SUMMARY
The objectives of tests H-3 and H-4 are to demonstrate the operation of a passive containment cooling system with the presence of a high concentration oflighter-than-steam non-condensable gas and to provide a database for computer codes used to predict SBWR contaimnent system performance in the presence of a lighter-than-steam non-condensable gas.
Test H-3 and H-4 initial conditions are provided in Reference 1. The test procedures and instrument locations are proprietary information.
Test H-3 started with a mixture of nitrogen, helium and steam in the drywell. Helium is used to simulate the hydrogen that could be generated as the result of a fuel-clad metal water reaction. The total initial drywell pressure and all other initial test conditions for test H-3 were the same as those for the base case, test H-1.
Test H-4 started with the same initial test conditions as those for the base case, test H-1.
Helium was injected into the drywell at a constant rate for the Erst hour of the test. The mass of helium injected for test H-4 was equal to the initial mass of helium in the drywell for test H-3.
2.0 CONCLUSION
For both tests H-3 and H-4, the D/W peak pressures were confirmed to be well below the design limit. These tests demonstrated the successful operation of the PCCS with the presence of a heavier-than-steam and a high concentration of a lighter-than-steam non-condensable gas.
