Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4820782
Experimental information from operation of PWR Core 1 with the second seed installed is discussed. Three areas of interest are included in which pre- operation predictions were available for comparison: inlet plenum mixing, seed blanket power shavings, and fuel plate centerline temperatures. A tabulation of the mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of Core 1, Seed 2 is included. (M.C.G.)
