A method for simulating the flow of a fluid in a vessel of a nuclear reactor is provided. The nuclear reactor includes the vessel and a core inside the vessel, the core including nuclear fuel assemblies, each one extending in an axial direction, including nuclear fuel rods and a grid for maintaining the rods, and being spaced apart from another by a clearance between the grids in a transverse direction.;This method for simulating a fluid flow in the vessel of a nuclear reactor includes determining of head loss coefficients in the core, and computing the fluid pressure and speed component(s) in the core using the equation: ∇P=−K×V where P is the component of the fluid pressure, K is a matrix including the determined head loss coefficients, and V is a vector including the fluid speed component(s).;A transverse head loss coefficient in the assemblies is determined from a transverse Reynolds number, and an axial head loss coefficient in the clearance is from the dimension of the clearance in the transverse direction. |
