RELAP5 model for the INPP


3.3 HEAT STRUCTURES

 

(1351) IRREVERSIBLE LOSSES (LHS)

 

RELAP5 does not include heat energy from terms for the dissipation of fluids due to wall friction (Ref. [ 1 ]). This will be a small amount of energy compared to this fission power, however, during full-flow conditions after scram, the dissipative heat energy can be important relative to the core decay heat energy. The energy that is dissipated around the circulation loop is evaluated by determining the energy added to the fluid in the MCPs.

This energy is added to the fluid using the direct heating multiplier to the boundary fluid from heat structures. To accomplish this, small heat structures are added to the model. The heat structures are attached to the MCP fluid volumes, and permit energy to be directly added to the fluid. Since the sole purpose of these heat structures is to add energy to the fluid, their physical characteristics are unimportant. They are specified arbitrarily small to eliminate any adverse effects. The internal heat generation source is specified to be approximately zero (the code requires a non-zero entry). All the energy specified in the pump shaft power control variables specified to be added directly to the adjacent fluid volume without interacting with the heat structure.
