Numerical and experimental investigation of the water flow through PWR spacer grids

Spacer grids are one of main components of a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) fuel assembly. They are able to improve heat transfer from rod bundles to the water flow by increasing turbulence and mixture of this flow. On the other hand the pressure drop increases because spacer grids. Experimental an...
