Hot Wire Needle Probe for In-Pile Thermal Conductivity Detection

Description: Thermal conductivity is a key property of interest for both nuclear fuel and structural materials, and must be known for proper design, test, and application of new fuels and structural materials in nuclear reactors. Thermal conductivity is highly dependent on the physical structure, chemical composition, and the state of the material. Typically, thermal conductivity changes that occur during irradiation are measured out-of-pile by Post Irradiated Examination (PIE) using a “cook and look” appro… more

MCNPX vs Handbook Calculations for Radiation Streaming in the SNS Target Carriage

Description: The movable carriage has been designed to support the mercury target in the Spallation Neutron Source in a cantilevered fashion, and to supply the mercury flowing to and from the target. As a part of design process, the fluxes and dose rates in the hot cell downstream of the carriage have been analyzed. The transport of radiation from the proton beam, which hits the mercury target, to the hot cell downstream of the carriage is a specific task that includes solving of both deep penetration and s… more

Systems Requirement Document for the MSRE U-233 Conversion System

Description: The fissile material reclamation activities for the MSRE remediation project include the removal and recovery of uranium from the off-gas system, from the stored fuel salt, and finally, from the uranium-laden charcoal in the Auxiliary Charcoal Bed (ACB). Each of these operations produces an uranium/fluoride compound that is not suitable for long-term storage. The uranium-fluoride compounds can be stored for a limited period of time in pressure vessels. The interim-storage vessels are designed t… more

Laser Cutting and Size Reduction. Innovative Technology Summary Report

Description: The project utilizes a Neodymium Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Nd:YAG) laser to cut and size reduce equipment in the 324 Laboratory B Hot Cell located at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. This project will demonstrate the ability of the Nd:Yag laser to remotely and safely dismantle equipment faster, cheaper, and more efficiently than baseline cutting methods, such as the plasma torch and the water knife, in a highly radioactive area using fiber optics.
