Fluid-Structure Interaction in a 3-by-3 Reduced-Scale Fuel Assembly Network
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2010 We present experimental results on 9 reduced-scale fuel assemblies arranged in a network of 3 by 3, subjected to an axial flow. The objective is to analyse the fluid force induced by the motion of the central fuel assembly on the others fuel assemblies ...
