A Sensitive Differential Pressure System For Measuring Cryogenic Liquid Depths

Description: A system for measuring depths of cryogenic liquids is described. The indicating device is a modified differential pressure gage. The level sensing probes are of various types, either permanent or removable. The heat leak to cryogenic liquids may be made negligibly small.

Supplement B to production test IP-648-AC evaluation of thorium oxide as a fringe loading

Description: Irradiation of thorium oxide elements of the original test began in January 1964. Twenty columns of thorium oxide elements located in the outermost processing channels of F Reactor, accompanied by 40 columns of enriched, 0.947 w/o U-235, uranium elements in two adjacent lattice unit channels, were charged to permit evaluation of the reactivity effects of the loading and to obtain data on product and contamination build-up rates. Of the two loadings of thoria elements authorized by the initial t… more

DT-IP-434-D: Irradiation effect on ceramic materials

Description: The purpose of the test described in this report was to determine the effect of production reactor flux on ceramic materials being considered for lining the vertical safety rod channels at the production reactors. This document is being written to describe the test, the results to date, and the work which remains to be done. The materials being evaluated in the test are: Aluminum silicate (Maryland Lava Co.); silicon nitride bonded silicon carbide (Norton Co. ``crystalon``); and aluminum oxide … more

Variable goal exposure plans for C-II-N, C-II-E, K-III-N, K-III-E, O-II-N, and O-II-E material

Description: The purpose of this memorandum is to transmit revisions to the goal exposure plans for C-II-N, C-II-E, K-III-N, K-III-E, O-II-N and O-II-E material. Inherent in these plans is an assumption that the only restraint on metal usage is that imposed by the economics of the plutonium production process and associated uranium cycle. In the case when metal throughput is limited, by ex-reactor physical capabilities, to a level lower than the unrestrained reactor requirements, exposures higher than those… more

DEVELOPMENT OF PLUTONIUM BEARING FUEL MATERIALS. Progress Report, January 1 through March 31, 1961

Description: Three Pu preparations were made and partially characterized. These preparations were one pure PuO/sub 2/ preparation via the batch-oxalate route and two PuO/sub 2/-UO/sub 2/ preparations containing 0.5 and 20 at.% PuO/sub 2/ via the continuous coprecipitation route. The PuO/sub 2/ preparation, which had the largest surface area of the preparations (29 m/sup 2//g), tended to pick up weight when exposed to the box atmosphere. Dry pressing and sintering studies were conducted on the PuO/sub 2/ pre… more

SOME EXPERIMENTS ON THE ACCURACY OF THORIA SLURRY SAMPLES

Description: Tests were performed on a thoria slurry flowing in a pipe to determine the magnitude of the possible error involved in the sampling process. Evidence indicates that a correct sample is obtained by withdrawing the sample isokinetically (i.e., by facing the sampler into the flow and adjusting the sampler velocity to match the ambient velocity) provided that the sampler is larger than some minimura diameter that is dependent on the mean eddy length and/ or the mean particle size.

Corrected Optical Pyrometer Readings

Description: Report presenting a table of corrected optical pyrometer readings which enables optical pyrometer users to convert observed temperature immediately to the true temperature, if the effective emissivity of the material being observed is known. The table gives observed temperatures from 1,000 to 3,000ºK in increments of 5 degrees, from 3,000 to 5,000ºK in increments of 10 degrees, from 5,000 to 10,000ºK in increments of 50 degrees, and from 10,000 to 39,900ºK in increments of 100 degrees.
