Determination of Pressure in a Two-Phase Water System,

Abstract

A method of determining pressure changes in a two-phase water system is presented. Two applications are given which pertain to the design of nuclear reactor systems. The method utilizes information obtained from sample calculations to enter a chart from which the pressure can be readily determined. In addition, an analytical approach is taken and an equation derived which describes pressure changes also, but less accurately than the graphical method.
