LOFT three-beam densitometer data interpretation
A calculation procedure has been devised to fit the best of several density distribution models, or a default model, to chordal average fluid density measurements from the LOFT gamma densitometer to obtain an estimate of the coolant density profile and the average density. The models used are homogeneous, continuous and discontinuous stratified, and continuous and discontinuous annular. The default model is a beam length weighted average for an estimate of the average density. A computer program for applying these calculations to LOFT test data has been written.
