Quick look report on LOFT nuclear experiment L2-2. [PWR]
This report presents a preliminary evaluation and summary of the results of the first LOFT nuclear loss-of-coolant experiment (LOCE), LOCE L2-2, which was successfully conducted on December 9, 1978. LOCE L2-2 is the first experiment in the power ascension series as defined in Volume I of the Experiment Operating Specification. LOCE L2-2 simulated a complete double-ended offset shear break of a large pressurized water reactor inlet pipe. Selected data are presented in the report to confirm that the objectives of LOCE L2-2, as defined in Volume 2 of the Experiment Operating Specification, were met. The experiment was successful in achieving all objectives.
