Study of a Square Single-Phase Natural Circulation Loop Using the Lattice Boltzmann Method

  • Johan Augusto Bocanegra,
  • Annalisa Marchitto and
  • Mario Misale

28 August 2023

Natural circulation loops are thermohydraulic circuits used to transport heat from a source to a sink in the absence of a pump, using the forces induced by the thermal expansion of a working fluid to circulate it. Natural circulation loops have a wid...
