Report
UPTF test results--first three separate effects tests
Description
The first separate effect tests were run in the Upper Plenum Test Facility - a 1:1 representation of a PWR primary system. These tests were focusing the simultaneous steam up - and water down flow phenomena at the upper tie plate, the fluid-fluid mixing in the cold leg and downcomer and the counter-current flow conditions of steam and saturated water in a PWR hot leg
