Auxiliary heat-exchanger flow-distribution test. [HTGR]

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5969695
The Auxiliary Heat Exchanger Flow Distribution Test was the first part of a test program to develop a water-cooled (tube-side), compact heat exchanger for removing heat from the circulating gas in a High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (HTGR). The function of this heat exchanger is to provide emergency cooldown for the HTGR. It is designed to operate over a wide range of helium or helium mixture conditions from depressurized to pressurized reactor operations.
