Flow-Induced Vibration Test in the Preheater Region of n Steam Generator Tube Bundle

  • Published : 1996.05.01

Abstract

Flow induced vibration experiments were done to determine the vibration magnitude of tubes in the economizer tube lane region of a steam generator. The objective of this experiment is to demonstrate that the tubes are not susceptible to harmful levels of vibration at 100% of full power flow and to quantify the remaining design margin at 120% and 140% of full power flow.
