Mechanical properties of crystalline solids. Progress report, December 1, 1975--November 30, 1976

Description: The deformation model for non-elastic deformation in the grain matrix based on a mechanical equation of state was verified by comparing the predictions of the model with experimental data. The data of Type 316 stainless steel and nickel were used and were obtained in load relaxation and anelasticity tests. The same model was found to be successful in describing in-reactor creep and deformation. Work is in progress on the investigation of the driving force and the kinetics of stress induced cavi… more

Evaluation of the Cryofit tube joining system in selected plutonium chemical processing solutions

Description: The Ni-Ti alloy Cryofit joining system has been evaluated for corrosion resistance to selected solutions encountered in the chemical processing of plutonium. Results indicated the Cryofit system has useful resistance to Al(NO/ sub 3/)/sub 3/, H/sub 2/C/sub 2/O/sub 4/, KOH, and very dilute H/sub 2/SO/sub 4/. The Cryofit system is not suitable for HNO/sub 3/ serv ice or for NH/sub 4/SCN service when used with 304 stainless steel. The Cryofit tube fitting system provides a means of connecting tube… more

Evaporative removal of sodium: interim progress report and preliminary facility specification

Description: A summary of the current Evaporative Removal of Sodium (ERNA) activities at the Energy Systems Group is presented. Also included is a review of earlier work on sodium evaporation. As a result of this work it was concluded that the ERNA process was extremely successful and worthy of future consideration as a recognized process for reactor components. Also included in the report is a Preliminary Outline Specification for a large facility to remove sodium from full size CRBR fuel rod assemblies.
