About this file

This document is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Naval Nuclear Laboratory (NNL), operated by Fluor Marine Propulsion (FMP), seeking market research on small scale closed-loop steam generating test capabilities. The RFI outlines requirements for a test loop system that includes an autoclave for steam generation, a condenser for cooling and removing non-condensable gases, and a makeup water tank to replace lost water volume. While not a formal solicitation, the document specifies core system components and optional desirable features such as corrosion-resistant materials, multiple chemical injection and water sampling locations, interchangeable condenser tubes, and the ability to place and monitor corrosion coupons within different system areas. NNL emphasizes that this is purely an informational request and will not reimburse respondents for any costs associated with providing information.

Small Scale Closed Loop Steam Generating Test Capabilities

THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY. THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION.

This notice is issued solely for informational and planning purposes. This notice does not constitute a solicitation. The Naval Nuclear Laboratory (NNL), operated by Fluor Marine Propulsion (FMP), is utilizing this request for information for market research to determine what organizations have the capability to fulfill this requirement. NNL will not be responsible for any costs incurred by interested parties in responding to this request for information.

Scope:

NNL is seeking information on the availability of a small scale closed-loop steam plant system. A desired test loop will include steam generated in an autoclave that will be sent to a condenser where the non-condensable gases are removed, and the steam is cooled back into water. The water from the condenser will then be sent back to the autoclave. Any water volume lost through purging or sampling throughout the loop will be replaced by a makeup water tank. The apparatus must include the general requirements below.

General requirements:

An autoclave

A condenser

A component which removes non-condensable gases

A makeup water tank

The apparatus may also include the following features but is not required.

Components constructed of a corrosion resistant material

Multiple locations where chemicals may be injected into the system

Multiple locations where water samples may be obtained

Interchangeable condenser tubes of different materials

Ability to place and monitor corrosion coupons within the system (e.g., autoclave (steam space and/or water), condenser, and feedwater)
