Additional pool-swell experiments on a 1/11.7-scale Mark I pressure-suppression model. Final report
Description
The dynamic response of a Mark I pressure-suppression system during the early air-discharging phase of a postulated loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) was studied by means of scale model experiments. The results reported here were performed since the publication of Three Dimensional Pool Swell Modeling of a Mark I Suppression System, EPRI Report NP-906. Additional tests included assessing the effect of vent resistance placement, determining the equality of downcomer pressures, and a number of tests performed to support parallel analytical efforts
