HIGH HEAT FLUX TESTS AND BURNOUT TEST ON PARALLEL FLOW RODS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4299916
High heat flux tests with no burnout and a single physical burnout were conducted with vertical upflow of water at 200 C psia using a test section having nine heated rods of PWR core 1 blanket size and pitch. These results indicate taat tae Bettis Thermal Design Procedures of WAPD-SRF-RS-444 are conservative in predicting burnout heat fluxes for flow outside of parallel rod bundles. ( J.R.D.)
