing coefficient using the Kim and Chung correlations.
Overview
This closure class is used to model the turbulent mixing coefficient using the Kim and Chung correlations. Specifically this closure model applies to triangular and quadrilateral assemblies with bare pins. The implementation followed:
A scale analysis of the turbulent mixing rate for various Prandtl number flow fields in rod bundles eq 25,Kim and Chung (2001) Kim and Chung (2001).
Modeling of flow blockage in a liquid metal-cooled reactor subassembly with a subchannel analysis code eq 19, Jeong et. al (2005)Jeong et al. (2005).
The implemented mixing Stanton number is
where , , and is the lattice-dependent axial length scale. Because this closure is intended for low-Prandtl-number liquid-metal applications, the implementation flags a solution warning when the local average is outside the expected low- range.
Information about the use of can be found in Turbulent crossflow. Additionally, the user may opt to provide the turbulent momentum mixing parameter CT. Information about the use of this parameter can be found in Turbulent momentum transfer.
