In-vessel transfer machine seal thermal analysis
An analysis of the grapple drive stem temperature during operation of the IVTM (In-Vessel Transfer Machine) indicates that the maximum stem wall temperature at the seals will be 270/sup 0/F when the system is at dynamic thermal equilibrium. If the transfer operation is initiated with the grapple drive stem initially at thermal equilibrium in the lowered position, a pre-cooling step will be required if the maximum temperature of the grapple drive stem wall at the seals is to be limited to 300/sup 0/F.
