Description

This test procedure provides a detailed description of the verification methods which shall be used in the developmental program to be conducted on the Kilowatt Isotope Power System (KIPS) Radiator Bypass Valve, to fulfill the requirements of the Ground Demonstration System Design Criteria. The test objective is to demonstrate the bypass flow characteristics of the valve as a function of the Jet Condensor Inlet Temperature. To accomplish the test objective the pump discharge temperature (TPO) will be varied by adjusting the temperature control (T/C) on the rig heaters. Heat will be rejected by adjusting the cooling rate through the heat … continued below

Description

This test procedure provides a detailed description of the verification methods which shall be used in the developmental program to be conducted on the Kilowatt Isotope Power System (KIPS) Radiator Bypass Valve, to fulfill the requirements of the Ground Demonstration System Design Criteria. The test objective is to demonstrate the bypass flow characteristics of the valve as a function of the Jet Condensor Inlet Temperature. To accomplish the test objective the pump discharge temperature (TPO) will be varied by adjusting the temperature control (T/C) on the rig heaters. Heat will be rejected by adjusting the cooling rate through the heat exchanger. As the Jet Condenser inlet temperature changes, the bypass flow rate and the radiator flow rate will change.
