slide2. BWXT – NTP at SSC (current) Licensing General Support
Licensing Environmental Report Gap Assessment
Subscale Test Component Selection
Subscale Test Scaling Analysis
Subscale Test I&C Approach
A3 Full Scale Test ROM Estimate Assessment<br>
slide3. A3 Full Scale Concept Design Start with NASA NTP ground test facility (GTF) design concept
Supplement with BWXT System Gap assessment
Apply scaling requirements to derive the demonstration<br>
slide4. Exhaust Capture Demonstration Help establish full-scale control system design basis
Use physical components scaled from full-scale system(s)
Determine required input parameters and time responses
Define and refine processing algorithms
Define and validate response and control actions
Demonstrate response to potential casualties
Control system pressures/temperatures within acceptable bounds
Demonstrate system response to core damage
NRC expects demonstration, not simply analysis
Ability to capture and contain fission products
Potential tests include cesium, strontium, iodine, krypton, and xenon
Nominal operations Translate Design Basis into I&C requirements and features<br>
