A Device for Continuous Detection of Hydrogen in Sodium (open access)

A Device for Continuous Detection of Hydrogen in Sodium

Abstract: A device to detect the presence of hydrogen in sodium has been developed. Such a device, installed in a sodium heated steam generator, would signal the presence of water in the sodium resulting from a leak in the sodium-water barrier.
