3 NURETH-15 15th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal-Hydraulics

The 15th International Topical Meeting

on Nuclear Reactor Thermal-Hydraulics

Welcome to Pisa „ … vituperio de le genti del bel paese …‟ (Dante Alighieri, Inferno, 9th

row, ‘I traditori’, around 1320), place of

the 15th

International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal-Hydraulics, NURETH-15.

Pisa existed at least in V-VI century Before Christ and was inhabited by Etruscan. Then Romans came. During Middle Age, Pisa was

a self-governing Republic powerful on the Mediterranean sea and was one of the four „Sea Republics‟ together with Genoa, Venice

and Amalfi. In the old city of Acre, in Israel, we can still find the Pisa Quarter as Pisa had a base here during the Crusades. Pisa

suffered decadence near the end of the middle Ages, as the power of Lords (Signoria) grew in Florence. First (1405) Gabriello Maria

of Visconti family from Milan tried to sell the city to its enemies and he was chased by Pisa people, then, the following year, Gino

Capponi from Florence corrupted the „Capitano del Popolo‟ (the Chief in charge of Pisa) to open the city gates and let the Florentine

army enter. That was the end of Pisa independency. Sadly, Florence spent so much money to try to conquer Pisa that also it‟s

Republic ended, being dominated in the following years by the rich Medici family that took the power over the region.

Other than NURETH-15, Pisa has been the place in the last few decades for several Workshops in nuclear thermal-hydraulics under

the auspices of either the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), or the Organization for the Economic Development / Nuclear

Energy Agency (OECD/NEA). Furthermore, two topical conferences were hosted and attended by around 400 participants for each

conference:

“Specialists Meeting on Small Break LOCA Analyses in LWR”, June 23-27 1985;

“International Conference on New Trends in Nuclear System Thermo-hydraulics”, May 30 - June 2 1994.

The former Conference was in the wake of the Three Mile Island-2 event (TMI-2, 1979) and was mainly devoted to small break Loss

of Coolant Accident (SBLOCA) phenomena. Innovations in Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP) were also a focus for the

discussions during the Conference.

The topics of interest in the latter Conference were the Verification and Validation (V & V) of system thermal-hydraulics codes and

the uncertainty evaluation. Focus was given to the characterization of three-dimensional transient thermal-hydraulic phenomena.

NURETH-15 shall be seen as a follow-up of those conferences in Pisa. Focus of NURETH-15 papers is on subjects in relation to

which the bases were put during the previous events. Namely, phenomena modelling and experiments, V & V and uncertainty

methods are the bases for the Best Estimate Plus Uncertainty (BEPU) approach in licensing. Furthermore, the Computational Fluid

Dynamics (CFD) development and application constitute important topics for NURETH-15 which was not at a point of development

to be of main interest in 1985 or even in 1994.

It is my pleasure and honor to see all of you in Pisa for NURETH-15!

Francesco D’Auria

Welcome to NURETH-15


It is with great pleasure that we welcome all the participants to the 15th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal-

Hydraulics (NURETH-15) in Pisa, Tuscany, Italy.

NURETH is an important series of international topical meetings in nuclear reactor thermal-hydraulics and related areas such as nuclear

reactor safety. This is the only major conference series devoted solely to the advancement of knowledge in the nuclear reactor thermal -

hydraulics field. It covers all aspects of thermal-hydraulics assumed in the different types of nuclear reactors of current and future

generations. In particular, a specific emphasis has been placed on understanding fundamental thermal-hydraulics phenomena as well as

development and applications of new innovative technology in experimentation and computer simulation. NURETH provides very valuable

forum for specialists in nuclear thermal-hydraulics to exchange technical information, present recent research and technological findings,

review the state-of-the-art, and discuss the future directions and needs for further research and development of nuclear power plant and

installations design, analysis, and operation. Forums such as NURETH provide a global communication channel to enhance exchange of

ideas and information and encourage cross-fertilization of research and development efforts among all nuclear countries.

Since the first meeting in 1980, the Thermal-Hydraulics Division (THD) of American Nuclear Society (ANS) has sponsored the NURETH

meetings held in USA and co-sponsored when held outside the USA. A total of fourteen meetings have been held so far in: Saratoga Springs

(New York, USA, 1980), Santa Barbara (California, USA, 1983), Newport (Rhode Island, USA, 1985), Karlsruhe (Germany, 1989), Salt

Lake City (Utah, USA, 1992), Grenoble (France, 1993), Saratoga Springs (New York, USA, 1995), Kyoto (Japan, 1997), San Francisco

(California, USA, 1999), Seoul (Korea, 2003), Avignon (France, 2005), Pittsburgh (Pennsylvania, USA, 2007), Kanazawa(Japan, 2009) and

Toronto (Ontario, Canada, 2011).

The 15th meeting of NURETH in Pisa, Tuscany is organized by the Nuclear Research Group of San Piero a Grado (GRNSPG) of the

University of Pisa in cooperation with the ANS-THD, along with many co-sponsoring organizations from the Italian and the international

technical nuclear community. The meeting is also supported by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). On behalf of the Technical

Programme Committee, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the authors as well as all the participants who has come all the way to

Pisa in spite of the fact that most countries in the world are still struggling to recover from the second phase of the economic downturn.

The technical program consists of 439 papers which will be delivered in almost five full days starting from Monday (May 13, 2013) through

Friday afternoon (May 17, 2013).

For NURETH-15, there have been about 690 abstract submissions and more than 530 draft papers were submitted. All technical papers that

have been accepted for presentation were peer reviewed extensively by 2-4 reviewers on each paper, in the review period from February to

April 2013, including emergency review process for last minute submissions and also draft papers needing major modifications. In addition,

ten Plenary Sessions include 33 invited speakers and in these sessions invited lectures with papers are delivered by leading authorities, who

are professionals in their respective fields on cutting edge science of interest to the audience, from different continents in the world. This

large number of papers indicates the strong interest in NURETH series conferences. Due to the space limitations, there was a need to

introduce poster sessions besides oral presentations. This has taken place based on the request of the authors or on the established criteria,

which are used during draft paper review process. In addition, there are student papers which are presented in student sessions (both oral and

poster) and also provide a prominent position in the Conference to the students. For different categories of papers, there will be award

presentation to the selected papers and authors. NURETH-15 also gives us opportunity to identify the scientists who had major contributions

during the 33 years history of NURETH based on some stringent criteria. All the previous proceedings have been examined in detail and 27

individuals who fulfil these criteria were identified. They receive NURETH Fellow status during NURETH-15, with the approval of ANS-

THD. I hope that this aspect continues in the next NURETH meetings as tradition. Total of about 18 pre- and post-conference professional

development workshops have been also organized. The proceedings for full-length papers are published on a USB memory stick with

complementary bound volumes of abstracts and invited lectures, separately. Publication of selected papers in archival journals will also be

arranged.

Here, I would like to thank all the reviewers, Session organizers, Special Topics organizers, Session Chairs/Co-Chairs, Invited lecturers and

Workshop Organizers for their time and effort in maintaining the high quality of the NURETH technical program. I would also like to

express my sincere thanks to the members of Local Organizing Committee (LOC), Technical Program Committee (TPC) and the Conference

Chairs, especially to Prof. Francesco D‟Auria for his devoted work and ideas. I would like to mention the long hours devoted by the staff and

support members of LOC with special emphasize. Last but not least, I am greatly indebted to Dr. Alessandro Petruzzi of GRNSPG of the

University of Pisa and Chairman of LOC, who devoted long hours working diligently and tirelessly to ensure that everything was properly

prepared, including technical program, pre- and post-conference workshops, publications, conference registration, hotel arrangements, and

special events.

Finally, I sincerely hope all the participants will find the meeting very fruitful and productive. I wish all very enjoyable stay in the city of

Leaning Tower Pisa, which has also elite universities of Italian State, and beautiful and historical Tuscany surroundings.

When we knew that we were given by the American Nuclear Society Thermal Hydraulic Division (ANS-THD) the organization of

NURETH-15 in Pisa, we immediately understood that we were about to face a most challenging task, and we felt both excited and

ready to prepare ourselves for the coming challenge. But we did not know that it would be even more challenging than we initially

expected!

Well, it is a matter of “scale”: Pisa is a town not quite used to absorbing the impact of such grand events. Irrespective of that we were

determined to overcome the challenges which were on our way.

However, we could not miss the challenge, we could not miss the opportunity to host and meet here, in Pisa, a good portion of that

scientific and research community to which we are proud to belong and with which we want to share the love for our homeland.

In order to further improve the offer, from both the technical and the social points of view, we are proposing several “extras”, such as

poster sessions, dedicated student sessions, technical tours, conference tours, pre- and post-conference workshops, a rich program of

social events etc. This noticeably increased the organizational and managerial effort, and required the involvement of many of our

resources, but we hope it can make this experience in Pisa even more interesting and pleasant for the NURETH-15 Participants.

The Conference is about to start, and we deeply hope to meet the expectations, to satisfy all the needs and to ensure the high quality

level that NURETH-15 participants deserve. We just know that we did our best, with enthusiasm and gratitude, for we know we have

been allowed a big chance and a great honor.

Message from the Local Organizer


NURETH History

Pisa, Tuscany, Italy Pisa is a city in Tuscany, Central Italy, on the right bank of the

mouth of the River Arno on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the

capital city of the Province of Pisa. The city of over 88,332

residents (around 200,000 with the metropolitan area) contains

more than twenty historical monuments, such as the famous

Leaning Tower (the bell tower of the city's cathedral),

churches, several palaces and various bridges across the River

Arno.

The city is also home of the University of Pisa, which has a

history going back to the 12th century and also has the mythic

Napoleonic Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa and Sant'Anna

School of Advanced Studies as the best Superior Graduate

Schools in Italy.

Pisa, a city with ancient origins (8-7th century BC), became a

municipium after 89 BC and, then, around 30 BC, a Roman

colony (Obsequens lulia Pisana). Its success was due both to

its fortunate location at the center of a network of sea, river

and land routes and to the availability in the city of a wide

range of agricultural products, as well as wood and stone

building materials from its inland territories which also aided

in the construction of important manufacturing structures.

Climate The climate is normally very pleasant in Pisa this season of

the year (min. 11°C, max 22°C).

Currency Italian currency is the Euro (EUR; symbol €), which is divided

into 100 cents. Notes are in denominations of €500, 200, 100,

50, 20, 10 and 5. Coins are in denominations of €2 and 1, and

50, 20, 10, 5, 2 and 1 cents.

Electricity Electricity in Italy, as in the rest of Europe, comes out of the

wall socket at 220 volts alternating at a 50 cycles per second.

To use small electrical appliances, you may need a plug

adapter or power converter.

Entry Formalities (Passport, Visa and Invitation) To enter Italy, a passport valid for at least six months beyond

the length of stay is required by all non-EU nationals. EU

citizens should hold a valid national ID card. The invitation

letter is intended to help potential attendees obtain travel funds

or a visa, and does not constitute any financial commitment on

the part of the conference.

First Aid and Emergency In the event of a medical emergency, please go directly to the

Registration desk. The medical emergency number in Italy is

118. The emergency Police number is 113.

Health Insurance It is recommended that participants arrange their own health

and accident coverage before leaving home through a local

travel agent or medical association.

Liability The NURETH-15 registration fees DO NOT include

provisions for the insurance of participants against personal

injuries, sickness and theft or property damage. This also

applies to any event held during the conference period.

Participants and accompanying persons are advised to arrange

for insurance they consider necessary. Neither the

NURETH-15 Organizing Committee, nor its sponsors nor

committee members assume any responsibility for loss, injury

or damage to persons or belongings, however caused.

Lost and Found Lost and found articles may be taken to the conference

Registration Desk. Any items left at the Registration Desk

upon completion of the conference, will be stored by

NURETH Organizing Committee.

Meals and Refreshments Lunch will be served in Pisa Congress Palace (Catering Area)

every day from Monday to Friday. Coffee breaks will also be

served in Pisa Congress Palace. Dinners with typical Italian

foods will be organized during the conference in exclusive

Tuscany places:

The 15th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal-Hydraulics (NURETH-15) is held under the

co-sponsorship of the Nuclear Research Group of San Piero a Grado (GRNSPG) of the University of Pisa (UNIPI), the

Thermalhydraulics Division of the American Nuclear Society (ANS) and the International Atomic Energy Agency

(IAEA).

Organization by The 15th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal-Hydraulics (NURETH-15) is co-organized by the

Nuclear Research Group of San Piero a Grado (GRNSPG) of the University of Pisa (UNIPI), the Nuclear and INdustrial

Engineering (NINE) and the Thermalhydraulics Division of the American Nuclear Society (ANS).

Host Institutions


CEA – Stand Exhibitor

The French Alternative Energies and Atomic

Energy Commission (CEA) is a public

technological research organization working in

four main areas: low-carbon energies, defense and

security, information and health technologies, and

large research facilities.

Within the CEA, the Nuclear Energy Division

(DEN) provides the French government and

industry with technical expertise and innovations

for nuclear energy producing systems. With its

4,500 researchers and employees, the DEN

investigates:

- future nuclear systems: Generation-4 reactors

and their fuel cycle;

- optimization of the existing nuclear industry;

- development and operation of large-scale

experimentation and simulation tools

The DEN is developing software platforms and

calculation codes in all the main fields of nuclear

energy (neutronics, thermalhydraulics, mechanics,

thermics, chemistry and materials) to model all the

complex phenomena occurring in a reactor. Most

of these platforms allow multiscale modeling from

atomic scale to the complete system. Most of the

codes developed by the DEN are used by the

French nuclear industry. They have been

distributed to European R&D organizations under

a large number of licensing agreements.

SIET – Stand Exhibitor

SIET, www.siet.it, is a Research / Testing Company whose main activities concern the thermal-hydraulic experimentation

on both Nuclear Power Plants components and systems. SIET facilities are located in Piacenza, Italy.

Most of the SIET tests are performed at actual thermodynamic conditions with respect to the reference plants. They cover

a pretty large set of applications, as for instance:

- integral tests on LWR simulators, including Reactor Coolant Systems and Containment;

- experimental qualification of Innovative Passive Safety Systems for ALWR;

performance tests on NPP components as LWR reactor fuel clusters, PWR SG, Valves, Heat Exchangers, Steam

Injectors, Pumps and Separators.

Exhibitors


ENEL – Gold Sponsor

Within the Enel Engineering & Research Division, the Nuclear Technical Area (ATN) develops

studies and design solutions of nuclear power plant projects and specialized engineering services to

the whole Enel Group.

UJV - Gold Sponsor

The UJV Rez, a. s. is a reputable,

renowned scientific-research and

engineering company dedicated to nuclear

technologies and their application in

various fields. A key field of UJV Rez‟s

interest is energy where special attention is

given to the development of long-term

sustainable energy with minimum

environmental impact.

CIRTEN

Interuniversity Consortium

for Technological

Nuclear Research

The CIRTEN Consortium was

constituted in 1994 by

Polytechnics of Milan and Turin

and the Universities of Padova,

Palermo, Pisa and Rome, and joined in 2009 by the

University of Bologna with the aim to promote the

scientific and technological research and co-ordinate

the Universities with national and international

Research Institutions and Industries.

The Research groups' experience, supported by

advanced analytical, numerical and experimental tools,

allow CIRTEN to perform, in particular:

- Complex systems analyses;

- Multi-phase/dimensions TH calculations;

- Thermal and structural analyses on SSCs;

- Analyses of multiplying systems, shieldings and

radioprotection;

- Safety analysis,

- PRA;

- Evaluations of environmental impact,

- Etc.
