Comment on Temperature-Pressure Equilibrium Between Dispersed and Continuous Phases of a Material

Description: This memo calls attention to the fact that the relationship between equilibrium temperature and the pressures in two phases of a material is {Delta}sdT = {Delta}(vdP) , and not, as now routinely assumed by bubble investigators, the Clausius-Clapeyron equation {Delta}sdT = {Delta}vdP . If one phase is discontinuous (subscript "d") and consists of spheres of radius r in a continuous phase (subscript "c") whose pressure is held constant, then the equilibrium temperature will be… more

Homogeneous Reactor Project Quarterly Progress Report: November 1959-January 1960

Description: From Summary: "The major objective of the run was the investigation of fuel stability. The reactor operated for long periods at the design power of 5 Mw with none of the usual indications of instability while the system pressure was kept at 1250 psig. Run 21 ended on January 22, so that the reason for an abrupt change in the mixing rate of fuel between the core and blanket could be investigated and a reactor steam-system valve could be repaired."

Heat Transfer in Nuclear Reactors

Description: There are various features of heat generation in nuclear reactors which is directly proportional to the rate of fission and proportional to the rate of neutron production. This report reports provides information on various types of heat generation in different nuclear reactors.

The Choice in Thorium Oxide Slurries for the Prevention of Caking in Circulating Systems

Description: A qualitative theory for cake formation in ThO2 slurries is presented. The sphere formation which occurs in "Standard" slurry can be explained on the same basis. The irregular and unpredictable yield strength is easily fitted into the theory. On the basis of this theory, the writer has been led to the conclusion that only colloidally stable slurries, or slurries with crystallites or comminution-resistant particles which are large enough to overcome colloidal effects (probably larger than 0.1u) … more

Slurry and Boiling Reactor Research

Description: Alternative systems to the circulating solution for homogeneous reactors may consist of a circulating slurry, a boiling solution, or a boiling slurry. This quarterly report focuses on three types of uranium trioxide monohydrate.

Boiling and Slurry Progress

Description: Slurry Pumping Studies. Data are reported on the performance of a high pressure slurry circulating system. As a result of test runs, it was concluded that maintenance of slurry concentration in a circulating system at 250° C had not been achieved and that graphitar may be an unsuitable material for long operation in the front bearing of a pump, if slurries are permitted to enter the bearing. Data are included from studies on the formation of UO3 H2O crystals. Boiling Reactor Research. Progress … more
