Electromagnetic Research Division Quarterly Progress Report, Part I for Period Ending June 30, 1952

Description: From abstract: "On the 86-inch cyclotron a 41-kw beam has been calorimetered at a net ion loading efficiency of 40%; the average proton current was 1.85 ma at 22.5 Mev. Practical specific yields have been determined for (p,2n) reactions on zinc and bismuth. The investigation of products of proton-induced fission of uranium has been continued and new techniques are being used in measuring angular distribution of reaction products. The 63-inch heavy particle cyclotron is now in operation; N+++ pa… more

A Fluoride Fuel In-Pile Loop Experiment

Description: An inconel loop circulating fluoride fuel (62 1/2 make [unintelligible] NaF, 12 1/2 make [unintelligible] ZrF4, 25 make [unintelligible] UF4, 92 [unintelligible] enriched) was operated at 1485°F with a temperature difference of about 35°F in the Low Intensity Test Reactor for 645 hr. For 475 hr of this time the reactor was at full power, and fission power generation in the loop was 2.7 kw, with a max length power density of 0.4 kw/cc. The total volume of fuel was 1290 cc (5.o kg [unintelligible… more

High-Thermal-Conductivity Fin Material for Radiators

Description: This report is the result of a study to develop heat-resistant fin materials possessing a high thermal conductivity for air radiators. Since an economical and commercially feasible product was desired, the investigation was restricted primarily to a study of electroplated copper, clad copper, and copper alloys. Sheet material 0.008 to 0.010 in. thick was evaluated for fabricability and for metallurgical stability and thermal conductivity at 1500°F. From the results of the rests it was concluded… more

Uranium-235 Abundance by Gamma Spectrometry

Description: Techniques are described for determining U-235 abundance by measurement of the intensity of 0.18 Mev gamma radiation. One method involves measurement of the ratio of the intensity of 0.18-Mev radiation to that of 0.1 Mev radiation. The preferred technique consists of chemical separation of uranium followed by direct counting of 0.18-Mev photons. Application has been made in analysis of uranium samples of abundances in the range of 0.05% to 93%. Accuracy appears to be better than 3% if the abund… more

Extraction of the elements with Tris-2-Ethylhexyl- and Trihexylphosphine oxides from Acidic Solutions

Description: This technical report is the second of a series which concerns the separation of ions by solvent extraction with trialkyl phosphine oxides (TOPO). This investigation has consisted in the extraction of various ions from acidic solutions with extractants that are representative of these ore specific phosphine oxides - triphenylphosphine oxide (THPO) and tris-2-ethylhexylphosihine oxides (TEHPO). In general it is observed that: (a) the order of increasing capacity of extraction is THPO > TOPO >TEH… more

High Pressure Flange Studies

Description: Twenty-five hundred psi ring-type flanges, ring gaskets, bolts, and special connectors were tested for adaptability to the aqueous homogenous reactor. High pressure line closures were studied to obtain empirical data pertinent to the selection or design of a connector capable of withstanding sustained thermal cycling and high pressures encountered in the aqueous homogenous reactor. Specialized stress-strain measurement techniques yielded information concerning flange deformation, ring type gask… more

Carbon Steel in High Temperature Water

Description: Resistance of carbon steel to corrosion in oxygenated high-temperature (250C) water was unexpectedly good at high oxygen concentration. Pertinent literature, critically examined, and toroid experiments indicted that at low oxygen concentration attack did increase with concentration, but as oxygen concentration was sufficiently increased, more protective films were formed on the metal. Some corrosion factors in the application of carbon steel to nuclear reactors systems are discussed.

The HRT Refrigerating System

Description: The HRT refrigeration system was designed to use Freon-11 (CCI3F) as the refrigerant material in the secondary loop. A Van de Graaff irradiation of this material indicated that serious corrosion problems were probable if Freon were used in the proposed metal system. A survey was made of candidate refrigerants, and Amsco 125-82 and triethyl phosphate were selected for irradiation and physical-property determinations.

APPR-1 Type Absorber Rod Irradiation Test -- Irradiation Request ORNL MTR-29

Description: In order to evaluate the behavior of an APPR type absorber rod, an irradiation test program has been established. Approximately 21 more samples are planned for testing under this request. The request proposes testing a full size APPR-1 type control rod in the MTR. The objective of the test is to better evaluate the neutron absorbing material proposed for the APPR-1 control rod.

Calculation of Shield Induced Gamma Radiation Escaping Through Openings in a Biological Shield -- Application to the HRT

Description: A method was developed for calculating shield induced gamma radiation escaping through openings in a biological shield. The method was applied to the HRT and the results indicated that the contribution to the dose from induced activity in the HRT shield was around 0.1 r/hr and was insignificant in comparison to to other mechanisms contributing to the escape of gamma rays through shield openings.

Examination of 6" Diameter "O" Ring from HRT Mockup. Metallography Report (Y-12) No. 39

Description: A six-inch diameter "O" ring from the HRT Mockup was examined metallographically after 2452 hours exposure to uranyl sulfate solution at 300C. surface defects, except for cold work defects were found only in areas exposed to uranyl sulfates. Defects found were pits, transgranular cracks, surface cracks, and grain attacks.
