In this study, the relevant thermal-hydraulic, mechanic-material and burnup effect calculation models were established. On the basis of these mathematic and physic models, a thermal- mechanic-material coupling analysis code for a dispersion-plate-type fuel assembly was independently developed with the consideration of the burnup effects. The coupling program was applied to perform the thermal-mechanical-material behavior analysis of a dispersion-plate-type fuel assembly. Major physical parameters at different burnup stages were well predicted, including flux distribution, temperature profile, Mises stress and mechanic deformations. The result shows that geometric sizes of flow channels are the key parameters determining the coolant flux distribution and the temperature profile of the edge plate presents substantial asymmetry as a result of asymmetric heat transfer caused by the asymmetric geometry. Furthermore, the equivalent stress of base material increased rapidly with burnup because of the thermal expansion and burnup effects, which resulted in substantial plastic deformation and mechanical damage. In addition, the mechanism and process of blistering was investigated for blistering prediction. The result shows that due to the increasing fission gas pressure and the deteriorating yield stress of the cladding, fuel plate blistering may happen when the burnup depth up to a certain value and fuel plate will finally fall into failure as a result of over plastic deformation.

ECC safety injection nozzles are usually placed at the primary circulation pipelines as for the Gen II-plus nuclear reactor. Small Break Loss of Coolant Accident (SBLOCA) may lead to Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) on the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) wall. Based on the Emergency Core Cooling (ECC) of a 2nd generation plus PWR, the CFD software CFX was adopted to simulate the thermal mixing phenomenon of the sub-cooled water from safety injection nozzle and high temperature water or steam from the cold leg which later forms into stratified flow. Also the steam-water simulation takes the steam condensation into consideration and steam condensation is characterized by a relatively large interfacial area between the two phases. For simulations of single-phase thermal mixing, the temperature profiles of different points were obtained and agreed well with the experiment. For steam mixing with water, the gas volume profile and the condensation rate of the steam were obtained and compared with the experiment, and the effect of different injection nozzle water velocities were also studied.
Recently, MAAP and MELCOR research teams completed a set of accident simulations to reconstruct the Fukushima-Daiichi accident in order to better understand severe accident progression. One result from this work was t...

N-butanol/iso-octane blends chemical kinetic mechanism is established on the basis of a nbutanol reaction submodel and part of a high-temperature oxidation mechanism of iso-octane, laminar flame speeds of iso-octane/n-butanol blends are simulated and compared with the experimental data sets. It reveals that the Su increases nonlinearly with the increase of n-butanol in the blend and implies that the intermediates of n-butanol are more reactive. Then detailed kinetic path analysis of both nbutanol and iso-octane was performed to find out the rationale for the accelerating. The most influential intermediate reactions were determined for the blend, and flame propagation is largely negative related to concentration of ic4h8 c3h6 and CH3, while C2H4 and C2H3 contribute to the promotion of laminar flame speeds. Flame structures of n-butanol blending iso-octane were also computed and correspond to the kinetic path analysis.
