Study on the formation mechanism and pressure oscillation characteristic of condensation-induced water hammer in the residual heat removal system under ocean heaving motion

Puntos clave

• Pressure oscillation characteristics indicate significant phenomena in the residual heat removal system.
• Findings show that condensation-induced water hammer can lead to various pressure variations observed during the tests.
• Assessment using a detailed experimental setup simulating ocean heaving motion enhances understanding of condensation mechanisms.
• Implications highlight the need for improved engineering designs to mitigate the effects of pressure oscillations in similar environments.
