Analysis of High Purity Water by Spectrochemistry

Description: When water is used as a coolant in any heat-producing process, the purity of the cooling water is of considerable importance, both from the standpoint of build-up of deposited solids inside the cooling tubes, and as an indication of corrosion of the tubes or any other materials with which the water comes in contact. The first problem has long been recognized, and is generally solved by pretreatment of the water. Efficient treatment can reduce the total solids content to less than 0.1 ppm, and t… more

Examination of Irradiated Uranium-Magnesium Matrix Fuel Material

Description: Twelve uranium-magnesium fuel material samples have been irradiated in the MTR at the request of the Pile metallurgy Unit. These samples were 0.40 inch in diameter by 1.5 inches long and were canned in Zircalloy-2 capsules. The uranium used in these specimens was in the form of chips which packs about 50 volume percent. Six of the samples contained a matrix of pure magnesium and the other six contained an alloy matrix of magnesium - 1.4 weight percent silicon. Two specimens of each matrix mater… more
