Description

Innovative, compact, simple piping supports have been developed for ultra-high-temperature nuclear and nonnuclear piping systems that require a large degree of structural reliability. These supports, originally designed for the SP-100 Ground Engineering System (GES) Nuclear Assembly Test (NAT) power system, can be used in both thin and thick wall piping systems. This paper discusses the design of these piping supports and the supporting thermal and structural analyses
