This book introduces readers to gas flows and heat transfer in pebble bed reactor cores. It addresses fundamental issues regarding experimental and modeling methods for complex multiphase systems, as well as relevant applications and recent research advances. The numerical methods and experimental measurements/techniques used to solve pebble flows, as well as the content on radiation modeling for high-temperature pebble beds, will be of particular interest. This book is intended for a broad readership, including researchers and practitioners, and is sure to become a key reference resource for students and professionals alike. Introduction.- Experiments in pebble flows.- Experiments in pebble bed heat transfer.- Numerical Simulation and Analysis for pebble flows.- Numerical models for pebble bed heat transfer.- Applications: Two-region Pebble beds.- Applications: Pebble flow optimizations.- Applications: Complex pebble flows.- Future research issues and recommendations.
