From introduction: "This report has been prepared in conjunction with the Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor (LMFBR) Follow-On Study. It is the Concept I description of Task I as outlined by Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) in Appendix C of their Follow-On Study Program."
A monthly report summarizing work perform by Babcock & Wilcox personnel for the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. In this monthly report information on the reactor design No. 10 had been selected as the LMFRE preliminary reference design, various shielding designs have bee studied, various calculations on multiregion code and reactivity have been continued, and other related to the LMFRE
The Babcock and Wilcox Company (B&W) proposes to construct and operate a Nuclear Test Reactor on the grounds of the Company's integrated nuclear facilities site, Mt. Athos, near Lynchburg, Virginia. This preliminary Summary Hazards Report present to the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC), Division of Licensing and Regulations, a description of the facility, the characteristics of the proposed site, and an evaluation of potential hazards to the area surrounding the site of operation.
The purpose of this report is to describe the shielding calculations and techniques used in sizing the MMSR primary shield, the results obtained, and the resulting shield thicknesses. The present report covers many of the items scheduled for presentation in the final MMSR shield design report to be issued in November of 1958. The primary shield in the MMSR consists of the reflector, thermal shields, pressure vessel wall, a 33" water annulus and a layer of lead shielding at the exterior of the primary shield tank vary from 3" to 1" in thickness.
