Reactor instrumentation and safety circuit status review and program document

Description: This document has been prepared for internal use by the General Electric Company to serve as a program for evaluating reactor instrumentation and safety circuit equipment needs. It is intended that this document be used as a guide for defining, planning and scheduling engineering effort; budgeting of capital money; and project planning for new instrumentation systems. Effort will be made to periodically evaluate the status of the programs presented and provide updating information accordingly.A… more

A DISCUSSION AND BIBLIOGRAPHY OF CURRENT LITERATURE CONCERNING VAN ALLEN BELTS FOR USE IN SNAP SPACE ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES

Description: Discussion of theories on particle motion in electric and magnetic fields precedes examination of theories on the source of the inner and outer Van Allen belts. Theories for the inner belt propose solar cosmic ray injection and galactic cosmic ray injection as the source of the protons. Neutron albedo is particularly examined but seems to be unaccountable for the proton belt. Neutron albedo and injection from the sun are also considered as possible sources of the electrons in the outer belt. Fl… more

Pathfinder Atomic Power Plant. Boron Stainless Steel Control Rods for Pathfinder Reactor. Final Summary Report

Description: An extensive development, fabrication, and design analysis program was completed on 2 wt% boron stainiess steel for Pathfinder boiler and superheater control rods. Results indicated that the control rods will operate satisfactorily in the reactor under all foreseeable conditions. It was concluded that the maximum local burnup on the boiler rods is limited to 1.0 core at.% and the superheater rods to 0.5 core at.% to remain well below the onset of any deleterious effects. All stresses imposed on… more
