Abstract

This state of the art review identifies and discusses existing methods of flow-induced vibration analysis applicable to steam generators, their limitations and base-technology needs. Also included are discussions of five different LMFBR steam generator configurations and important design considerations, failure experiences, possible flow-induced excitation mechanisms, vibration testing and available methods of vibration analysis. The objectives are to aid LMFBR steam generator designers in making the best possible evaluation of potential vibration in steam generator internals, and to provide the basis for development of design guidelines to avoid detrimental flow-induced vibration.
