Abstract
The paper presents the results of sub-channel analysis of CANDU–SCWR based on a wide review of heat transfer correlations. According to comparison with experiment data at different heat flux, Bishop Correlation is selected in SUBCHAN code to analyze CANDU–SCWR fuel channel. By detailed calculation of 43 fuel rods fuel channel in CANDU–SCWR, the paper gets the conclusion that the mass flux redistribution and reduction of heat-transfer coefficient at supercritical condition caused by the steep change of coolant density will limit the power of fuel channel in CANDU–SCWR.
