Journal ArticleDOI
A review of correlations to model the packing structure and effective thermal conductivity in packed beds of mono-sized spherical particles
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the literature describing the packing structure and effective thermal conductivity of randomly packed beds consisting of mono-sized particles is presented, with particular attention paid to the packing structures (porosity, coordination number, and contact angles) and heat transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-sphere Unit Cell model to calculate the effective thermal conductivity in packed pebble beds of mono-sized spheres
TL;DR: In this article, North-West University as well as PBMR (Pty) Ltd. and M-Tech Industrial (M-tech industrial) in South Africa were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Separate effects tests to determine the effective thermal conductivity in the PBMR HTTU test facility
TL;DR: The PBMR company developed the HTTU non-nuclear test facility in cooperation with M-Tech Industrial (Pty) Ltd. and the North-West University in South Africa to conduct comprehensive separate effects tests as well as integrated effects tests to study the different thermal-fluid phenomena as mentioned in this paper.
