Design and Feasibility Study of a Pebble Bed Reactor-Steam Power Plant

Description: Originally issued as S and P 1963A, Parts I and II. A design and feasibility study of a pebble bed reactorsteam power plant is presented, The reactor design which evolved from this study is a 125 Mwe heliumcooled two-region thermal breeder, operating on the uranium-thorium cycle, in which all core structural materials are graphite. Fuel is in the form of unclad spherical elements of graphite, containing fissile and fertile material. The primary loop consists of the reactor plus three steam gene… more

SN-1 Research and Development Program Interim Report No. 2 on Core Measurements. Task No. VII

Description: Physics experiments were performed on the SM-1 core. Measurements were made on five rod bank positions and rod calibrations. The reactivity effects of core modifications were investigated. Modifications to the core included replacement of the boron absorbers in rods 1, 2, 3, 4 and C with europium absorbers; replacement of a control rod fuel element with one containing an integral europium flux suppressor; and replacement of a stationary fuel element. Additional experiments were designed to dete… more
