Thermal Mixing of Liquid Metal Coolant in an Annular Channel Available to Purchase

Results of experimental studies of mixing of liquids with different temperatures are presented. Experiments were performed in a T-junction connected to an annular channel. Rose’s metal was used as the test liquid. The test section was made of thin wall stainless tubes. The distribution of wall temperatures was measured using a high speed infrared camera. Experiments were performed in transient regimes.

Results obtained provide experimental data necessary for validation of thermal hydraulic codes for heavy liquid metals.
