Accura modling of hs PWRs is complicad, spcially in high ful rod o shll diamr raios, and for h larg numbr of ful rods. Th simpls mhod, which is probably mos commonly usd, is modlling ha ransfr by using som mpirical corrlaions. Du o h mpirical naur, his approach migh bcom highly inaccura. This is bcaus hos corrlaions canno accoun for h complx naur of h fluid dynamics and h gomry for spcific siuaion. Consqunly, whil i is prfrabl for iniial sima in dsign, his mpirical approach migh no b sufficin for acquiring an accura nowldg of h ha ransfr. Th mos xpnsiv and im-consuming mhod is obviously xprimnal sudy. Howvr, hr ar major difficulis inhrn in his approach including obaining mpraur profils (spcially for h insid ful rods). Forunaly, wih nw mhods such as "Compuaional Fluid Dynamics", (CFD) i is possibl o g a daild viw of h fluid flow and ha ransfr phnomna in h vssl sid of h racors which rcnly is bcoming of incrasing inrs. This migh b bcaus h hr-dimnsional cs in h flows disribuion canno b prdicd wll by on dimnsional sysm cods [5]. Alhough CFD is a rlaivly young ool in h fild of nuclar nginring; i is applid mos commonly in mixing chnology. Th rcn dvlopmns of h incorporaion of chmical and nuclar racion in h major CFD pacags opnd up a larg ara of applicaion of CFD in racor nginring [6]. In gnral, CFD involvs numrically solving consrvaion quaions for mass, momnum and nrgy in flow gomry of inrs, oghr wih addiional ss of quaions rflcing h problm a hand. This papr a firs prsns h dscripion of a mahmaical modl for h shll sid of h racor (whr h coolan mixing xis), which is solvd numrically by ANSYS CFX 5.7.1, spcific o ypical VVER-1000 racors. Nx, h approach o urbulnc modlling and h numrical mhod implmnd in CFX will b dscribd. Thn, spcificaion of h numrical simulaion in CFX will b givn and h rsuls will hn b prsnd and discussd. For his modl, w us an Inl cor dual procssor of 4.8 GHz and GB RAM. Tss wih CFX hav shown ha his is sufficin for h ramn of singl phas flows wih sandard -ε urbulnc modl using a 3 grid of unsrucurd clls. For grid gnraion h ool ICEM CFD is usd ha allows h ramn of clls. Nvrhlss, h rspons im for a singl grid manipulaion acion for such a cas ofn rachs 7 hours. CFX allows h ramn of compuaional domains whos boundary nods do no nd o mach xacly. For sing and handling such an approach is advisabl and in h prsn cas vn ncssary bcaus h compl grid canno b handld as on par du o limiaions of h grid gnraion procssing. Som ohr compuaional limis ar givn by h pr-procssing of CFX 5, whr h compuaional domains and h flow physics ar dfind [7]. 1. Mahmaical Modl Marials and Mhods Th saring poin for modlling h fluid flow in h vssl sid of h racor is h s of h fundamnal quaions ha can b found in many wll nown xboos: [8] Coninuiy quaion: 1 D r +Ñ. v = 0. (1) r D Momnum quaion: Dv r =-Ñ. ω+ r g. () D Enrgy quaion: DE r =Ñ. ( ωä v) +Ñ. ( lñ T ) + r vg. + r q, (3) D whr and ω =- pi+ lñ. v+ mτ, (4) τ =Ñ v+ ( Ñv ) T, (5) 1 E = + vv.. (6) Th scond rm in E is h inic nrgy pr uni mass of a marial paricl. Inspcion of hs quaions rvals h bacground for a fw of h common racor modl assumpions. Firs, hs sysms ar low vlociy flows and h fluid mass dnsiy, r can b rad as (incomprssibl flow) uniform in h flow fild so ha h rms conaining h im or spaial drivaiv of r can b nglcd. Th mass dnsiy is no dpndn on h prssur changs du o h flow, and h viscous dissipaion and prssur 74

Th govrning quaions for low Mach numbr flow drivd basd on h dimnsional analysis can hn b xprssd as: ( r ) Ñ. v = 0, (7) ( r v) ( r ) +Ñ. vä v = Ñ. ω+ rg, (8) ( re ) +Ñ. ( re v ) ( l T ) =Ñ. Ñ + r q. (9) Modlling urbuln flows rang from "Dirc Numrical Simulaion", (DNS) o h "Rynolds Avragd Navir-Sos", (RANS) approach. Whn RANS approach is applid o h sandard quaions, h rsul is: ( r ) Ñ. v = 0, (10) ( r v) ' '.( r r ) +Ñ vä v+ v Äv =Ñ. ω+ S M, (11) ' ' ( re ) +Ñ.( re + r E o ) whr and v v ( l T ). SE =Ñ Ñ +, (1) 1 E = + v +, (13) 1 ' = ( v ), (14) T ω =- p I+ m( Ñ v+ ( Ñv ) ). (15) Th nonlinar rms involvd h urbuln flucuaions ar calld h Rynolds srss r v ' Ä v ' and h Rynolds flux r v ' E. Ths rms hav o b modlld o nabl soluion of h Navir-Sos quaions. Thr ar many urbulnc modls for his purpos including zro quaion modl, - modl, RNG - modl and diffrnial Rynolds Srss modl [9-11]. Only sandard - modl, which is of ddy viscosiy modl yp, was usd for h CFD simulaion. As a rsul of urbulnc, in summary, h mahmaical modl o b solvd for h shll sid of h racor consiss of h following quaions: Coninuiy quaion: ( r ) Ñ. v = 0. (16) Momnum consrvaion: whr ( rv) ( rv v) +Ñ.

For ral flows, a numrical approach mus b adopd whrby a discrizaion mhod involvs rplacing h Navir- Sos quaions by hir algbraic approximaions, which can hn b solvd using a numrical mhod. Th CFD approach uss Navir-Sos quaions and nrgy balancs ovr conrol volums, small volums wihin h gomry a a dfind locaion rprsning h racor inrnals.

Th CFX sofwar is basd on a "Fini Volum", (FV) approach, whr h soluion domain i.. h fluid domain is subdividd ino a fini numbr of small "Conrol Volums", (CVs) by mshing.
