Study of Requirements and Suitability of Available Reactors for Fast Fuel Tests

Description: Report issued by the APDA over studies conducted on the requirements of reactors for fuel testing. As stated in the summary, "the purpose of this study is to determine the requirements for radiation space for fast reactor fuel testing and to determine the capability of existing Commission and private test and power reactors to meet these requirements" (p. 7). This report includes tables, and illustrations.

LONGITUDINAL RESISTIVE INSTABILITIES OF INTENSE COASTING BEAMS IN PARTICLE ACCELERATORS

Description: The longitudinal electromagnetic interaction of an intense coasting beam with itself, including the effect of a resistive vacuum tank, is investigated theoretically. It is shown that even in the range where the particle frequency is an increasing function of particle energy, the beam can be longitudinally unstable due to the resistivity of the vacuum tank walls. In the absence of frequency spread in the unperturbed beam the beam is shown to be always unstable against longitudinal bunching with … more

Report of invention

Description: This invention discloses a method of making a synthetic nuclear fuel by mixing pure U-233 with U-238 fuels, such as depleted uranium, to produce a fuel that combines the most desirable nuclear properties of both the U-233 and U-238 fertile material. The process requires that U-233 be manufactured in such a manner as to be relatively uncontaminated from U-232. The subject of this invention is a method of fuel handling that incorporates the desirable features of both U-233 and U-238. It is propos… more

Increased coolant flow for H reactor

Description: The purpose of this letter is to outline the immediate and long-range plans for increasing the H Reactor coolant flow. The flow can be increased, immediately from the present base of about 84,000 gpm to about 88,000 gpm via the following changes: routine purges; use of non-bumpered fuel; increasing the flow through Fringe enrichment and Fringe Poison tubes by changing orifices; and reaming damaged rear fittings to their original size. The flow can be increased to about 94,000 gpm via the follow… more

Neutron lifetimes in the Hanford lattices

Description: An important parameter which is required in the study of short-term reactor transients is the prompt neutron lifetime. This document presents calculated values for the prompt neutron lifetime in the Hanford IPD lattices under a variety of conditions. The calculated values for the prompt neutron lifetimes in the various Hanford IPD lattices are shown. None of the values shown include any contribution from the neutron slowing down time. Two different values (1{sub o1} and 1{sub o2}) are presented… more

SIZCAN: A Fortran code to aid in sizing cylindrical or annular fission product containers

Description: The problem of designing storage containers for heat-generating fission products or radioactive wastes is complicated by the interdependence of a number of variables. The permissible maximum surface temperatures and internal temperature; the concentration, age, and type of isotope; the thermal conductivity of the materials, the ambient temperatures, the configuration (annular or cylindrical) of the container; and the mechanism of heat removal, all affect the design of the container 4-n that the… more
