Recorded test data are presented for Tests S-05-6 and S-05-7 of the Semiscale Mod-1 alternate ECC injection test series. These tests are among several Semiscale Mod-1 experiments conducted to investigate the thermal and hydraulic phenomena accompanying a hypothesized loss-of-coolant accident in a pressurized water reactor (PWR) system. Tests S-05-6 and S-05-7 were conducted from initial conditions of 2263 psia and 550/sup 0/F and 2253 psia and 551/sup 0/F, respectively, to investigate the response of the Semiscale Mod-1 system to a depressurization and reflood transient following a simulated double-ended offset shear of the cold leg broken loop piping. The specific objective for these tests was to investigate the effectiveness of low pressure injection system (LPIS) coolant injection into the upper plenum when combined with cold leg intact loop injection.
