AbstractAbstract
[en] Reactor coolant pump motor power and temperature measurements are used by Babcock and Wilcox (B and W) plant owners to calculate void fraction for trending ICC conditions while the pumps are running. In this report, the Nuclear Power Plant Instrument Evaluation (NPPIE) project compares system accuracy, capability, and limitations to measurement requirements using small-break test data and full-scale plant analytical studies. Small-break experimental data show that ICC void fraction calculations are conservative compared to gamma densitometer void fraction measurements in the pipe just upstream of the pumps and liquid level conductivity probes in the reactor vessel. Analytical studies verify that a measure of void fraction at the pumps is conservative relative to the desired coolant inventory trend conditions in the reactor vessel
