Research on three-dimensional numerical simulation of siphon wells in nuclear power plants
This study aimed at the foam problem of siphon well drainage in Binhai Nuclear Power Plant,and carried out numerical simulation analysis based on VOF model using CFD calcu-lation software.A three-dimensional numerical simulation was conducted on the internal flow field of the WES practical weir siphon well commonly used in nuclear power projects.The distribution of gas-liquid two-phase flow in the siphon well at different water levels was calculated,and the phenomena of water drop and water jump aeration in the siphon well were analyzed,providing ref-erence for the design of siphon wells in nuclear power plants.
