Study plan for conducting a section 316(a) demonstration: K-Reactor cooling tower, Savannah River Site

Description: The K Reactor at the Savannah River Site (SRS) began operation in 1954. The K-Reactor pumped secondary cooling water from the Savannah River and discharged directly to the Indian Grave Branch, a tributary of Pen Branch which flows to the Savannah River. During earlier operations, the temperature and discharge rates of cooling water from the K-reactor were up to approximately 70{degree}C and 400 cfs, substantially altering the thermal and flow regimes of this stream. These discharges resulted in… more

Chemical and physical processes in Tank 241-SY-101: A preliminary report

Description: Since 1942, chemical and radioactive waste have been stored in underground tanks at the Hanford Site. In March 1981 one of the double shell tanks, 241-SY-101 (called 101-SY), began venting large quantities of gas, primarily hydrogen and nitrous oxide. Because of the potential for explosion Westinghouse Hanford Company and the US Department of Energy realized the need for knowledge about the processes occurring in this tank that lead to generation of the gases. In June 1990, the Pacific Northwes… more

EBR-II (Experimental Breeder Reactor-II) system surveillance using pattern recognition software

Description: The problem of most accurately determining the Experimental Breeder Reactor-II (EBR-II) reactor outlet temperature from currently available plant signals is investigated. Historically, the reactor outlet pipe was originally instrumented with 8 temperature sensors but, during 22 years of operation, all these instruments have failed except for one remaining thermocouple, and its output had recently become suspect. Using pattern recognition methods to compare values of 129 plant signals for simila… more

A probabilistic method for determining effluent temperature limits for flow instability for SRS reactors: Addendum

Description: Previous values used for the uncertainties in the K14.1 limits calculations were based on the best available data at the time. Some of the data was in preliminary form and many assumptions were made. In addition, not all of the calculations made with the previous data were well documented. Because of an increase in both the volume and quality of data, and to verify calculations, revisions to the values for the uncertainties were appropriate. The revised uncertainty values include updated inform… more

Documentation Package for the RFID Temperature Monitoring System (Of Model 9977 Packages at NTS).

Description: The technical basis for extending the Model 9977 shipping package periodic maintenance beyond the one-year interval to a maximum of five years is based on the performance of the O-ring seals and the environmental conditions. The DOE Packaging Certification Program (PCP) has tasked Argonne National Laboratory to develop a Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) temperature monitoring system for use by the facility personnel at DAF/NTS. The RFID temperature monitoring system, depicted in the figure… more

Large-area silicon sheet by EFG. Fourth quarterly report, October 1-December 31, 1980

Description: Extensive characterization of the multiple ribbon Furnace 3A main zone temperature profile has been performed and the information used to improve uniformity of heating. Irregularities in the main zone heater have been associated with growth difficulties at specific cartridge locations, and growth conditions subsequently improved by profiling the main zone heater. This work has resulted in good growth conditions being established in all three cartridge positions. These improvements have allowed … more

Real-Time Temperature Measurement in a Vacuum Degasser Using Optical Pyrometry

Description: The objective of the research was the development of a fiber-coupled, optical pyrometer for continuous temperature measurement in a vacuum degasser that reduces process time, enhances process control, and eliminates manual or robot-operated thermocouples. Through the live testing performed at US Steel's Edgar Thompson Works, the challenges associated with making optical temperature measurements in a vacuum chamber were identified. As a result of these challenges it was determined that continuou… more

Comparison of CCM3 simulations using two climatological ozone data sets

Description: A comparison of two six year simulations with the CCM3 using different monthly mean, zonally symmetric ozone climatologies is presented. Each run was identical except for the ozone specification. The climatological SSTs supplied with CCM3 were cycled for the extent of the simulation. The ozone data sets were used were the data distributed with the CCM3 code and that compiled at SUNY Albany. The SUNYA data set reflects contemporary ozone measurements extensively using remote sensing data. The CC… more

Tracer dye transport from a well fitted with a downhole heat exchanger, Klamath Falls, Oregon

Description: Low or medium temperature geothermal resources are often used for space and domestic hot water heating. If the resource is located at reasonably shallow depths and adjacent to a major population centre large amounts of relatively cheap, clean heat can be provided. Geothermal fluid is often brought to the surface, either under natural artesian pressure or by pumping, to be used in surface heat exchangers (SHEs). This method generally requires a second well for disposal of the cooled fluid and a … more

Parametric thermal evaluations of waste package emplacement

Description: Parametric thermal evaluations of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) waste packages (WPs) emplaced in the potential repository were performed to determine the impact of thermal loading, WP spacing, drift diameter, SNF aging, backfill, and relocation on the design of the Engineered Barrier System. Temperatures in the WP and near-field host rock are key to radionuclide containment, as they directly affect oxidation rates of the metal barriers and the ability of the rock to impede particle movement which mu… more
