- Increase in steam flow (i.e., Pressure lowers, bubbles expand)
After a prolonged period of SF and FF mismatch where will SG water levels ultimately settle out (assuming no operator actions or automatic actions occur) AND why does this happen
- 43.8 % BECAUSE SGWLC is level dominate
- Valves will move to reduce error but level will ultimately override error signal
