Critical Heat Flux in Uniformly Heated Rod Bundle Under Wide Range of System Pressures

Abstract
An experimental study on critical heat flux (CHF) has been performed for water flow in a uniformly heated vertical 3 by 3 rod bundle under low flow and a wide range of pressure conditions. The objective of this study is to investigate the parametric trends of CHF with 3 by 3 rod bundle test section where three unheated rods exist. The general trends of the CHF are coincident with previous understandings. At low flow and system pressure above 3 MPa, some critical qualities are larger than 1.0 due to counter-current flow in test sections. Since there is a supply of water to the heated section from unheated section, the maximum CHFs at system pressure between 2 and 4 MPa are not shown.
