Description

KAERI has performed a series of steam condensation tests to assess the performance of a unit cell sparger that will be used in the APR1400 reactor. Unit cell sparger (I-type sparger) and simplified I-type sparger were used for the steam condensation tests to study the characteristics of the condensation phenomena due to multi-hole spargers. And the major test parameters were the steam mass flow rate and water temperature in the tank. This paper presents an overview of the local temperature distribution near the sparger discharge holes and the thermal mixing phenomena induced by a steam discharge and condensation in a cylindrical tank
