Development of impedance sensors at ORNL: for measurement of two-phase flows. [PWR]

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5472745
;
Techniques and equipment have been developed to measure in-vessel local void fraction and velocity in a reflood transient test facility. The two impedance sensors, the flag probe and the string probe, have been tested (prototype sensors) in a variety of air-water and steam-water facilities an in all cases acceptable measurement results were obtained.
