Development of Pressures Tubing for the Plutonium Recycle Test Reactor

Description: Pressurized water nuclear reactors may be designed based upon either of two concepts: (1) pressure vessel, wherein the entire core is placed in a large, high strength fuel channels within a low pressure container. The Plutonium Recycle Test Reactor is a pressure tube type reactor. Selection of this basic type of pressurized water reactor depended to an appreciable extent upon the availability of suitable pressure tubing.

Engineering bases for power levels and exposures - April, 1960, thru December, 1960

Description: It is the purpose of this document to provide assistance to the Manufacturing Section personnel in determining their future operating plans. In general, the inter-relationship of such engineering parameters as flow, reactor orificing, rupture performance, etc. has been considered. The effect of these engineering parameters are summed up in our recommendations for {open_quotes}Operating Plans{close_quotes} shown graphically in this document. It is to be emphasized that these plans do not reflect… more

A Study of the Effects of Some Spray Column Variables on Radiant-Heat Transfer in Spray Calcination

Description: Calcination of liquid radioactive wastes, the process of converting metal nitrates and sulfates to oxides by heat, is under development at Hanford as a means of reducing these liquids to a dry powder or solid which can be stored safely. Radiant-heat spray calcination, one of the methods under study, was first investigated at the Oak Ridge K-25 Plant (1) as a possible method of calcining uranyl nitrate to uranium trioxide. The process has also been under extensive development at the Pulp and Pap… more
