The 2018 NRC HEAF tests were conducted in Chalfont Pennsylvania at KEMA High Power Laboratory during the week of September 10th. These scoping tests were executed to determine the most effective measurement methodologies for future tests. The goal of Sandia’s Photometrics group was to provide high-speed quantitative and qualitative imaging of the arcing fault tests for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The measurement methods included visible high-speed imaging, high-speed high-dynamic range visible imaging, thermal imaging, and quantitative flow imaging. In addition, data fusion products were generated to visualize instrumentation data and imaging measurements. All imaging has been time synchronized to the start of the arcing event.
