Description

Italy has made an important effort on straight tube steam generators development. In the framework of this a 45 MW prototype has been fabricated, tested and examined. A repair and maintenance procedure has been set up for the prototype in order to be able to deal with a sodium-water reaction accident. A repair and maintenance procedure has been written for a commercial steam generator too. Additional work should be done for the inspection of the tube bundle, the localization of the faulty tube and the plugging procedure. (author)
