Fast Reactor Fuel Cycle Costs and Temperature Coefficients of Reactivity for PuO2-SS and PuO2-UO2
Report comparing the fuel cycle costs and temperature coefficients of reactivity for PuO2-UO2 fuel in multiple megawatt reactors.
Irradiation Testing of Enrico Fermi Prototype Fuel Pins in the CP-5, 1957-1959
Report issued by the APDA over studies conducted on the irradiation of fuel pins in nuclear reactors. As stated in the introduction, "results of these tests have verified predicted high-temperature allowable burn-ups and showed that under certain conditions, excessive swelling could occur at low temperatures" (p. 5). This report includes tables, illustrations, and photographs.
Summary of the APDA Fuel Development Programs
Report issued by the APDA over fuel development programs. Designs for fast breeder reactors, safety tests, and methods are presented and discussed. This report includes tables, illustrations, and photographs.
