Sodium Hydrogen Sensor and Acoustic Flow Sensor Development

This report documents the development of diffusion-type hydrogen meters (DTHMs) as part of a steam generator leak detection system (SGLDS) of sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFR) and the demonstration of the capabilities of acoustic flowmeters, including a commercial UTFM (Flexim FLUXUS F721) and an Argonne HT acoustic flowmeter running on shear-to-longitudinal mode. It also evaluates two Argonne permanent magnet flowmeters (PMFMs).

Testing of In-Sodium Hydrogen Sensor

The goal of this project is to demonstrate diffusion-type in-sodium hydrogen meters (ISHMs) for real-time, in-situ monitoring of hydrogen concentration in molten sodium of a sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR). The FY22 R&D efforts have been focused on (a) enhancement and fabrication of meshed ISHM prototype, (b) reconstruction of ISHM sodium test apparatus, (c) in-sodium test of meshed ISHM, and (d) ISHM performance and failure evaluations.
