During the report period, conceptual designs for the collector and steam generator subsystem research experiments (SREs) were approved, and design detailing began. The thermal storage SRE concept was modified through additional analyses and engineering model experiments and resubmitted for evaluation. Detailed designs for all three subsystems will be submitted during the next quarter. Preparation for SRE testing proceeded through procurement of long-leadtime items and detailed definition of test arrangements. Analysis and design of the electrical generation subsystem and balance of the plant proceeded essentially on schedule.
