Abstract
⺠We study thermal hydraulic design of main vessel cooling system of fast reactors. ⺠A CFD based approach is proposed for determination of coolant flow rate. ⺠Effect of cooling system ovality on temperature asymmetry is quantified. ⺠Suitable flow distribution device is identified to achieve acceptable flow field. ⺠To compare efficacy of various devices, a flow mal-distribution index is defined.
