Design of production test IP-409-A-FP, pilot test of self-supported fuel elements in K size smoothbore zirconium process tubes
Description:
In the Plant Improvement Program, it is proposed to retube the K-Reactors with standard size Zircaloy-2 smooth-bore process tubes and to charge self supported fuel elements starting March 15, 1964. The first step in support of this transition program is to confirm compatibility of the fuel-tube geometry and secondly to obtain fuel-tube performance information prior to full scale commitment of the K-Reactors to this design. In view of the testing of self-supported fuel which has been accomplishe…
