Large Scale Passive Containment Cooling System Baseline Test Data Report ABSTRACT The Heavy Water Reactor Facility (HWRF) is being designed utilizing the advanced technology of a Passive Containment Cooling System (PCCS), to remove beat released to the containment following a postulated beyond design basis event. This system employs passive or natural draft air cooling to transfer beat from the steel contamment shell to the environment. Air enters an annular space between the steel containment vessel and the shield building through inlets in the shield building wall. The air in this annulus rises as a result of the natural draft developed as the air is beated by the containment surface. The beated air exits the shield building through an outlet (ctnmney) located above the conramment shelt In this manner, beat is transferred from the outer containment surface to the environment by natural convection.

The purpose of the HWRF Large Scale Containtnent Cooling Test Program ptovides test data for use in developing analytical models and venfymg assumptions. The HWRF I.arge Scale Passive Contamment Cooling System tests investigate a range of operating conditions and air flow velocities.

The HWRF Large Scale PCCS tests are being conducted at the Westingbouse Science and Technology Center, Large Scale Passive Containment Cooling Test Facility. This facility was originally daimed for the AP600 Pnssive Containment Cooling System tests and was adopted for the HWRF Large Scale Ten program.

This report presents the test data obtamed for all thirteen baseline tests performed in the HWRFLarge Scale PCCS test vessel Six (6) basehne tests were performed without any intemal partitions and an additional seven (7) tests were performed with internal partitions below the operating deck level to produce open and closed volumes. The tests were completed using three different test pressures spanning the range of anticipated HWRF contamment pressures. Two annulus air flow conditions fan off, and fan on (9 ft/s air velocity) were tested. In addition, tests utilizing air inlet flow mustances were used to provide low air velocity data. The combination of fan assisted high velocity and inlet restricted low velocity span the anticipated IRVRF annulus air velocities. This data will be used to validate and verify the GOTHIC contamment analysis code. Application of the Large Scale Test data will be addressed in tie GOTHIC Verification and Validation Report.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

In the Heavy Water Reactor Facility (HWRF) design, the function of the Passive Containment Cooling System (PCCS)is to provide a safety grade means for transferring core decay heat after a beyond design basis event and any additional beat resulting from a postulated severe accident from the containment to the environment. 'Ibe HWRF utilizes passive cooling of the free standmg steel containment vessel (Figure 1.0-1). Heat is transferred to the inside surface of the steel containnent vessel by condensation of steam and through the steel wall by conduction. Heat is then transferred from the outside containment surface by natural convection to air. Cooling air enters an annular space between the steel containment shell and the shield building through inlets in the shield building wall. Tbc air is heated by the outside containment smface and rises as a resuh of the natural draft developed. The beated air exits the shield building through an outlet (chtmney) located above the containment shell.

A similar passive cooling approach has been under development for advanced new commercial plants and are supported by extensive testing and design evaluations. The detailed design and analysis of the HWRF PCCS will utilize this existing design basis.

The beat removal capability cf the HWRF PCCS is affected by the configuration of plant structures, extemal environmental conditions and natural phenomena which occur inside the containment structure itself. "Ibe performance depends predominantly upon the cooling air buoyant driving force, the air flow path pressure losses, the effective containment shell beat transfer coefficient and the available PCCS beat transfer area. Other factors which can influence PCCS performance include wind conditions, nearby buildings and topography, inside containment circulation panems and the effects of non-condensible gases inside the containment.

In order to accurately assess the impact of these parameters on the HWRF PCCS beat removal capability, a total testing package was prepared which includes the following series of tests:

HWRF Small Scale Containment Cooling Test HWRF Large Scale Passive Contamment Cooling System Test IfWRF PCCS Wind Tunnel Test HWRF PCCS Air Flow Path Pressure Drop Test The purpose of the HWRF Large Scale Containment Cooling Test was to demonstrate the simulated operation of the HWRF Containment Cooling System using natural ctrculation air cooling with a test vessel having a geometric scale better than one to twelve (depending on the final system design. A range of operating conditions were tested to provide test data for use in validation and verification of the GOTHIC containment analysis computer code which will be used for the design ard analysis of the HWRF containment. The GOTIUC code, which is actively sponsored by EPRI, is a sophisticated containment analysis tool that solves the Navier-Stokes equations for a multiple node three dimensional containment geometry. The code determines the pressure and temperature within containment and is capable of tracking constituent gases such as hydrogen. In addition, GOTIUC has the capability to explicitly model the exterior air flow path.

This report presents the test data from the thirteen basehne heat transfer tests of the HWRF Large Scale Containment Cooling Test configured with and without intemal compartments below the operating deck level. 'Ibe tests wen performed over a range of intemal test vessel pressures, boundmg the calculated worst case containment pressure, to obtain beat transfer data at relevant conditions and characterize air cooling velocities developed by natural convection. 7be report also provides a general summary of the overall HWRF Large Scale Containment Cooling Test program.

WESTINGHOUSE CLASS 3 NPR-RPT-92-004 Revision 1 2.0 PCCS LARGE SCALE TEST APPARATUS 2.1

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION The HWRF Large Scale Containment Cooling Baseline Tests were performed using the Large Scale Test Facility located at tie Westingbouse Science and Technology Center in Churclull, Pennsylvania. This facility which was constructed for the HWRF Contamment Testing Program and is shared under contractual agreement with the Westingbouse/ DOE (NE) commercial plant Passive Containment Cooling System (PCCS) test program.

h Imge Scale PCCS Test Facility uses a 20 foot tall,15 foot diameter pressure vessel to simulate the steel containment shell with a height to diameter ratio more typical of the actual containment stell than was availabic for the small scale tests (Ref 5.1). The larger vessel makes it possible to study in-vessel ptenomena such as non-condensible mixing, steam release jetting and condensation, as well as flow patterns inside of containment. The vessel contains air or nitrogen at one a:mosphere when cold and is supplied with steam at pressures up to 100 psig.

A transparent acrylic cylinder installed around the vessel forms the air cooling annulus. Air flow up the annulus outside the vessel cools the vessel surface resulting in condensation of the steam inside the vessel.

Figure 2.1-1 is a schematic diagram of the test apparatus used during the first series of tests (without internals).

Superbeated steam from a boiler is throttled to a variable but controlled pressure and supplied to the bottom of the vessel which for these t".s initially contained one atmosphere of air. The steam is injected into the bottom center of the vessel as shown it, the above figure.11e steam distributor provides low velocity steam at a scaled height commensurate with that of an operating deck of the reactor plant.

To establish the total beat transfer from the test vessel, measurements are recorded for steam inlet pressure, temperature, and condensate flow and temperature from the vessel. Eighty (80) thermocouples located on both the outer and inner surfaces of the vessel's 0.875 inch thick steel wallindicate the temperature distribution over the height and circumference of the vessel. Thermocouples placed approximately 1 inch inside the pressure vessel provide a measurement of the vessel bulk steam temperature as a function of position. An axial fan at the top of the annular shell provides the capability of testing the apparatus at higher air velocities than can be achieved during purely natural convection.

De temperature of the cooling air is measured at the entrance of the annular region and upon exiting the annulus in the chimney region prior to the fan. The cooling air velocity is measured by conducting a velocity traverse in the cooling air annulus using a hot wire anemometer.

A photograph of the test apparatus, Figure 2.1-2, shows many of the test components including the transparent cylinder and test vessel. The tower, which supports all but the pressure vessel, provides two floors for workers to assemble components, install instrumentation and conduct instrument traverses.

2.2 FOUNDATION AND TOWER The Large Scale test anicle is supported on a reinforced concrete foundation capable of supporting the weight of the test vessel and test tower under normal operating conditions (33 tons) and completely filled with water for bydro test

(<l40 too total).

The test tower provides support for the air baffles, piping and instrumentation as well as platforms for workmen and test operators. The test tower is displaced approximately 12 inches from the side of the test article to provide 3

WESTINGHOUSE CLASS 3 NPR-RPT-92-004 Revision 1 clearance for an air baffle. 'Ibe photograph (Figure 2.1-2) shows the test article sitting on the foundation with the test tower installed around it. The entire assembly is capable of withstanding 100 mile per hour winds.

2.3 PRESSURE VESSEL The HWRF test article was manufactured in accordance with the specification identiSed in Reference 5.2 and is summan2ed below:

Ibc contamment tank is an ASME Division 1 Seaion XIll vessel, built to 1/9* linear scale of the HWRF full-sized contamment and constructed of carbon steel with a minimum wall thickness of 0.875 inches. 'Ibe tank is designed for intemal pressures of5100 psig while operating at temperatures up to 350"F.

The 20 foot tall tank is a 15 foot in diameter with 2:1 elliptical beads at each end. Small penetrations (up to 3/8 NPT) are provided in the upper head for instrumentation or sampling probes and a central 4 inch weld neck flange for venting and instrument tree connections. The surfaces of the upper head and walls provide prototypic surfaces b

for the condensate 51m. The tank interior and exterior surfaces were sandblasted, prior to painting, with G-40 size steel shot. The tank was spray coated to a thickness of 4 to 6 mils with {

ay

]

A 24 inch manway for personnel access is provided in the side of the tank using appropriate welding necks and flanges. The tank bottom is equipped with a 20 inch flange for connection of the condensate drams, and mstrumentation lines. A separate 4 inch Dange is mounted on the bottom Dange to facilitate connection of the steam supply piping approximately 40 inches from the vessel centerline.

Intemal " gut:ers" provide a simulation of the crane rail and will be used as the means to separately collect the condensate from the inside sidewall (straight length) and from the dome region during confirmatory testing. The bottom of the two gutters are located approximately 7038 inches from the top of the vessel and was kept filled with water during the first series of baseline tests (without intemals) due to plugged drain boles. The top gutters were unplugged and were allowed to drain freely for tie second series of baseline testing (with intemal partitions). The gutter at the operating deck level was equipped with holes to allow condensate dramage into the bonom of the vessel.

The gutter also supports the superstructure for the intemal structures.

2.4 STEAM SUPPLY Saturated steam is supplied by a 10,000 pounds per hour gas fired boiler which is maintained at 100 psig during testing. Full firing is maintamed at the boiler to avoid cycling and pressure swings that could resuh in unsteady operation of controls in the test apparatus. Excess steam is vented to ambient through a pressure limiting relief valve and Dow silencer above the boiler. Laboratory deminerahzed water is used for boiler water makeup; condensate is retumed to the boiler for rectreulation.

The steam is supplial to the test tower through approximately 68 feet of 4 inch, Schedule 40 piping insulated with 1 1/2 inches of glass fiber insulation and approximately 123 feet of 3 inch schedule 80 pipe. 'Ibe 3 inch pipe is routed under the road separating the test facility from the control room through approximately % ft of 8 inch

" Perma-Pipe" equipped with trace beating to add superbeat to the steam. Electrical trace beaters are installed over 40 feet of the 4 inch steam supply piping to reduce piping beat losses and assure that superbeated steam conditions (after throttling from 100 psig to the lower test pressure) are maintained for all tests. At the test tower, steam is delivered from the main 4 inch supply to the test vessel inlet through a 3 inch insulated pipe.

~

The 3 inch steam supply pipe is connected to the 3 inch nipple welded into the 4 inch blirx! flange located 40 inches off the centerline of the pressure vessel on the bottom vessel dome.

Steam flow is pneumatically controlled with a 2 inch flow control valve.

2.5 VESSEL INTERNALS The initial series of baseline tests were perfonned with no intemal partitions in the vessel so that the intemal gases are free to move over the entire volume of the test vessel. "Ibe steel superstructure for the intemals partitions and the galvanned operating deck grating was installed. The steam was injected into the vessel through a 3 inch schedule 40 pipe covered with a stainless steel mesh is installed at a height equal to the height of the operating deck, approximately 57 inches from the bottom of the ve sel in the center of the vessel.

The second series of baseline tests were performed with intemal partitions installed in the vessel (Figure 2.5-1) providing open, closed and steam generator compartment volumes below the operating deck. 'Ibe intemals are typical of the advanced LWR test con 6guration which shares the Large Scale Test Facility. These intemals were used, since no details of the HWRF intemals were furmshed and the affeas of various intemals were expected to be muumal. The open areas provide vertical communication with the vessel volume above the operatmg deck. The closed areas provide a dead ended volume with one entrance and no exits. The steam generator compartment is equipped with a 18 inch diameter conical steam injection tube (T~igure 2.5-2) located in the center of the steam generator compartment six inches below the operating deck level. 'Ibe steam generator canpartment is open vertically to the vessel volume above the operating deck. The compartment walls are made of 16 gauge galvanued sheet.

2.6 CONDENSATE HANDLING Coudensate that is formed on the inside wall of the pressure vessel flows down and collects in the neck of the 20 inch flange at the bottom of the vessel. The condensate is removed through a 1 inch pipe connected to a liquid drain trap (vapor trap or steam trap) and cooled below 90"F by a condensate coohng beat exchanger. The cooled condensate is co!!ected in a weigh tank conststmg of a 55 gallon drum which rests on an electronic scale. "Ibe mass of condensate collected in the weigh tank is measured by the electronic scale and this reading is continuously communicated to the Data Acquisition System (DAS) over an RS232 interface. A level probe installed in the weigh tank is connected to a solenoid valve installed in the weigh tank drain line and provides for automatic drauung when the weigh tank is filled.

2.7 EXTERNAL COOLING ANNULUS AND AIR DUCTING The HWRF Large Scale Test utilizes a single 3 inch annulus width for all of the tests in the Baseline Test Matrix.

"Ibe cooling air annulus is formed by a baffle made of a 0.25 inch thick transparent acrylic cylinder installed on steel standoffs 3 inches from the pressure vessel surface. Twelve (12) four (4) inch alumumm strips (0.25 inch thick) were used to hold the vertical edges of the bafDe panels. The panels were czrcumferentially stiffened using 1.5 inch wide flat aluminum bars. The components were assembled, using screws to fasten the acrylic to the aluminum supports, to form a cylinder 125 inches (10 feet 5 inches) high and 186 inches inside diameter. The bottom of the acrylic cylinder was located at an elevation approximately 7-3/4 inches above the top of the guner and approumately 65 inches from the bottom of the vessel. This forms the air inlet to the cooling annulus domed diffuser and conical section is provided as a transaion between the 186 inch diameter annulus wall and the 48 inch diameter axial fan housing. The transition is 98 inches high (Figure 2.7-1). The loss coefficient of the annulus was estimated at 12.8

~

(see Appendix A). The loss coefScient was adjnsted by the addition of flow ori5ces at the bafDe inlet. Operation 5

WESTINGHOUSE CLASS 3 NPR-RFT-92-ON Revision 1 with all of the ori6ces open produced an estimated loss coefficient of 20 and a loss coeflicient of 40 with

~

approximately half the holes open.

2.8 AXIAL FAN The axial fan is mounted in the annulus exit duct and provides controlled velocity air ' low in the cooling air annulus for previous tests was used only for the InVRF tests requiring air velocities in excess of 4 ft/sec. The fan is 48 inches in diameter and 36 inches tall.

2.9 INSTRUMENTATION AND MEASUREMENTS 2.9.1 Steam and Condensate Flow, Temperature, and Pressure Steam flow rates to the vessel were not measured directly; however, steam that condensed on the inside vessel wall was measured by collecting the condensate in a weigh tank. The mass of condensate collected in the weigh tank was measured using an electronic scale. Tie scale reading was communicated to the Data Acquisition System (DAS) over RS232 interfam and recorded, along with tie coinciding time, at the same sampling rate selected for recording temperature measurements.

The steam inlet temperature was measured using a 1/16 inch diameter stainless steel sheathed chromal-alumel thermocouple locatedjust upstream of the steam distributorinlet. Condersate temperature was measured as it dramed from the vessel.

Steam pressure was measured using a pressure transducer connected to tie top of the test vessel with the sensing unit located at the DAS in the control room by 0.25 inch copper tubing. 'Ibe pressure transducer has an accuracy of 1/4 percent (or 0.4 psi) with a output conversion:

P = 1,*0.308299 - 38.2145 where:

P. = Intemal Vessel Twssure (psig)

Im = Data Output Channel (238)(mv)

'Ibe enthalpies of the steam entering the vessel and the condensate leaving the vessel were determined using the steam inlet temperature, vessel pressure and condensate drain temperature. Tue condensate mass flowrate was calculated by dividing the mass of condensate collected over a given time interval by the cowycnding time duration. The beat input to the vessel or the total beat transfer from the vessel (presented in Table 4.1-3) was determined by multiplying the difference of the steam and condensate enthalpies by the condensate mass flowrate.

2.9.2 Containment Vessel Wall Temperatures Forty 0.032 inch diameter stainless steel sheathed chromel-alumel tiermocouples attached to tie outer vessel wall provided a measure of vessel surfam temperature. Each thermocouplejunction end was installed in a 1/32 inch deep, 1/32 inch wide groove approximately 3/4 of an inch !ong and peened into place. The grooves were filled with solder and fitushed to provide a smooth outer surface. A matching thermocouple is located on the inside wall at each location to provide heat flux measurements.

6

WESTINGHOUSE CLASS 3 NPR.RPT-92-ON Revision 1 2.9.3 Containment Annulus Air Flow and Temperature An ALNOR 'Ibermo Anemometer was used to measure tie air velocity in the cooling air annulus. 'Ibe air velocity was obtamed by performing air velocity traverses while the test was operating at steady state conditions. The traverses were conducted at six circumferential positions at two elevations along the vertical annulus; each traverse consisted of eight velocity measurements across the annulus width. Due to the nature of the instrument operating charactenstics and calibration procedures, velocity readings obtained using the ALNOR instrument are referenced to standard atmospheric conditions. To obtain the actuallocal annulus air velocities, the test velocity measurements were corrected as follows:

V, = V, x CF Where:

V, = actual air velocity (ft/sec)

V, = velocity indicated by Thermo Anemometer (ft/sec)

CF = correction factor = ds/da = 0.075*(459.7+T)/1.325*Pa i

ds = air density (Ib/cu ft) at standard calibration conditions da = actual air density at local temperature and barometric pressure T = local air temperature (*F) at velocity measurement location i

4-Pa = ambient pressure (in.Hg)

~

  • lhe local air temperature measurements for the inlet velocity correction was obtamed by averaging the four annulus air temperatures at the inlet for the inlet air velocity. The temperatme for the top velocity was obtained by averaging the annulus air temperature measured after approximately half the wall beat transfer strea (Traverse Mid, see Table 2.9-1) with the annulus air temperature along the bemispberical head at a position representing approximately three-quarters of the beat transfer area (Traverse Knuckle).

The average air temperature entering the annulus was measured using four radiation shielded tiermocouples, spaced 90* apart, located in the annulus inlet region. The average air temperature leaving the baffle was measured using four sets of two thermocouples centear 130 equal areas at the outlet of the air annulus before the fan with the two thermocouples in each set located 90* gart. Each thermocouple was equipped with radiation shielding to obtain a true air temperature readmg.

2.9.4 Annulus Wall Temperatures The inner surface temperature of the 3 inch annulus wall was measured using fifteen 0.032 inch diameter stainless neel sheathed chromel-alumel thermocouples attached to the inner surface of the acrylic cylinder. 7be wall thermocouples were located at each elevation where beat flux meters were plamd; wall thermocouples located on the diffuser section were located nearly opposite the 84 inch radius flux meters (~79 inch radius).

2.9.5 Wind Speed and Direction A weather vane / anemometer was mounted on the roof of the building ninety feet to the west of the test tower approximately 12 feet above ground level. 'Ibe wind speed and duection indicated by the anemometer were sampled

~

and recorded on hardcopy during the first three test runs (identified in Section 5.1). The wind speed and direction 7

WESTINGHOUSE CLASS 3 NPR.RFT-92-004 Revision 1 were added to the data acquisition system and continuously monitored and recorded during all but the first three test runs of the tests reported herein on DAS channels 240 and 241, respectively. ~1 bis data was used to confirm that the steady state test data was not influenced by high average local wind conditions in excess of 5 mph during natu.at convection tests. Tests performed under forced convection (-8 ft/sec) were acceptcJ at local condhions averaging less than 6 mph.

2.9.6 Data Acquisition and Recording The test measurements, such as air velocity and atmospheric pressure, were obtained with installed or portable mstruments and manually recorded in a data log togetler with the time at which the observations were made.

Thermocouple temperature measurements and collected condensate weight were processed by a data acquisition system. Thermocouples were connected to the system by 20 AWG, chromel-alumel special limit (controlled ptaity) duplex extension wires with solid PVC insulation. All thermocouple outputs were recorded using an electronic data logger unit. Thennocouple extensions were connected to isothermal terminal blocks that plugged into sets oflow level input cards on the data logger or an extender chassis that connected with the data logger. "Ibe voltage signals were converted to digital temperatures as the data logger sequentially sampled the inputs. The sampling was done according to a pre-selected sequence programmed into the data logger. Since tie data logger did not provide data storage capability, its digital output was transmitted, along with the condensate weigh tant output, to a computer for display and storage on a floppy disk.

The locations of the thermocouples are identified in Table 2.9-1 by a code which identifies the vertical position and the azimuth at the vertical section. The vertical cross sections are identified as shown in Figure 2.9-1 The dome of the vessel is broken into 5 levels designated by tbeir radius

]and the side wall into cross O

sections A through F.

3.0 TEST CONDITIONS The test conditions examined by the HWRF Large Scale Passive Containment Cooling Baseline Tests are listed in the test matrix provided as Table 3.0-1. All tests were performed with inlet air at ambient temperature and humidity.

As specified in the test matrix, the thirteen tests were performed at three constant test pressures selected to provide data bounding the calculated worst case contamment pressure of 95 psia (Reference 5.3) and provide heat transfer data over this pressure range.

The tests performed during these series of baseline tests consisted of steady state tests at 10,30 and 80 psig under natural convection annulus air flow and at air flows of approximately 9 ft/sec utilizing the exit fan to provide the additional air flow. Tests were also conducted at increased increased air flow resistances to obtain lower air flow rates and to clarify the differences between fan enhanced flow and natural convection flow.

WESTINGHOUSE CLASS 3 NPR-RPT-92-004 Revision 1 4.0 HWRF LARGE SCALE TEST RESULTS Prelimmary HWRF.Large Scale Containment Cooling Test results for the Baseline tests are summarized in Tables 4.0-1 through Table 4.0-13. Appendix B provides a detailed output of the summary data by time and data acquisition channel number for the no internals tests and Appendix C provides the detailed data for the tests with internals.

4.1 HWRF LARGE SCALE TEST RESULTS The LST data presented was obtained through a review of the test history recorded by the data acquisition system. The data representing steady state pressure conditions (t.5 psig over a mmimum 0

of 15 minutes) was isolated for further review. This portion of the data was further scanned for best overall steady state conditions (e.g. calm winds, steady vessel wall temperatures, internal fluid temperatures, etc.). Condensate drain weights in the isolated data were reviewed to ensure that only condensate weight values corresponding to tank fill periods were considered in calculation of the condensate flow rates, i.e. values affected by the start and stop of condensate tank draimng were excluded. The isolated data was then averaged and the overall results are tabulated in Tables 4.0-1 through 4.0-13. This data reflect the averages of the temperatures at the various test vessel levels.

He average differential temperatures have been corrected for the average calibration offset shown in Table 4.1-1. The heat flux meter differentials were applied to the heat flux measurements by subtracting the value appearmg in Table 4.1-1 from the average AT values for each test vessel level.

Also included in the Tables are the average air velocity measurements supplied as manual inputs for all tests. Wind direction and speed were taken manually for tests 101.1,104.1 and 107.1 and were incorporated into the data acquisition system for all subsequent tests. De test vessel initial temperature was obtained from a scan of the test vessel prior to the introduction of steam or the ambient temperature at daily startup (when available). The ambient pressure, humidity and temperature were recorded at start of each test.

Table 4.1-2 provides estimates of the test vessel and baffle surface areas and the applicable flow areas for use in evaluation of the test data.

Table 4.1-3 presents a summary of the overall performance of each of the tests described herein. Each test was reviewed by comparing the pressure predicted from the vessel average inside wall temperature to the measured pressure conditions. De predicted pressure is calculated from the following relationship:

P, = Pe*T/T + P o

o es 26

WESTINGHOUSE CLASS 3 NPR-RFT-92-004 Revision 1 Where:

P, = Predicted Vessel Pressure (psia)

Pa = Initial Pressure of VesselInternals (psia)

T = Average Inside Wall Temperature at Test Conditions (*R)

To = Average Initial Air Temperature at Startup P,,, = Saturation Pressure at average vessel inside wall temperature (psia)

If the test integrity is maintained, the ratio of predicted to measured pressure will be lower than or close to unity. Review of Test 101.1 (run RSL) indicates that some of the air was released from the vessel shortly after startup due to venting of the vessel after steam injection was started. This was done to correct a plug in the condensate line. The vessel was allowed to cool prior to repair of the condensate collection system but no data is available to determine the absolute condition of the test vessel prior to restart.
