A CFD analysis of blockage length on a partially blocked fuel rod

After a loss of coolant accident (LOCA), fuel rods may balloon. The swelling can partially block the flow channel, affecting the coolability during reflood phase. In order to analyze the influence of blockage length, using a radial blockage of 90%, varying just the blockage length, many steady state...
