Experimental and theoretical investigations of flashing induced instabilities at the CIRCUS test facility
Experimental and theoretical investigations of flashing induced instabilities at the CIRCUS test facility
Manera, A.; Schäfer, F.
The CIRCUS test facility (CIRCUlation during Startup) has been built to study the start-up phase of a natural-circulation BWR. During the start-up so called flashing-induced instabilities can arise. This paper gives an overview about experimental results and the physics of the instabilities. The thermo-hydraulic code ATHLET is used to investigate the dynamic bevavior of the test facility.
