Influence of dissolved salts and impurities on seawater on heat transfer and fluid flow through fuel channels and debris bed

This project aims to better understand this mechanism and its effect on heat transfer. Specifically, experimental research was conducted to investigate the long term coolability issues in scaled test setups. Advanced diagnostic and measurement techniques were investigated and incorporated into an annular test facility and a debris bed test facility. The diagnostic techniques investigated included: radioactively tagged salt solution, Frisch collar radiation detector array, neutron and x-ray imaging systems, and a Rayleigh backscatter-based fiber-optic temperature system. Models were checked against the in-situ experimental data and recommendations were made for modeling purposes.
