Abstract
Due to the similarity between the physical properties of seawater and freshwater, most scholars believe that the condensation oscillation characteristics of steam-seawater low-velocity jet are the same as those of steam-freshwater low-velocity jet, which leads to a lack of accurate understanding of the oscillation characteristics of steam-seawater jet. To explore the oscillation characteristics of steam-seawater low-velocity jet, a high-speed cameraand two high-frequency dynamic pressure sensorswere carried out to carry out a comparative study experiment between the steam-seawater low-velocity jet and the steam-freshwater low-velocity jet. Through experimental comparative analysis, it is found that the steam-seawater low-velocity jet and the steam-freshwater low-velocity jet have both similarities and obvious differences in phase interface structure, pressure oscillation intensity, pressure oscillation amplitude, and pressure oscillation spectrum. In particular, the amplitude of pressure oscillations in the pool is much smaller for steam-seawater low-velocity jet than for steam-freshwater low-velocity jet at higher water temperatures. The results of this study are helpful for understanding and mastering the condensation oscillation characteristics of steam-seawater low-velocity jet.
期刊介绍:
Progress in Nuclear Energy is an international review journal covering all aspects of nuclear science and engineering. In keeping with the maturity of nuclear power, articles on safety, siting and environmental problems are encouraged, as are those associated with economics and fuel management. However, basic physics and engineering will remain an important aspect of the editorial policy. Articles published are either of a review nature or present new material in more depth. They are aimed at researchers and technically-oriented managers working in the nuclear energy field.
Please note the following:
1) PNE seeks high quality research papers which are medium to long in length. Short research papers should be submitted to the journal Annals in Nuclear Energy.
2) PNE reserves the right to reject papers which are based solely on routine application of computer codes used to produce reactor designs or explain existing reactor phenomena. Such papers, although worthy, are best left as laboratory reports whereas Progress in Nuclear Energy seeks papers of originality, which are archival in nature, in the fields of mathematical and experimental nuclear technology, including fission, fusion (blanket physics, radiation damage), safety, materials aspects, economics, etc.
3) Review papers, which may occasionally be invited, are particularly sought by the journal in these fields.
