Thermal Modelling of an AMTEC Recirculating Cell

Jeffries-Nakamura, B. / O'Connor, D. / Suitor, J. W. / Ryan, M. A. / Underwood, M. L. / Williams, R. M.

A modeling program was developed to determine the impact of various design parameters on the operation of an AMTEC system. Temperature profiles generated by the modeling program were compared to actual experimental data to verify the model accuracy. The model was then extended to predict the impact of device design on operational performance. The effect of heat loss from the liquid sodium supply end was studied for this paper.
