Investigation of Leakage Characteristics on Major Equipment/Component in Reactor System

To predict leakage flowrate from major equipment/component in reactor system, potential leakage points in reactor system were reviewed and models of critical flowrate were investigated. For predictions of leakage flow, three kinds of critical flow models, e.g., ideal gas flow model, Trapp-Ransom model, and Henry-Fauske model, were investigated. Using Henry-Fauske model, leakage flows were obtained…
