The proceedings of a workshop on pressurized water reactor (PWR) steam generator waterhammer problems is presented. This workshop, initiated by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) was attended by representatives of PWR owner utilities, nuclear steam system suppliers, and architect-engineer firms. The objective of the workshop was to review current steam generator waterhammer problems and concerns and the status of potential solutions to these problems, and to develop a consensus regarding work to be pursued in the future. A summary of the current status of steam generator waterhammer problems, recommended future work, a copy of each participant's presented material, and a copy of the NRC Program for the Resolution of Generic Issues Related to Nuclear Power Plants Waterhammer activity are included.
