Description

In a fast reactor using sodium as a coolant, a free surface exists in the upper plenum of the reactor vessel where the sodium coolant contacts with a cover gas. Fluctuation of this free surface causes two important phenomena, which are a thermal striping on a vessel wall and a gas entrainment at a free surface. An experimental study has been performed to investigate the frequency of a free surface fluctuation in a vessel. There are two dominant frequency regions which are generated by a standing wave and a jet. In this paper, the frequency of a standing wave is studied as a function of the vessel diameters
