A Novel Model for U-Tube Steam Generators for Pressurized Water Reactors
A novel model was proposed for U-Tube Steam Generators in Pressurized Water Reactors to be utilized in dynamics and control studies. The steam generator was divided into 14 nodes and investigated by applying mass and energy conservation equations in ...

Detailed Stress Analysis of SM-1 Steam Generator Tube Sheet
The detailed stress analysis of the SM-1 steam generator tube sheet showed it to be safe from strain cycling damage. However, the pressure stresses were greater than the yield strength during the hydrostatic test.

An Experimental Rig and Investigation of Steam Generator Tube Loading during Main Steam Line Break
Tubes in steam generators vibrate when subjected to cross-flow of secondary side coolant, particularly in the U-bend region. Such tube vibrations result in fretting wear at tube supports, reducing the margin of safety against failure.
