Valve testing for UK PWR safety applications
Description
The pressurized water reactor (PWR) Project Group of the Central Electricity Generating Board is currently building Sizewell B, the first Civil PWR plant in the United Kingdom (UK). The extensive program of valve testing carried out in support of the licensing and operation of the UK PWR was outlined in a paper to the 1988 Water Reactor Safety meeting. This paper is intended to provide a review of the progress made on this program and to discuss some of the findings which have a bearing on the Sizewell B safety case
