Observed Heat Transfer In HRT Fuel And Blanket Heat Exchangers

Description: Data obtained during power operation of the HRT indicates that during the circulation of fuel solution at high temperatures for more than 260 days there was a small increase in heat transfer resistance in the heat exchangers. The change in heat transfer correlates with the increase of the amount of corrosion product solids in the reactor fuel system.

Curves For Computation of Kinetic Isotope Effects

Description: Curves are provided for rapid estimation of k*/k from the measured value of the percent of the labeled substrate converted and the measured molar radioactivity of I accumulated labeled product, II residual labeled substrate, or III a small increment of product. These curves are applicable to calculation of kinetic isotope effects due to isotopic substitution of elements other than hydrogen.

Effect of Different Sets of Cross-Sections on Cf-252 Production in the HFIR

Description: Production rates of Cf-252 calculated from neutron cross sections compiled at Berkeley, KAPL and Argonne were compared with that calculated in CF-59-8-125. In the range of interest, the maximum difference was about a factor of three.

Reaction Cross Sections Using the Statistical Model of the Compound Nucleus

Description: The inelastic scattering of neutrons was considered by Hauser and Feshbach and a reaction cross section formula was obtained for the process. The analysis in this paper will be concerned with the minor changes involved when competition from other processes and the possibility of particles other than neutrons as incident and emergent particles are included.

Radiation Functions For The (n, 2n) Reactions In Ge, Sc, As, Tl, And Ni*

Description: In the high energy region neutrons can be expected to induce the (n, 2n) reaction. In some cases the residual nucleus will have a radioactivity which can be counted. The dependence of the yield of the reaction on the incident neutron energy is of interest, and has been determined for a number of isotopes.

Free-Free Gaunt Factors

Description: The hydrogenic (unscreened coulomb) free-free gaunt factors are computed for a wide range of initial energies and photon frequencies. In addition, an average over initial energies with the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution is performed to give the temperature-average gaunt factors for use on opacity calculations. The relation between these gaunt factors and the rate of bremsstrahlung energy product is given as is the total energy emitted.

Final Progress Report for December 16, 1957 - August 31, 1958

Description: "Implications of the flndings are summarized from a 9-year study on the adaptive values of experimental populations of Drosophila melanogaster. Emphasis was placed on genetic changes and adaptive values in populations under irradiation. The relative fitness of irradiated and non-irradiated populations was also investigated. Two alternative models for the genetic structure of Mendelian populations are considered. Contradictions between expected and observed results led to the proposal of the alt… more

Nuclear Instrumentation Operation During Plant Operation. Section I. First Performance. Core I, Seed 1. Test Results DL-S-309, RNI-41

Description: The purpose of the test was to evaluate the operation of the Nuclear Instrumentation Power Range Amplifier during start up. While the station was operating at a gross load of 16.5 megawatts, a variation of 0, 8.5, 2.7 and 4.4 existed between the compensated ion chamber currents (CIC) and the test currents for channels A, B, C and D respectively. The off site modifications to channel C power range amplifier did not cause the ion chamber current and test current to be the same at 16.5 megawatts g… more

Condensate System. Section II. Fifth Core I, Seed 1. Test Results DL-S-105

Description: The purpose of the test was to fill the condensate storage tank and the Condensate System and obtain satisfactory preliminary operation. The components of the Condensate System performed adequately and satisfactorily with the exception of fill control valve (M9-VI). This valve (M9-VI) is not used in the current operation procedure.

Study of Factors Influencing Ductility of Iron-Aluminum Alloys. Monthly Letter Report No. 8, 15 March 1959 to 15 March 1960

Description: Studies are being made on the effects of variation of aluminum content, heat treatment, surface preparation, and other metallurgical factors on the room temperature ductility of Al-- Fe alloys. It is estimated that approximately 65 percent of the proposed research has been completed over the first eight and one-half months of the contract period.

An Investigation of Scaling of Zirconium at Elevated Temperatures : Quarterly Status Report No. 10; Sept. 2, 1955 to Dec. 2, 1955

Description: As previously reported, zirconium undergoes large dimensional increases after scaling in air in a critical temperature range, 700 degree-1050 degree C. This finding was observed with specimens of a constant thickness (0;062 in.) To study the thickness effect, a number of specimens ranging in thickness from 0.020 to 0.200 in. were scaled in air at a temperature (900 degree C) where the growth is a maximum for a given time. Both cold rolled iodine sheet and forged iodide bar stock were used. to d… more

Studies of Surface Contamination: 1. Intercomparison of Methods for Measuring "Removable" Contamination.

Description: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the smear and adhesive paper techniques for measuring [radioactive] surface contamination, and to compare these with a new method of sample collection. This third sampling procedure employs air impingement to redisperse loose contamination from the surface and the resulting airborne material then is collected on a filter.

Fission Product Release from UO2 and by High Temperature Diffusion and Melting in Helium and Air.

Description: The experimental demonstration of fission product release from over heated reactor fuel is necessarily subject in many respects to the arbitrary conditions imposed by the experimenter. Since an almost infinite latitude exists in the choice of materials, atmospheres, gas, velocities, temperatures etc., some allowance for an extrapolation to alternate conditions is definitely in order. The conditions imposed in this study are best described as those most likely to maximize fission product release… more

Preliminary Design of a 10-Mw(t) Pebble-Bed Reactor Experiment

Description: The objectives of this study have been to examine the problems of the pebble-bed reactor concept and to conceive a design of a facility for investigating the feasibility of this type of reactor. The design must provide for adequate leaktightness of the contaminated-gas system and adequate maintenance of contaminated components, the most vital feasibility questions of the concept.

Chemical Development Section C Monthly Progress Report August 1959

Description: Uranium extractions from carbonate solutions were effective and phase separation rates were rapid using a new commercial quaternary extractant, Alamine 336. Extraction coefficients were approximately proportional to the quaternary concentration. Addition of -0.5 mole tridecanol/mole quaternary to the solvent gave optimum extraction efficiency and phase separation rates.
