Modelling the dynamical behaviour of nuclear reactor fuel assemblies [PDF]
Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1985 Abstract The computation of the motion of fuel rods in a nuclear reactor core is generally difficult because the number of elements is very large. This paper is devoted to an homogenization process likening the fluid-tube-spacer system to an equivalent homogeneous medium for which the constitutive laws are derived.
