title: Computational and experimental justification for increasing the performance of the regenerative heat exchanger in the steam generator blowdown system of the AES-2006 project (RU V-392M)
abstract: The article discusses the design and operation modes of the regenerative heat exchanger (RHE) in the steam generator (SG) blowdown and drainage system (LCQ) at Novovoronezh NPP-II 1 and 2 (Project AES-2006). The results of mathematical modeling of the RHE operating modes are presented in order to identify the causes of its low efficiency. Based on the results of the commissioning of the SG blowdown and drainage system at NvNPP-II 1, as well as the thermohydraulic calculations of the RHE operatin
