Workshop on hydrogen burning and containment building integrity. [PWR; BWR]

Conference · Wed Jul 01 00:00:00 EDT 1981

OSTI ID:5714295

The purpose of the meeting was to promote interaction among recognized industry experts on hydrogen flammability and detonation phenomena, the methods available to control such occurrences and the inherent capabilities of reactor containment buildings to withstand hydrogen burns. The agenda of topics and the list of attendees at the two sessions are indicated in the front matter. Representation at the workshop included utilities, NSSS suppliers, architect-engineers, consultants, laboratories, EPRI and NSAC. Copies of viewgraphs presented during the two days and some supplemental material relating to the discussions are included in this report.
