THERMAL CYCLING TESTS ON U-10 w/o Mo FOR THE ORNL FAST BURST REACTOR

Description: One of the uncertainties concerning the use of uranium-10 wt.% molybdenum in the ORNL Fast Burst Reactor is the thermal-cycling behavior of this alloy. Accordingly, an experimental program was undertaken to determine whether transformation or distortion of gamma-phase uranium--10 wt.% molybdenum can occur during simulated fast-burstreactor thermal cycling, and, should transformation occur, to establish the thermal cycling behavior of partially transformed uranium- - 10 wt.% molybdenum.

Valve Stem Freeze Seal for High-Temperature Sodium

Description: Valve stem freeze seals for high-temperature service in advanced sodium- cooled reactor systems were studied. An experimental model, suitable for use with a 6-in. size valve, operated satisfactorily under a variety of conditions. The freeze seal region was cooled by natural convection to ambient atmosphere; cooling by both circumferential and longitudinal finned sections was experimentally studied. The operating conditions included sodium bulk temperatures up to 1300 tained F, sodium pressures … more
