Prior to the connection of a hydrogen production plant to the HTTR, the fluctuation tests of the chemical reaction in the steam reformer with the mock-up test facility of the HTTR hydrogen production system were carried out for the establishment and demonstration of the control technology. As a result, it was shown that the HTTR hydrogen production system with the same control system as the mock-up test facility can provide stable controllability for any disturbance at the steam reformer without the influence to the reactor. In addition, a dynamic simulation code for the HTTR hydrogen production system was verified with the obtained test data.

Due to the operating conditions of BWRs (285C and 7 MPa), the direct visualization and detailed liquid film measurement of steam-water annular flow in BWRs have been highly challenging. This study addresses this limitation by developing a novel HFC134a-ethanol annular flow system at lower temperature and pressure (40C and 0.7 MPa), simulating the steam-water annular flow under BWR conditions. The experiments of HFC134a-ethanol upward annular flow were conducted in a 5 mm inner diameter tube using the constant electric current method, and we obtained the flow characteristics including base, average, and maximum film thickness and the height of disturbance wave.
