HEAT EXCHANGER TESTING FOR CLOSED FEEDWATER HEATERS (ASME PTC 12.1)

ILD has experience in writing programs and procedures as well as performing on site testing of heat exchangers to the requirements of ASME PTC 12.1 to determine the performance of closed feedwater heaters in the nuclear cycle. Such testing can be performed immediately after component replacement or modification for commercial warranty testing or at any subsequent time to determine current performance and detect and quantify degradation. Other types of heat exchangers can be evaluated against the recommendations of the Heat Exchanger Institute (HEI) and the USNRC (via GL 89-13).
