Test Results for Unrestrained Reactor, Gunbarrel-Nozzle Assemblies

Description: These tests were performed in accordance with a letter fran R. C. Breisch to J. R. Spink, May 7, 1962. An unrestrained gunbarrel condition was simulated for each of the standard process tube inlet assemblies for B,C and K type reactors. Primary objects of the testing were to obtain data on movement, pigtail damage, and effect on flow to the process tube in case of a Van Stone flange failure without key restraint of the gunbarrel. All test conditions were relative to actual conditions, but these… more

Nuclear safety criteria for special test loads -- N-Reactor

Description: The initial fuel landing for the N-Reactor and the use of a specific alternative fuel element are described in a previous report. It is highly probable that it will also be desirable in the future to irradiate still other types of fuel elements in the reactor. If the test is of small scale, fever than five channels, or if these elements vary only slightly from the initial fuel load (or any other fuel type approved for large-scale use at some future date), the irradiation will be accomplished wi… more

CPD`s potential for processing the higher transuranics

Description: Hanford`s potential has been evaluated for producing higher transuranic isotopes, particularly curium-242 and curium-244. This document outlines the concepts visualized, and estimates the potential impact on CPD`s development, construction, and production programs. The irradiation program would proceed in 3 steps: production of fuel-grade plutonium, its burning to higher isotopes and alloying with Al for use in one reactor, and the separated americium irradiated to form curium-242. Disposition … more

Status report: Carbon-14 in the condensate from the silica gel dryers of the production reactors

Description: Volatile compounds containing C{sup 14} produced in the cooling gas systems of Hanford reactors can be lost from the cooling gas by two routes. These are (a) escape via the reactor stacks through leaks in the cooling gas system and (b), adsorption with water vapor on the silica gel of the dryers for the cooling gas with subsequent regeneration of the silica gel and condensation of the water for disposal. Information relative to the release rates by the stack gas route was reported in HW-75618. … more

Coincident Trip Pressure Monitors

Description: At your request the Plant pressure monitor scram history for the period covering January 1, 1960, through June 31, 1963, was reviewed to predict the production saving that would result if a reliable pressure monitor dual-trip feature were added to the six old reactors.

Hunt N Peck: A program to perform zone loading calculations on the IBM-7090

Description: Presently, there is no standard technique in use by all assigned physicists to actually calculate required reactor loading changes. Basically, loading changes are made by determining the number of enrichment columns needed for equilibrium operation following startup; this is usually based upon past experience with relatively similar reactor conditions. Selection of locations for placement or removal of the enrichment then involves the application of information gleaned from temperature maps, pr… more
