Quarterly Progress Report for the Period January 1, 1958 to March 31, 1958

Description: Abbreviated press feed preparations of UO/sub 2/ powder appear suitable for the automatic pressing of pellets on a production scale. Progress was made in achieving compartment uniformity in disc-compartmented stretch-formed fuel tubes and controlling the free space for pellet expansion within the compartments. The designs for additional in-pile and out-of-pile test specimens were completed. A reference control rod program was developed on the basis of outside-in'' rod withdrawal in order to app… more

Engineering Parameters for Four Ignition TNS Tokamak Reactor Systems

Description: The ORNL/Westinghouse program for The Next Step (TNS) tokamak beyond TFTR has examined a large number of potential configurations for D-T burning ignition tokamak systems. An objective of this work has been to quantify the trade-offs associated with the assumption of certain plasma physics criteria and toroidal field coil technologies. Four tokamak system point designs are described, each representative of the TF coil technologies considered, to illustrate the engineering features associated wi… more
