Abstract

Highlights: [•] Debris filtering efficiencies for two debris filter designs used in PWRs are provided. [•] Various debris used in the tests are selected to simulate actual debris found in PWRs. [•] Debris filter efficiency is explained by flow-hole size and grid strap height. [•] The effect of debris filters on flow blockage during LTC after a LOCA is described. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
