Effects of entrained gas on the acoustic detection of sodium boiling in a simulated LMFBR fuel bundle

Creators

Description

The relationship between acoustic intensity of nucleate boiling and void fraction was studied in a simulated LMFBR fuel bundle. Results indicate that as the void fraction increases the detected intensity of nucleate boiling decreased until it was indistinguishable from background noise. (JWR)
