Operating Manual for the Argonaut Reactor

Description: The design of the Argonaut (Argonne Nuclear Assembly for University Training) was initiated by the Reactor Engineering Division of Argonne National Laboratory to satisfy needs for a low-power reactor facility within the Laboratory, and for training uses within the international School of Nuclear Science and Engineering (ISNSE). It was intended primarily for instruction and research in reactor physics. It was also considered as a possibility that it would fulfill the requirements of universities… more

An Improved Continuous Ether Extractor for the Determination of Uranium in Dissolver Solutions

Description: An improved continuous ether extractor is described. The modifications include a means of safely disposing of the active raffinate and a means of positivity checking the raffinate for completeness of uranium extraction. The results obtained on synthetic samples and on dissolver solutions are given. This work was undertaken because of a need for the determination of uranium in dissolver solutions with an accuracy of 0.1 per cent. After a review of available methods it was decided that a gravimet… more

Roll Cladding of Uranium-Niobium Alloys for Plate Type Fuel Elements

Description: The feasibility of cladding plate type, corrosion resistant uranium-niobium fuel elements with Zircaloy-II by roll bonding has been demonstrated. Plates with cores of uranium alloyed with 3 w/o and 6 w/o Nb intended for irradiation testing in a high temperature water test loop in the MTR have been finished withing specified tolerances. The preparation of cladding billet core and clad components and the assembly of billets by enclosing cores in welded Zircaloy-II jackets can be readily accomplis… more

Comparative Analysis of ANL High Purity Uranium

Description: In the course of the development at Argonne of high purity uranium metal in ingot form, some questions arose as to the validity of the chemical analyses of some of the impurities (particularly those for carbon, boron, and silicon), with one analytical laboratory reporting concentrations in some instances of an order of magnitude greater than another laboratory. Since the low concentrations of impurities in this material involved, in some cases, the development of modified analytical procedures … more

Corrosion and Stability Tests on Chemical Poisons in Higher-Temperature Water

Description: Corrosion-stability tests have been made in static autoclaves at 500 and 600F on solutions of compounds having high neutron cross sections to evaluate their usefulness for shutdown purposes. The only compound tested which appeared to be completely stable in 600F water was boric acid. Limited corrosion data did not show it to cause excessive corrosion of zirconium or stainless steel.
