PWR blowdown heat transfer separate-effects program. Thermal-hydraulic test facility experimental data report for test 157
Reduced instrument responses are presented for Thermal-Hydraulic Test Facility (THTF) test 157, which is part of the ORNL Pressurized-Water Reactor (PWR) Blowdown Heat Transfer Separate-Effects Program. The objective of the program is to investigate the thermal-hydraulic phenomenon governing the energy transfer and transport processes that occur during a loss-of-coolant accident in a PWR system. Test 157 was conducted to obtain thermal-hydraulic and CHF information in the THTF bundle 1 operating at nominal power with significant outlet subcooling and containing four unpowered rods. The primary purpose of this report is to make the reduced instrument responses during test 157 available. The responses are presented in graphical form in engineering units and have been analyzed only to the extent necessary to assure reasonableness and consistency.
