Compact Control Rod Drive Study For a Boiling Water Reactor in a T7 Tanker

Description: The reason for initiating the compact drive study for the T7 tanker was to investigate control rod drive size, location, and removal space requirement factors and select the control rod drive mechanism which would allow optimization of the over-all size of the containment vessel. Approximately twelve mechanical/hydraulic control rod drive arrangements were considered during this study.

Preoperational Power Stability Analysis of the Consumers Big Rock Point Plant

Description: Summary: An analytical study of the stability of the Big Rock Nuclear Reactor has been performed for the plant as built, and supplements a previous design stability study. The plant has been determined by this analysis to be very stable under every mode of operation anticipated during Phase I of the development program testing. Even under conservative assumptions of system parameters the minimum calculated gain and phase margins do not go below 13.0 db and 46 degrees, respectively. (Nor are … more

Transition Boiling Heat Transfer Program; Fourth Quarterly Progress Report, October - December 1963

Description: Summary: Heat transfer tests employing the two-rod test section without film tripping devices have been completed. Representations defining critical heat flux, transition boiling and film boiling behavior at high pressures and over a steam quality range of 25 to 90 percent are shown. Fabrication of a new observational test section was completed and initial test results with high-speed motion pictures were obtained. A test loop instability which was found to affect transition boiling behavio… more

Transition Boiling Heat Transfer Program; Third Quarterly Progress Report, July - September 1963

Description: Summary: Initial critical heat flux, transition boiling temperature fluctuation, and film boiling coefficient data have been obtained on a two-rod cluster assembly at 1000 psia and 25 to 90 percent steam qualities. A representation showing the range of critical heat flux data is presented. Typical temperature recordings which indicate transition and film boiling behavior are shown. Fabrication of a new high pressure observational test section is nearly complete. An optical table and illuminatio… more

Automatic Exit Steam Quality Control for Boiling Water Reactors

Description: From American Nuclear Society Meeting, New York, Nov. 1963. The need for control of the flow distribution and/or steam quality in boiling reactors is discussed. A quality control device is being developed which consists of an entrance venturi and an exit venturi for measuring the flow rates into and out of the channel, means for comparing the two flow rate signals, and a value for regulating the flow rate. This device can be used either as a constant quality device or as a controlled-quality de… more
