Investigation on reverse flow characteristics in U-tubes under two-phase natural circulation
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020 The vertically inverted U-tube steam generator (UTSG) is widely used in the pressurized water reactor (PWR). The reverse flow behavior generally exists in some U-tubes of a steam generator (SG) under both single- and two-phase natural circulations (NCs).

Steam generator tube denting simulation testing. [PWR] [PDF]
, 1978 Tube denting has been reported in steam generators in a number of commercial nuclear power plants in recent years. In order to aid in understanding of the mechanism leading to tube denting in the steam generators, a Bettis laboratory test program was initiated to attempt to reproduce tube denting and to investigate the effects of chemistry, design, and
