Effects of Preferred Orientation and Grain Size On Dimensional Stability of Uranium on Thermal Cycling and Irradiation : Final Report -- Metallurgy Program 5.1.7

Description: The growth of alpha-rolled uranium rods on thermal cycling has been shown to depend on both preferred orientation and grain size. Preferred orientation appears to be a necessary condition for growth to occur; the extent of the growth depends upon the sharpness and type of texture developed and on the grain size. The highest growth rates occur in specimens with highly developed textures coupled with small grain sizes. The growth rates increase with cycling level, particularly in specimens of lar… more

Recovery of Uranium From Ore Concentrates

Description: The use of bromine trifluoride solution has been investigated for the preparation of purified uranium hexafluoride from ore concentrates. The best yields were obtained with the use of antimony pentafluoride solutions in bromine trifluoride, and less fluorine was consumed in the case of previously hydro fluorinated samples. This approach appears to be technologically sound and may prove economically superior to existing procedures in the case of newly constructed facilities.

Casting of Blanket Bricks, Ring, Plug, and Control Rods for the Experimental Breeder Reactor (CP-4)

Description: The cup assembly of the Experimental Breeder Reactor (EBR) consists of blanket bricks, inner rings, and safety plug, all of natural uranium. The design of the finish machined brick is shown in Figure 1. These pie shaped bricks when stacked together, 12 bricks arranged in circular form and stacked seven rings high, comprise the cylindrical portion of the outer blanket, 17.875" I.D. x 30.875" O.D. after machining and canning. The inner ring, which is shown in Figure 2, fits inside the bottom laye… more

Chemical Engineering Division Summary Report October, November, and December, 1956

Description: A final series of runs was made in a four-inch continuous-flow mixing chamber to study the transfer of isobutanol into water and nitrobenzene into ethylene glycol. Satisfactory techniques were developed to provide for the rapid analysis of these systems. In addition, a light-scattering correlation was prepared to provide a measure of the interfacial area of the yellow-colored nitrobenzene-ethylene glycol mixtures.

Summary of Conference on the Toxicity of Carbon 14 Held at Argonne National Laboratory, January 15-16, 1952

Description: Report issued by the Argonne National Laboratory discussing the Conference on the Toxicity of Carbon 14. At the outset of the meeting it was emphasized that the group was brought together to discuss work which had a bearing on the toxicity of C14 compounds used either clinically or industrially, and the hope was expressed that the group might be able to reach some conclusions on these matters. This report includes tables.

Summary Report of the Hazards of the Internal Exponential Experiment (ZPR-V)

Description: The Internal exponential Exponential Experiment (ZPR-V) will be constructed by loading up to 49 of the fuel cans, containing up to 155 kg of U235, of the present Fast Exponential Experiment in a 22-in. square iron tank, surrounded by an annular thermal region of fully enriched light water lattice 10 to 15 cm thick. This assembly will be placed in a 5-ft diameter tank which will, in turn, be located in the 10-ft diameter ZPR-II tank, the annular space between the outer tanks containing water for… more
