1/20 scale model pump test program: preliminary test plan
Description
This report describes the pump two-phase performance test program for Task A of the EPRI/Creare Light Water Reactor Safety Research Program. The report describes the test program, the logic behind its development and discusses the instrumentation requirements and approach that will be used in making two-phase measurements. The test program has been structured to emphasize the need for the study and definition of flow regime structure at the pump inlet, as well as steady-state and transient measurements of model pump two-phase performance. In addition, oscillation phenomena that may take place within the pump, and/or in the associated piping loop system, will be studied. A portion of the program is aimed at providing better information on the two-phase measurements made by drag disc and turbine meter instrumentation. An overall experimental program schedule to meet the program objectives is outlined
