| | NESC0853: SURGTANK, Steam Pressure, Saturation Temperature or Reactor Surge Tank (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-14) |
 | | It is capable also of providing the pressure and saturation temperature history, starting from thermodynamic equilibrium conditions, for the same tank sub- jected to an outsurge described by a time history of liquid levels. |
 | | The assumed pressure is adjusted and the associa- ted change in entropy recalculated until a pressure is attained for which no change occurs. |
 | | SURGTANK assumes a slightly in- creased pressure for the end of the first level, the inner tank sur- face is assumed to follow saturation temperature, linearly with time, throughout the interval, and the heat transferred to the walls and down into the liquid content of the tank is computed. |
