OTS. Heating and cooling tests were made on the ORR HN-1 in-pile loop mockup 0-l-20 to test the operation of the loop when subjected to reactor scrams or setbacks. The loop was fitted with additional heaters to simulate reactor heat. Reactor transients were simulated by manually changing the power at a predetermined rate. It was found that thc loop control system was adequate and that loop temperatures could be maintained within a total change of 5 deg C. (auth)
