Description

A full scale of dive line system of AP1000 is employed to study the drop performance. The effects of mass flux both in transverse and longitudinal directions and dislocation or deformation in the components of dive line system on the dropping time are experimental studied. The time-travel curve is obtained using the high-speed photography technology. The experiment results show that the mass flux in transverse direction affects the dropping time significantly while the effects of other factors are negligible. (authors)
