The first steam generator for China's demonstration high-temperature gas-cooled reactor plant (HTR-PM) has completed air pressure tests, confirming its integrity, China National Nuclear Corporation ...

Using dry nitrogen to pressure test a system is a very effective method of verifying a system is leak-free. In fact, I believe it is more reliable than using a standing vacuum test typically performed ...

Imagine a young engineer examining an artifact from the Apollo era that helped send people on humankind’s first venture to another world. The engineer has seen diagrams of the rocket engine. She has ...

Historically, generator inspections require rotor removal (Figure 1). There’s a significant level of risk during this process due to possible generator damage during the disassembly, and it also ...

Testing activities have been successfully completed for a first-of-a-kind helical coil steam generator for use in NuScale Power's small modular reactor design. Testing activities have been ...

This Generator Test Set, also known as a generator tester, load bank or dummy load, provides a fully controllable load that mimics the real load the generator would see in normal operation.

For starters, the term "ground" refers to a conductive body, which is typically the earth. The act of "grounding" means creating a low-resistance path between an electrical circuit or equipment to the ...
