The design of the test stand is centered on the pump sizes required for  a  200  Mw(t)  MSBE. However, with minor modifications, it will be capable of accommodating pumps ranging in flow capacity fron  50%  smaller to  50%  larger than the  MSBE  pumps. The heat removal, salt flow, and electric power capabilities will be oversized to provide this flexibility. Adequate structural allowances will also be provided to obtain this flexibility.
