A one-sixth scaled facility was constructed at Oregon State University to determine
the pressure losses around Westinghouse's AP1000 Passive Containment
Cooling System. An explanation of the AP1000 Passive Containment Cooling System
is given. This study examined the pressure loss and loss coefficient around the
180 degree turn of the Passive...
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...
