Time behavior of a critical reactor pulsed with a large square wave source

Description: In a previous Naval Application memorandum, a discussion was given of what happens to the power level of a reactor when an instantaneous, very large neutron source is introduced. The motivation for the problem arises from the question of what happens when a nuclear bomb is detonated near a reactor powered missile. This present memorandum looks at the same problem as that which is discussed in the previous memorandum but in slightly more detail. The results obtained are essentially the same as t… more

Development of Improved Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel. Final Report

Description: Materials with improved corrosion resistance are needed for use in processing equipment handling HNO/sub 3/ -- HF and other corrosive solutions. Investigations were conducted to evaluate special modifications of Types 309 and 310 and higher Cr and Ni alloys. The 0.02% carbon Type 310 Cb, 0.02% carbon Type 310, and all of the higher Cr-Ni alloys were found to have a much improved general corrosion resistance over Type 309. The 0.02% carbon Type 310 Cb is recommended since it is not attacked in w… more
