Numerical Simulations on Transient Conjugated Heat Transfer within IFMIF High Flux Test Module

Transient numerical simulations were carried out for the helium cooled High Flux Test Module (HFTM) during start-up, shut-down, loss-of-coolant and temporary beam-off periods on a quarter-rig model. The transient responses of the specimen temperature with the changing operation conditions are the main outcome of the simulations. The results serve as reference for the design of HFTM and remote handling strategy. The commercial numerical codes CFX 12.0 and Star-CD 4.10 were used. Several turbulence models have been tested against annular channel experiments (ITHEX), including the k-ε, SST & Baseline Reynolds stress models of CFX and high & low Reynolds number k-ε Models and k-ω SST model of Star-CD. The heat transfer characteristics for various coolant flows were discussed.
