APPROXIMATED CALCULATION METHODS OF UNSTEADY TEMPERATURE FIELD IN A LIGHT WATER REACTOR FUEL ROD

Abstract

Three approximated methods of solving a problem of one-dimensional unsteady heat conduction for cylindrical coordinates are presented. A fuel rod of a pressurized light water reactor is tiken into account with regard to the change of fuel pronerties with temperature. Boundary conditions of the third kind are assumed. A radial distribution of temperature for a step change of heat transfer coefficient is obtained.
