Separate and integral effect tests of aerosol retention in steam generator during tube rupture accident

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
A steam generator tube rupture accompanying a core damage may cause the fission product to be released to environment bypassing the containment. In such an accident, the steam generator is the major path of the radioactive aerosol release.AEOLUS facility,

The Effect of Clamping Force on the Wear Behavior of a Steam Generator Tube

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Anti-vibration bars (AVBs) are essential components of a steam generator (SG) and are used to prevent steam generator tubes (SGTs) from vibrating intensely because of flow-induced vibration.

Steam Generator Secondary pH during a Steam Generator Tube Rupture [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology, 1993
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission requires utilizes to determine the response of a pressurized water reactor to a steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) as part of the safety analysis for the plant. The SGTR analysis includes assumptions regarding the partitioning of iodine between liquid and vapor in steam generator secondary.
