Air Scaling and Modeling Studies for the 1/5-Scale Mark I Boiling Water Reactor Pressure Suppression Experiment.

摘要

Results of table-top model experiments performed to investigate pool dynamics effects due to a postulated loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) for the Peach Bottom Mark I boiling water reactor containment system guided subsequent conduct of the 1/5-scale torus experiment and provided new insight into the vertical load function (VLF). Pool dynamics results were qualitatively correct. Experiments with a 1/64-scale fully modeled drywell and torus showed that a 90exp 0torus sector was adequate to reveal three-dimensional effects;the 1/5-scale torus experiment confirmed this.
