PLUTONIUM OXALATE DISK FILTER AND FILTER MEDIA STUDIES

Description: for filtration of plutonium oxalate slurries. A scalpel produces a slit in the filter precoat, leading to increased filtration in this slit, and the oxalate is removed by a doctor knife; this technique results in prolonged blowback cycles and more uniform delivery of filtered oxalate to subsequent processing steps. Several types of filter media were tested, and rigid porous aluminum oxide was found to be the best one. (D.L.C.)

Reactor Materials Study. Research and Development of Metal Hydrides. Quarterly Report No. 4 for July 1, 1959 to September 30, 1959

Description: Activities during the period were directed primarily toward determination of the engineering properties of hydrided materials. The tensile strength and elongation, thermal expansion, thermal conductivity, and heat capacity of ZrH were determined as functions of temperature and H content. Preliminary results of Ti-base material studies indicate that these materials can be used for shielding and structural materials with the incorporation of rare earth hydrides. A summary of the work from Oct. l9… more

PT-IP-280-A-FP, irradiation of alloyed dingot uranium fuel elements

Description: The objective of this test is to authorize irradiation of pilot quantities of alloyed dingot uranium and to provide for monitoring of its performance. This test will authorize: (a) Charging of up to 50 tons of alloyed dingot fuel elements in two groups of 25 tons each, including 12 monitor charges which will accompany the first group, into D Reactor as a pilot loading. Although purer and ore dense than standard ingot uranium, the dingot uranium produced in the past by MCW has demonstrated poore… more

Production test IP-289-I H Reactor process pump trip-out-test

Description: The objectives of this test are to obtain a current knowledge of the H Reactor flow system characteristics under various transient conditions which have a reasonable probability of occurrence. The test data will be used to revaluate: (1) the H Reactor bulk effluent temperature limits, (2) the margin between the Ball 3X riser pressure trip settings, and (3) the quantitative adequacy of emergency flow available from the combined high tanks export system. This test will consist of two parts: (a) M… more

Post irradiation examination of KER-1-3 seven rod cluster fuel elements (RM-277)

Description: Two coextruded, Zr-2 clad, natural uranium, seven rod cluster fuel elements were irradiated to a calculated exposure of 1250 MWD/T in the KER Facility and discharged 1-16-59. The fuel elements were NPR candidate fuel and examination was requested to determine the behavior of coextruded, Zr-2 clad, natural uranium irradiated at core temperatures of approximtely 425{degree}C. The elements were transferred to the Radiometallurgy Laboratory 2-25-59. The elements demonstrated excellent in reactor pe… more

Supplement C to Production Test IP-250-A, Irradiation of Zircaloy-2 jacketed tube and tube elements in the KER loop

Description: The objective of this Supplement described in this report to Pt-IP-250-A is to d enriched tube-and-tube elements will develop pitting corrosion on the Zircaloy-2 jackets when irradiated in pH 10 water. The measurement of dimensional changes in the fuel elements and the observation of the effect of irradiation on the uranium and bond area are also objectives of the test, but secondary in importance to identifying a pitting corrosion problem in NPR quality water, if one exists.
