Effect of Explosive Impacting on Uranium

Description: Abstract: The tensile and yield strengths of both cast and wrought uranium discs were substantially increased by explosively impacting them at room temperature and at 375 deg F. However, the room-temperature impacting caused gross damage in the cast material and slight internal damage in the wrought material at the highest impacting pressures. Impacting at 375 deg F, which is just above the brittle-ductile transition temperature for uranium, was the most effective method for increasing the stre… more

Thermo-physics technical note No. 37: SNAP- 10A, Stainless Steel-316 vessel wall ablation. Final report

Description: The altitudes and times of ablation have been determined for the SNAP-10A, SS-316 vessel wall reentering under various conditions. The results are confined to one typical location on the reactor and to one typical reentry trajectory. The location is the side wall of the vessel and the trajectory is the one used in NAA-SR-8303.

EG&G Rover progress report for 1-31 January 1964. Report No. L-64

Description: This report describes EG&G activities in support of the Rover Program for the month of January, 1964. Details are discussed in succeeding sections and in the appendices with respect to the various tasks included in our scope of work. At Test Cell A., the Facility Mapping Test, EP-IV, was success- fully completed. Preparation continued for the NRX-AL program scheduled for February, 1964. At Test Cell C., a high flow acoustics test, EP- 1, was conducted. This was the last experimental plan to be … more

Outline: N-Reactor capability report

Description: The flexibility of N-Reactor will be demonstrated by comparing (in tabular form) the basic 4000 Mw Pu-only, weapons grade case with a 4800 Mw co-product, weapons grade mode including production of Po-210 and PU-238. The competitive position of N-Reactor in the AEC complex will be illustrated in a table summarizing 1964 production studies.

Fabrication and Properties of Copper-Boron Carbide Control Materials for Phoebus II Reactor

Description: The Phoebus II Reactor required a neutron absorber material for criticality control and a neutron poison material for reducing the flux peak at the forward end of the fuel element. Normal B{sub 4}C was chosen for the neutron absorbing material, and Cu was employed as the matrix.A feasibility study developed procedures for producijg uniform, dense, stable sheet material of Cu-20, 40, and 50 v/o normal B{sub 4}C. The procedures were, with only slight modifications, translated to production operat… more
