Preliminary Report: 300 KWe Capsule Nuclear Power Plant Study

Description: This report describes progress made in the study of the feasibility of the concept, plant arrangement studies, and considerations pertaining to partial plant attendance. It is concluded that both the indirect and direct boiling cycles are feasible. The recommended reference design is the direct cycle, in a single capsule, with the turbine, generator and pumps on a single shaft.

The Half-Life and Gamma Ray Abundance of Cs-137

Description: The nuclide Cs-137 is a fission product commonly used for measurement of uranium burnup in irradiated uranium fuel by the fission product to uranium ratio method. In the application of this method, the largest single error introduced in the measurement of burnup is the uncertainty in the half-life of Cs-137. Because of the uncertainty in this value and its importance in nuclear fuel burnup analysis, a reinvestigation was undertaken to obtain a more accurate value using the mass spectrometric me… more

Resonance Integral Calculations for Evaluation of Doppler Coefficients: The Rapture Code

Description: A code (RAPTURE) was programmed for the Philco TRANSAC 2000 computer to perform calculations needed for the evaluation of Doppler Coefficients in fast reactors with degraded neuron spectra. This code computes resonance integrals, averages them over resonance parameter distributions, and computes fission and capture cross sections as a function of fuel temperature and of potential scattering cross section per absorber isotope.
