This phenomenon is an extremely important consideration following shutdown of an operating nuclear reactor since r.

It should be noted that.since this DECAY HEAT is dependent upon the decay of fission products, the total amount of decay heat available will be a function of the power a

However, it should also greater total amount of decay heat.

be noted that the amount of decay heat will decrease exponentially after shutdown, following the decay rate of the fission products. A typical curve of decay heat versus time after shutdown of a previously operating reactor, assuming 7%

Mgure 2-44 Boiling Heat Transfer In practice, if the heat flux is increased, the transition from nucleate boiling to film boiling occurs suddenly and the temperature difference increases rapidly, as shown by the dashed line in Figure 2-44. The point just before transition from nucleate boiling to film l

boiling is called the point of departure from nucleate boiling, commonly written as DNB.

l The heat flux assocated with DNB is commonly called the critical heat fluz. In many,

applications, the critical heat Oux is an important parameter. For example, in a reactor, if the critical heat flux is exceeded and DNB occurs at any location in the core, the tempera-ture difference required to transfer the heat being produced from the surface of the fuel rod to the reactor coolant increases greatly. Since the reactor coolant temperature is fixed, this means that the temperature of the surface of the fuel rod increases greatly. If, as frequently is the case, the temperature increase associated with the transition from nucleate boiling to film boiling causes the fuel rod cladding to exceed its melting point, a failure will occur. Cladding failure resulting from DNB is called burnout and will be discussed further after discusamg reactor heat transfer.

2.38 COMBINED HEAT TRANSFER Many of the heat transfer processes encountered in nuclest power plants involve a combination of both conduction and convection. For example, heat transfer in a steam generator involves convection from the bulk of the reactor coolant to the steam generator 2-151 Op
