Design and Test of a Diaphragm Pump for Liquid Metals

Description: Technical report. From Abstract : "Details are provided on the construction and operation of a two-stage diaphragm pump successfully used for the first time in liquid metal service. From the results of 5,376 hr. test of the pump it was concluded that it is well suited to the pumping of liquid metals at low flow rates where pulsating flow can be tolerated and also where remote operation is required. Operating temperatures and pressures are limited only by the availability of suitable materials o… more

Production test IP-582-D, Irradiation of depleted uranium in the KW Snout Facilities, HAPO-275

Description: The objective of this test is to produce 50 milligrams of neptunium 239 for a process stream study in the Purex plant. The efficient recovery of neptunium 237 as an alternate product produced at HAPO is presently impaired by the lack of knowledge of the distribution of neptunium 237 in the several Purex process streams. Present methods of following the neptunium 237 through the process streams involves inadequate alpha counting techniques. However, neptunium 239, because of its discrete gamma d… more

Supplement A to PT-IP-572-A effect of eccentricity on the irradiation behavior of KVNS fuel elements

Description: With the use of smooth-bore Zircaloy-2 process tubes and self- supported fuel elements on a large scale at the K Reactors, establishment of the operating characteristics of this fuel element-process tube configuration is imperative. Under authority of Production Test-IP-409-A, two smooth-bore Zircaloy-2 tubes were routinely charged with KVNS fuel elements. Approximately 520 KVNS fuel elements have been irradiated in this facility. In Production Test-IP-572-A, the coolant temperature distributio… more
