Description

This work was carried out as part of the instrumented fuel stringer programme in Civil Advanced Gas-cooled Reactors. The overall aim of the project was to assess the coolant temperature distribution in the CAGR fuel cluster on the basis of thermocouple measurements in the coolant downstream of the fuel exit. This was achieved by use of an air rig simulating an AGR channel and the subsequent development of a model was based on a diffusivity analysis. This paper describes points of general interest arising from this work. (author)
