Bordner, G L

Statistical techniques based on estimation theory were developed for the analysis of steady-state data from thermo-hydraulic systems, which could be either experimental loops or operating power plants. The method seeks to resolve errors in the component heat balances which describe the system, to obtain system parameter estimates which are more accurate than the raw data, and to flag possible faulty sensors. Sample results are given for the analysis of test data from the Sodium Loop Safety Faciltiy (SLSF) P3 experiment.
