ADWallHeatTransferCoefficientMikityukMaterial
The material computes the convective heat transfer coefficient for liquid sodium in a rod bundle using the Mikityuk correlation.
Equation (10.133) from Todreas and Kazimi (2021) is used.
The Nusselt number is calculated as:
with Pe given by
where P/D is the pitch-to-diameter ratio, is the heat capacity, is the density, is the viscosity, and is the hydraulic diameter.
The Mikityuk correlation is valid for and . The convective heat transfer coefficient, , is calculated as:
where is the fluid thermal conductivity.
