This paper presents a pilot study of using probabilistic fracture mechanics codes (PRO-LOCA 2009 and WinPRAISE 2007) to estimate the rupture frequency of CANDU® large diameter Primary Heat Transport (PHT) piping. The results of this study show that WinPRAISE 2007 and PRO-LOCA 2009 produce comparable trends for the predicted probability of leak and probability of large break leak. There is a number of sensitive leak detection methods available in CANDU plants. The materials and quality of fabrication and sensitive leak detection results in the total probability of a large break leak in the large diameter PHT piping welds being estimated to be on the order of 1E−8 breaks per plant per year. The results of the pilot study indicate that probabilistic fracture mechanics codes could be used to demonstrate that a shutdown action limit of 100 kg/h is sufficient to ensure the probability of rupture of large diameter PHT piping welds is extremely low.

The TUCAN (TRIUMF Ultra-Cold Advanced Neutron) collaboration has been developing a source of high-intensity ultra-cold neutrons for use in a neutron electric dipole search. The source is composed of a spallation neutron source and a superfluid helium ultra-cold neutron converter, surrounded by a cold moderator. The temperature of the superfluid helium needs to be maintained at approximately 1.0 K to suppress up-scattering by phonons. The Kapitza conductance and the heat transport by the superfluid helium are key parameters which need to be well characterized. We have therefore investigated them in first experiments. Current efforts are directed at optimizing the design of the helium cryostat.

In narrow channels (~10?4 cm) the observed heat transport is considerably larger than calculated by the internal convection theory. It is suggested that, because of the anisotropy of the distribution cf phonons in the channel walls resulting from the temperature gradient, the normal fluid in the immediate vicinity of the walls is not at rest but flows towards the colder region. The magnitude of the resulting heat transport is in reasonable agreement with the observed discrepancy.
