Terry Turbine Overspeed Test Device (TTOD)
Using an electric motor with a variable speed drive, we bring
the
turbine to trip speed while monitoring RPM and mechanical trip
linkage. Precise speed and acceleration control provides
unbeatable repeatability. Since no steam is required, AFW and
RCIC testing can be removed from critical path. First 465HP
Worthington turbine tested successfully in May 2008. First
Japanese RCIC overspeed test performed in June 2008.

Turbine Controls Test Device (TCTD)
Building on the success
of the ILD Terry Turbine Over-speed Device™, ILD has built the next
generation of scalable turbine controls testing equipment, the Turbine
Controls Test Device™ (TCTD). The TCTD incorporates ILD's
patented technology to allow larger auxiliary turbines, such as HPCI
turbines, to be over-speed tested without steam.

Best Estimate Power Monitor
Inform the plant staff to the extent of any
overpower or underpower conditions which exist during routine, “full
power” operations. The analysis is performed utilizing a
statistical
method often referred to as “best estimate” analysis. This
method has
been recognized by ASME, and appears in the Power Test Codes.
The
method uses as many different independent parameters as possible that
can be
correlated to reactor power. The independence of these
measurements minimizes the
uncertainty of the aggregate result, which can be much lower than the
uncertainty of any of the individual measured parameters.
