  • Experimental investigation of condensation phenomena inside a U-tube steam generator

    Creator:
    Collins, Brian A.
    Abstract:
    Reflux condensation tests examining steam condensation in a PWR steam generator (SG) were conducted at the Oregon State University (OSU) Advanced Plant Experiment (APEX) Test Facility from 2005 through 2007. The experimental data collected will provide a basis to assess TRACE steam generator modeling techniques and assist in development of...

  • System model of a natural circulation integral test facility

    Creator:
    Galvin, Mark Robert, 1967-
    Abstract:
    The Department of Nuclear Engineering and Radiation Health Physics (NE/RHP) at Oregon State University (OSU) has been developing an innovative modular reactor plant concept since being initiated with a Department of Energy (DoE) grant in 1999. This concept, the Multi-Application Small Light Water Reactor (MASLWR), is an integral pressurized water...

  • Scaling analysis of the OSU high temperature test facility during a pressurized conduction cooldown event using RELAP5-3D

    Creator:
    Castañeda, Juan A.
    Abstract:
    In early 2000, the Generation IV International Forum (GIF) was created to perform research and development for the next generation nuclear systems. Among the selected nuclear systems was the Very High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (VHTR). Then in 2008, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) decided that the Next Generation Nuclear...

  • RELAP5-3D modeling of ADS blowdown of MASLWR facility

    Creator:
    Bowser, Christopher Jordan
    Abstract:
    Oregon State University has hosted an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) International Collaborative Standard Problem (ICSP) through testing conducted on the Multi-Application Small Light Water (MASLWR) facility. The MASLWR facility features a full-time natural circulation loop in the primary vessel and a unique pressure suppression device for accident scenarios. Automatic...

  • Development of a Novel MEMS Thermal Sensor Array for Pebble Bed HTGRs

    Creator:
    Hertel, Matthew A.
    Abstract:
    A novel high temperature thermal instrument is proposed, which utilizes a dual-sensing platinum resistor encased in a mono-crystalline alpha-alumina (sapphire) substrate. The instrument is comprised of four platinum trace elements, oriented with 90° rotational symmetry atop a 1120 oriented crystal lattice substrate. All four of these sensors measure temperature directly...
