Abstract

Accurate modeling of thermal-hydraulic transients in a joint + conductor system, e.g., in the analysis of the test program of the ITER Model Coils (CSMC and TFMC) requires a major extension of existing codes. The two-fluid MITHRANDIR code has been upgraded accordingly to version 2.1 and it can now deal with variable geometry and materials along the hydraulic path. A limited validation of the extended quasi one-dimensional model is presented against data we obtained in dedicated thermal-hydraulic tests on the Full Size Joint Sample (FSJS). Taking into account experimental uncertainties the agreement between prediction and measurement can be considered good.

Analytic geometry

In mathematics, analytic geometry, also known as coordinate geometry or Cartesian geometry, is the study of geometry using a coordinate system. This contrasts with synthetic geometry. Analytic geometry is used in physics and engineering, and also in aviation, rocketry, space science, and spaceflight. It is the foundation of most modern fields of geometry, including algebraic, differential, discrete and computational geometry. Usually the Cartesian coordinate system is applied to manipulate equations for planes, straight lines, and circles, often in two and sometimes three dimensions.

Algebraic geometry

Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics which classically studies zeros of multivariate polynomials. Modern algebraic geometry is based on the use of abstract algebraic techniques, mainly from commutative algebra, for solving geometrical problems about these sets of zeros. The fundamental objects of study in algebraic geometry are algebraic varieties, which are geometric manifestations of solutions of systems of polynomial equations.

Differential geometry

Differential geometry is a mathematical discipline that studies the geometry of smooth shapes and smooth spaces, otherwise known as smooth manifolds. It uses the techniques of differential calculus, integral calculus, linear algebra and multilinear algebra. The field has its origins in the study of spherical geometry as far back as antiquity. It also relates to astronomy, the geodesy of the Earth, and later the study of hyperbolic geometry by Lobachevsky.
