Embodiment Construction
[0017]The present invention relates to a mechanism tier supporting the tubes of a steam generator to prevent vibration, and, more particularly, the present invention relates to steam generator anti-vibration bars housing instrumentation to provide on-line condition monitoring of a series of individual steam generator tubes, and conditions between those tubes, without negatively impacting primary or secondary side steam generator conditions.
[0018]FIG. 2 shows an apparatus 10 of the present invention. The apparatus 10 stabilizes tubes within a tube bundle of a heat transfer device such as a pressurized water reactor steam generator. A plurality of AVBs 1 extend from outside the tube U-bend portion of the tube bundle into tube lanes between adjacent tubes so as to resist flow-induced vibration of the tubes. Ends of the AVBs are connected by retaining bars 3 that extend substantially perpendicularly to the AVBs. The retaining bars 3 are coupled to bridges 2 that are arranged substantial...
