Number of simulated fuel rods:289
Test details:
The test was initiated by filling the test vessel to a specified level with saturated water from the accumulators or the flash chamber. The power was then turned on and data acquisition began. The water began to boil away, generating a two-phase mixture, and the rods were slowly uncovered from the top down. As the rods were uncovered, the emperature of the rods suddenly increased. The power as turned off when the rod temperature reached the maximum allowable temperature of 1580°F (860°C), or when the rods were uncovered below the 69 in. (1.75 m) level. After the power was turned off, data taking continued for 30 seconds; the test was then terminated.
