Thoria target element failures

Description: The thoria program at Hanford was initiated in response to an order placed by the Atomic Energy Commission for the production of uranium-233 from the irradiation of thorium or thorium oxide (thoria). The initial orders called for approximately 130 kg U-233 and subsequent orders have since increased this figure. This report provides a brief history of the thoria program, an analysis of the thoria target element failures which occurred during the irradiation phase, and the significant changes in … more

Probability of film boiling burnout

Description: The power of some SRP fuel assemblies is limited by the burnout safety factor (BOSF) in some applications. This power limitation is unnecessarily restrictive, because the current conservatism in predicting film boiling burnout is unusually large compared to that in predicting unstable flow in fuel assemblies. In the past, most SRP fuel assemblies operated at the flow instability limit and were far enough removed from burnout that a convenient and very conservative burnout limit system could be … more

Preliminary design specifications for the compact weapon effects display system

Description: This report provides preliminary design and specification information to fabricate a compact Weapons Effects Display System. The system is capable of calculating and displaying the effects of thermal flux, radiation, and blast pressure from a nuclear weapon. EG&G was asked to evaluate analog computer logic of an existing Weapons Effects Display System (WEDS), make the necessary changes and develop preliminary specifications to fabricate a more compacted system. Also included was to design any n… more
