摘要：Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become an effective method for researching two-phase flow in reactor systems. However, the uncertainty analysis of Computational fluid dynamics simulation is still immature. The effects of uncertainties from two-phase models and boundary conditions have been analyzed in our previous work. In this work, the uncertainties from a turbulence model on the prediction of subcooled boiling flow were analyzed with the DEBORA benchmark experiments by a deterministic sampling method. Seven parameters in the standard k-ε model, which interrelated momentum, energy, turbulent kinetic energy, and dissipation rate, were studied as uncertainty sources, including Cμ, Cμ,g, C1ε, C2ε, σk, σε, and Prt. Radial parameters were calculated to study the effects of uncertainties from the turbulence model. The contributions of each uncertainty source on void fraction and liquid temperature were also analyzed. It was found that the models can simulate subcooled boiling flow accurately and uncertainty analysis by deterministic sampling can give a reference interval to increase the reliability of results. The C2ε and C1ε, parameters in the production term and dissipation term of transport equations, dominate the radial distributions of void fraction and liquid temperature.
