Transition Boiling Heat Transfer Program; Sixth Quarterly Progress Report, April - June 1964

Description: Summary: Transition boiling data was taken with an improved flow loop, to explore the influence of loop characteristics on rod temperature fluctuations the transition region was found to be much smaller than for comparable conditions with a different loop. Also the amplitude, and frequency of the temperature oscillations, were significantly less than before. These results indicate that loop characteristic and flow disturbance parameters play a prominent part in governing the transition tempe… more

Program for the Development of Plutonium Recycle for Use in Light Water Moderated Reactors Quarterly Progress Report: April 1 - June 30, 1964

Description: A research program is being conducted to obtain experimental data in the irradiation of plutonium-enriched fuel to confirm a theoretical model for predicting isotopic composition and reactivity changes in plutonium-enriched, light-water-moderated reactors. Quarterly progress: Project fuel fins irradiated to 1860, 3000, and 5300 MWD/T have been successfully sampled in the Radioactive Materials Laboratory. The samples have been dissolved and aliquots delivered to Chemistry for Mass Spectrometry … more

UO2 Pellet Thermal Conductivity From Irradiations With Central Melting

Description: Abstract: Continued irradiation experience under the AEC - Euratom, UO2 High Performance Program provided five separate and distinct sets of data on UO2 thermal conductivity. Four of these results are expressed in terms of the value of the thermal conductivity. The first two of these measurements were applicable -- strictly -- to poly crystalline UO2. Recently, three additional sets of measurements have been obtained -- all pertinent to UO2 after the formation of large columnar grains. The … more

Development Program for Increased Output in the Garigliano Nuclear Reactor. Quarterly Report No. 7

Description: The United States and the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom), on May 29, and June 18, 1958, signed an agreement which provides a basis for co-operation in programs for the advancement of the peaceful applications of atomic energy. The work described in this report represents the Joint U.S.-Euratom effort. The over-all development program is designed to obtain the test data and operating experience necessary to eventually realize a 50 percent increase in the output of the Garigliano Nucl… more
