Abstract:
Three dimensional temperature field and helium flow field of TBM are simulated using the general purpose computational fluid dynamics(CFD) code FLUENT.The temperature distribution of Be Armor,Be Pebble Bed,Li
4SiO
4 Pebble Bed,Structure Material of TBM,and helium flow field in the cooling pipe are presented.The research indicates that the work temperature of each material is under the material temperature allowed except some places where high temperature should be excluded in the design.The re-sults will provide references for further optimized thermal hydraulic design of ITER China TBM.
