  4. φ = 0 Deg. φ t φ = 0 Deg. φ r ri H h(φ) Tb Solid (k) h(φ) Swirl Tape Swirl Single-Phase Convection or Two-Phase Water Flow Boiling (One Possibility For ITER) w One Possibility (Base-Line Model) for PFC Monoblock High Heat Flux Removal (HHFR) for ITER. Another Possibility Uses a Hypervapotron Rather Than the Circular Flow Channel with a Twisted Tape. For DEMO, High Velocity Helium Gas and/or a Liquid Metal (e.g., Jet Impingement) Will be Coolant Candidates Rather Than Water.

  6. HIGH HEAT FLUX PEAKING FACTORS AND ENHANCEMENT BACKGROUND (continued)

  7. HIGH HEAT FLUX PEAKING FACTORS AND ENHANCEMENT BACKGROUND (continued) To this Presenter’s Knowledge, the PF Correlation by Boscary, Febre, and Schlosser (Int. J.H.M. Trans., 42, 1999) Appears to be the Only One in the Technical Literature. However, the Correlation was Applied Only to Glidcop A1-25 and Had No Thermophysical or Thermal-Hydraulic Parameter Dependence for < Critical Heat Flux (CHF) but Was Dependent on: (1) w/ri (2.66 < w/ri < 3.4), and (2) t/ri (0.16 < t/ri < 0.6).

  8. HIGH HEAT FLUX PEAKING FACTORS AND ENHANCEMENT BACKGROUND (continued) • Federici and Raffray (J. Nucl. Mats., 244, 1997) Evaluated PF in Copper Monoblocks With and Without 316 Stainless Steel Inserts. • Later, Raffray et al. (Fusion Engineering and Design, 45, 1999) Noted a Future Need to Better Assess PFs. PFs were Presented as Functions of t & w for a CFC Monoblock with a CuCrZr Tube Insert.

  9. HIGH HEAT FLUX PEAKING FACTORS AND ENHANCEMENT BACKGROUND (continued) PASSIVE HIGH HEAT FLUX ENHANCEMENT • In the 2008 Int. HHFC Workshop at UCSD, Escourbiac Noted That Enhancement is Possible When Defects are Located at  = 0 degrees. • In 1994, Boyd (Fusion Technology, 25) Noted Enhancement is Possible for the Following Design Configurations:

Greater Than 98% Accurate for Predicting PF and Peak Inside Flow Channel Temperature. • Simulation Model Appears to be Applicable to Different • Monoblock Geometries, • Monoblock Materials, • Coolants, and • Coolant Flow Regimes. • PF = f(t, w, H, ri, Bi), φ = 0 Deg. φ t φ = 0 Deg. φ r ri H h(φ) Tb Solid (k) h(φ) Swirl Tape w Plane of Symmetry Note: Another Possibility for HHFR is the Hypervapotron, and it will be Added to this Work.

  14. HIGH HEAT FLUX PEAKING FACTORS AND ENHANCEMENT Boscary.J, Fabre. J, Schlosser J., “Critical Heat Flux of Water Subccoled Flow in One Side Heated Swirl Tubes” (Int. J.H.M. Trans., 42, 1999).

  15. HIGH HEAT FLUX PEAKING FACTORS AND ENHANCEMENT CONCLUSIONS A Conjugate Heat Transfer, High Heat Flux Simulation Methodology has Been Developed Which Accurately Predicts the Flow Channel: (1) Radial Heat Flux PF to Within Less Than 2% Inaccuracy, and (2) to Within Less Than 1%. Work is Proceeding to Extend This Simulation to PF and Correlations Which Include the Basic Monoblock Geometry, Fluid, and Thermal-Physical Parameters.
