3. DESCRIPTION OF TEST FACILITY - The Two-Loop-Test-Apparatus (TLTA) is a 1:624 volume scaled BWR/6 simulator. It was the predecessor of the better-scaled FIST facility. The facility is capable of full BWR system pressure and has a simulated core with a full size 8 x 8, full power single bundle of indirect electrically heated rods. All major BWR systems are simulated including lower plenum, guide tube, core region (bundle and bypass), upper plenum, steam separator, steam dome, annular downcomer, recirculation loops and ECC injection systems. The fundamental scaling consideration was to achieve real-time response. A number of the scaling compromises present in TLTA were corrected in the FIST configuration. These compromises include a number of regional volumes and component elevations.

4. DESCRIPTION OF TEST - 64.45 sqcm small-break LOCA; no high pressure cooling system

5. EXPERIMENTAL LIMITATIONS OR SHORTCOMINGS -

6. PHENOMENA TESTED - Channel bypass axial flow and void distribution; core heat transfer; quench front propagation for both fuel rods and channel walls; guide tube and lower plenum flashing; mixture level
in core.
