Development program and major test results for thermal insulation used in presence of sodium vapors and aerosols

Creators

Description

The major results of the development tests carried out on the metal thermal insulation used in presence of argon containing sodium aerosol and vapors and designed to protect the ''Super Phenix'' reactor slab are presented. The conditions under which sodium penetrates into this non-sealed thermal insulation are specified and the precautions required to prevent the formation of these condensates which might eventually cause deterioration of the thermal characteristics are given

Abstract (French)

On presente les principaux resultats des tests faits sur l'isolation thermique de metaux en presence d'argon contenant un aerosol de sodium et des vapeurs et destines a proteger la plaque du reacteur super Phenix. On specifie aussi les conditions dans lesquelles le sodium penetre dans l'isolation thermique non scellee et les precautions requises pour prevenir la formation de condensations qui pourraient eventuellement causer la deterioration de ses caracteristiques thermiques
