Graphite-to-Metal Seal Screening Tests

Description: In the basic design for a two-fluid LMFRE, a seal has to be made between the metal core inlet and the graphite bottom reflector. To evaluate the effectiveness of such a method of sealing, a screening test apparatus was constructed to determine quickly the physical parameters and the best configuration for interface contact

Liquid Metal Fuel Reactor Experiment: Dynamic Utility Test Loop

Description: This report provides an overview of the creation of the Liquid Metal Fuel Reactor Experiment program. It furthers the work by constructing a single loop to test all the components required for the 16 loop reactor. This utility loop was also constructed to provide a facility for testing various components such as valves and flow meters.

Liquid Metal Fuel Reactor Experiment: Preliminary Hazards Evaluation for the Use of Sodium in the BNL Four-Inch Loop

Description: The contemplated use of sodium in place of bismuth in the secondary system of the Four-Inch Loop at Brookhaven National Laboratory requires a re-evaluation of the loops design. This report covers those design changes deemed necessary for safe operation of the system. It also includes an evaluation of the possible hazards involved and methods of coping with them. No attempt is made here to cover the hazards of sodium-bismuth reaction.
