Numerical Investigation on the Flow Characteristics in a 17 × 17 Full-Scale Fuel Assembly
In a previous study, several computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of fuel assembly thermal-hydraulic problems were presented that contained fewer fuel rods, such as 3 × 3 and 5 × 5, due to limited computer capacity. However, a typical
