EURISOL-DS METEX: Post-processing of the experimental data: Test matrix, Pre-calculations, Data Recording and Mining, Statistical and Advance Data Analysis

Abstract

At its first stage, the hydraulic and structural test of the EURISOL target mock-up, named METEX1 (MErcury Target EXperiment 1), accompanied by extended thermal-hydraulic and structural computational studies, have been carefully planned and prepared at PSI (PaulScherrer Institut). The experiment will be performed by PSI on the adopted IPUL-loop in June, 2008 at IPUL, Riga, Latvia.The main objective of this document is to give a brief overview of the following: the test matrixaccompanied by computational results, the procedures and methods, which are to be used fordata acquisition, signal post-processing and validation of the computational methods
