Hazards Summary Report on the Juggernaut Reactor

Description: The Juggernaut is a light-water-cooled and moderated, graphite- reflected, heterogeneous thermal reactor designed to provide experimental facilities for conducting basic research in the neutron flux range to 4 x l0 n/cm/ sec at an operating power level of 250 kw(t). Pertinent design and operating characteristics are tabulated. Evaluations are made for potential hazards posed by certain hypothetical major accidents during the operation, and the adequacy of the safeguards provided to insure that … more

Fuel canister and blockage pin fabrication for SLSF Experiment P4. [LMFBR]

Description: As part of its fast breeder reactor safety research program, Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) has conducted an experiment (SLSF Experiment P4) to determine the extent of fuel-failure propagation resulting from the release of molten fuel from one or more heat-generating fuel canisters. The test conditions consisted of 37 full-length FTR fuel pins operating at FTR rated core nominal peak fuel/reduced coolant conditions. Thirty-four of the the fuel pins were prototypical FTR mixed-oxide fuel pins… more
