Work Plan for Steam Generator Leak Detector Tests In CCTL

摘要

This work plan outlines a test program on devices for the detection of water to sodium leaks in an LMFBR steam generator, to be carried out in the Core Component Test Loop (CCTL) at the Argonne National Laboratory. The objective of these tests is to develop the data on the performance characteristics of leak detectors which will be applicable to the design of reliable leak detection systems for large scale LMFBR plants, with particular attention to the needs and requirements of the Demonstration Plants. In doing this, water will be injected into sodium in the CCTL in controlled quantities and at rates which it is considered necessary to detect in LMFBR steam generators.
