Noise diagnostics for safety assessment. Quarterly progress report for October--December 1976. [BWR, PWR, and LMFBR]
Technical Report

OSTI ID:7217169
The scope of this new confirmatory assessment program includes neutron noise diagnostics, core internal vibration monitoring, loose-parts monitoring, and plant surveillance using noise diagnostic techniques. Accomplishments thus far include: (1) obtaining neutron noise signatures from the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant to aid in assessing monitoring techniques for in-core instrument tube vibrations, (2) initiating review of loose-parts monitoring systems, and (3) initiating review of analytical and experimental tools being applied by industry to detect and determine the cause of vibrations in rotating machinery such as pumps, motors, and turbines.
