Taken the steam generator of nuclear power plant as the prototype
the vapor-liquid two-phase flow and the boiling heat transfer were simulated by two-fluid model. The coupled flow and heat transfer process between the fluid of the primary and secondary sides and the heat transfer tubes with support plates was numerically simulated using CFX software. Based on the flow and heat transfer calculation
the pressure of fluid in the primary and secondary sides was extracted. The pressure load was transferred to the structure model in Workbench. And the structural stress of tube was calculated. The fluid-structure interaction results show that there is an abrupt increase in secondary velocity at the positions of support plates. The fluid pressure loss of secondary side increases because of the increase of fluid turbulence dissipation. The pressure stress of the heat transfer tube depends on the pressure difference between the primary side and the secondary side. The overall average of the pressure stress is about 58 MPa
which is consistent with the actual measured parameter.
