The Fusion Aerosol Source Test (FAST) facility has been constructed to produce and measure aerosol material from 316 SS under a wide range of accident conditions. Details of the design and fabrication of the facility are presented including aerosol production and measurement equipment, effluent control, and data analysis. Preliminary testing has been completed and results from these preliminary tests are presented.
