The following data represents processing conditions used in fabricating prototypic (except for supports) natural and enriched NPR inner fuel elements for Production Test 377. The prototypic NPR inner fuel elements were inserted into zircaloy-sleeves prior to charging. In this way it was possible to simulate, in the KER loops, the conditions under which NPR fuel elements would be subjected under irradiation. The purpose in documenting the data is to provide a permanent record of processing conditions and dimensions which may be referred to for post irradiation analysis and possible future process development work. Post irradiation results will be issued by …

Description
The following data represents processing conditions used in fabricating prototypic (except for supports) natural and enriched NPR inner fuel elements for Production Test 377. The prototypic NPR inner fuel elements were inserted into zircaloy-sleeves prior to charging. In this way it was possible to simulate, in the KER loops, the conditions under which NPR fuel elements would be subjected under irradiation. The purpose in documenting the data is to provide a permanent record of processing conditions and dimensions which may be referred to for post irradiation analysis and possible future process development work. Post irradiation results will be issued by the Fuels Development Operation, Hanford Laboratories Operation, and the test loop operating conditions will be issued by Process and Reactor Development Operation, Irradiation Processing Department, as outlined in the Production Test Procedure.
