TELESCOPE sipping in PWRs

  • 1. Gemeinschaftskernkraftwerk Grohnde Emmerthal (Germany)
  • 2. ABB Atom Vaesteras (Sweden)

Description

Due to the experience accumulated at ABB Atom in the early seventies, the company could use the know-how and available data for further development work and in the nineties introduced an advanced burst can detection method, the TELESCOPE sipping. The device and the method were successfully tested in November 1996 in pilot tests performed at the Grohnde nuclear power plant using a number of suitable fuel assemblies. (orig./CB)

Abstract (German)

Aufgrund der gesammelten Erfahrungen mit Anfang der 70er Jahre liegen bei ABB Atom Kenntnisse vor, die in den 90er Jahren zur Einfuehrung einer verbesserten Lecksuchmethode fuer Brennelemente fuehrte, dem TELESCOPE Sipping. Diese Einrichtung wurde im November 1996 im Kernkraftwerk Grohnde in einem Pilotversuch an ausgewaehlten Brennelementen mit gutem Erfolg getestet. (orig.)
