Seismic tests of fuel assemblies

  • Published:
Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

Seismic tests of full-scale mockups of fuel assemblies from the VVER-1000 reactor permit the determination of the transfer characteristics between the stimulus (acceleration of the supports) and the response of the fuel assemblies. No resonant responses of the fuel assemblies to seismic loads are observed.
