The improved induction heating technique for calandria tube rolled joint separation

  • 1. Ontario Hydro, Toronto, ON (Canada)

Description

The Fast Induction Heating technique was developed for the single fuel channel replacement program. This technique was successfully used at Pickering A and Bruce A stations to undo the rolled joints between calandria tubes and calandria tube inserts. The technique has been improved, making it simpler and faster. The improved equipment uses solid state technology instead of an oscillator tube. The improved technique is more attractive for both single and large scale fuel channel replacement. 5 refs., 5 figs
