Development of stabilizers for steam generator tube repair
Description
Fluidelastic stability, turbulence-induced and vortex-induced vibration analysis of different types of stabilizers for repairing steam generator tubes are presented. The performances of the different designs are compared with that of a common basis - the virgin tube. It was found that in addition to permitting the stabilized tubes to remain in operation, the sleeve has the additional merit of being the best performer of all the designs. In addition, it is adaptable to remote installation. (orig.)
