Self-Shielding Measurements in PPA-20

Description: From Introduction: "The self-shielding characteristics of a number of absorbers and of U-235 and U-238 have been investigated in PPA-20 (66°). Most of the measurements have been made in Ring 3 at the core mid-plane. The foil doubling technique was employed. Particular attention was given to 'thin' foil regions for the purpose of extrapolating the data to zero thickness."

Pressure and Thermal Stresses at a Pipe Attachment to a Sphere

Description: Abstract: Design nomographs and equations have been prepared for determining the bending stresses and hoop stresses at the junction of a cylinder and sphere when: (1) Internal pressure exists in the sphere and (2) There is a difference in average temperature between the cylinder and the sphere. A correlation of calculated stresses and photoelastically determined stresses for models with internal pressure is presented.
