  • Shoreline changes due to jetty construction on the Oregon Coast

    Creator:
    Lizarraga Arciniega, Jose Roman
    Abstract:
    Patterns of beach erosion and accretion due to jetty construction are examined for the coast of Oregon. All jetty systems are included with the exception of those on the Columbia River, making a total of nine systems. All evidence indicates that these areas of the Oregon coast are experiencing a...

  • A study of opposing mixed convection in the GRTS and in downward pipe flows using the FLUENT CFD code

    Creator:
    Jackson, R. Brian
    Abstract:
    Downward flow opposing mixed convection conditions have been studied using the FLUENT CFD code. This work was comprised of two primary objectives. The first was to study core channel flow reversal susceptibility in the Gas Reactor Test Section (GRTS) at low flow conditions. The second objective was the development of...

  • Assessment of level swell measurements in the OSU APEX Test Facility

    Creator:
    Ellis, Christopher P.
    Abstract:
    The purposes of this paper are to present the results of an experimental effort to measure the level swell in an air/water system and to generate a methodology for determining the volume-averaged void fraction within the Oregon State University (OSU) Advanced Plant Experiment (APEX) Test Facility. The results were then...

  • An experimental and analytical analysis of a heated thermocouple flow device

    Creator:
    Franz, Scott C.
    Abstract:
    The topic of this thesis is to discuss an investigation made for a fluid velocity measuring device. The OSU thermal hydraulic testing facility is interested in using a small probe to measure fluid velocities in the annular region of a model nuclear reactor vessel. A heater with a thermocouple embedded...

  • Axial development of two-phase flow parameters in a vertical column

    Creator:
    Abel, Kent C.
    Abstract:
    The next generation of nuclear safety analysis computer codes will include detailed modeling of the interfacial area concentration. The interfacial area concentration is the essence of the two-fluid model. It is the most accurate of the two-phase models since it considers each phase independently and links the two phases together...

  • SBLOCA analysis for nuclear plant shutdown operations

    Creator:
    Wang, Yi
    Abstract:
    A series of small break loss of coolant accident (SBLOCA) analyses in nuclear plant shutdown operations was simulated using the code RELAP5A,MOD3 version 8.0 to predict the SBLOCA phenomena in the Zion-l nuclear power plant The first objective is to study the impact of SBLOCA (1" and 2" breaks) on...

  • Pressure losses across a 180 degree turn in the AP1000 cooling annulus

    Creator:
    Nelson, Roy K.
    Abstract:
    A one-sixth scaled facility was constructed at Oregon State University to determine the pressure losses around Westinghouse's AP1000 Passive Containment Cooling System. An explanation of the AP1000 Passive Containment Cooling System is given. This study examined the pressure loss and loss coefficient around the 180 degree turn of the Passive...

  • Numerical analysis of condensation induced water-hammer in horizontal piping systems

    Creator:
    Eichenberg, Thomas William
    Abstract:
    Condensation Induced Water-Hammer, CIWH, has been an historical problem for the nuclear power industry over the past 2 decades. It has caused damage to plant systems, and considerable anguish to plant operators. This thesis has embarked on an attempt to characterize the fluid motion, heat transfer, mixing, and stability of...

  • Study of interfacial condensation in a nuclear reactor core makeup tank

    Creator:
    Ma, Chang Chun
    Abstract:
    Steam interfacial condensation in a core makeup tank was simulated using the code RELAP5/MOD3 version 8.0 to predict the violent pressure oscillation phenomena in a core makeup tank. Six base cases were carried out to study the effects of back pressure and of vacuum conditions produced in the core makeup...
