Half-plant production tests have been used for many years to evaluate changes in water treatment processes. Since some conjecture existed regarding the validity of this test concept, it was decided to employ a tracer element. Bromine was chosen as the tracer element due to its absence in raw water, the short half life of its radionuclides, and its compatibility as a potable water treatment chemical. The parent production test was run for four days, but the scatter in the data indicated equilibrium had not been reached and conclusions could not be made. The test supplement was run for a period of 12 days. This report provides the test data which shows that an average cross flow of 7.6% is experienced, as measured in the reactor rear riser, when a reasonably balanced pumping system is maintained. Operating experiences at D and F Reactors during the early part of 1965 further confirm these facts. Excessive film build-up occurred in both instances on plant halves. A distinct demarkation line was experienced between vertical rows 73 and 74, as measured by front face Panellit pressure increases.
