Scaling analysis for the pebble bed of the very high temperature gas-cooled reactor thermal hydraulic test facility

Creator:

Nelson, Benjamin L.

Abstract:

The Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR) has two possible core configurations, a hexagonal prismatic and a pebble bed. It is essential that an experimental facility be built for the validation of computer codes for the safe operation of the VHTR. The scaling of the prismatic core configuration has been analyzed...
