In an earlier report, the problems associated with the prediction of the critical discharge rates of steam-water mixtures were discussed in detail. That report also gave the results of an experimental investigation of critical flows from long flow passages performed at low pressures. That investigation was later extended to consider short tubes, nozzles, and orifice flow configurations. The present work was undertaken to experimentally investigate the critical discharge phenomenon at higher pressures and to use the data gathered to critically evaluate the various proposed critical flow models. The purpose of this interim report is to describe in detail the apparatus assembled for this investigation and to report preliminary findings regarding the critical discharge rates from a 0.5-inch diameter flow passage.

This book captures the principles of safety evaluation as practiced in the regulated light-water reactor nuclear industry, as established and stabilized over the last 30 years. It is expected to serve both the current industry and those planning for the future. The work's coverage of the subject matter is the broadest to date, including not only the common topics of modeling and simulation, but also methods supporting the basis for the underlying assumptions, the extension to radiological safety, what to expect in a licensing review, historical perspectives and the implication for new designs.This text is an essential resource for practitioners and students, on the current best-practices in nuclear power plant safety and their basis. Contributors of this work are subject matter experts in their specialties, much of which was nurtured and inspired by Prof. Larry Hochreiter, a prominent nuclear safety pioneer.Related Link(s)
