A Device for Continuous Detection of Hydrogen in Sodium

Description: Abstract: A device to detect the presence of hydrogen in sodium has been developed. Such a device, installed in a sodium heated steam generator, would signal the presence of water in the sodium resulting from a leak in the sodium-water barrier.

Fuel element study for Reactor Overbore Program

Description: Recent studies have confirmed that large incentives exist for overboring the reactor process channels approximately 500 mils in the C and five old reactors under the proposed Plant Improvement Program. Conservative estimates of the incentives for overboring indicate a payout period of about two years for the proposed work, an increase in plutonium production of 15--18%, derived from increased conversion ratio and a reduction in plant unit cost. Since sufficient progress has been made in the are… more

Protection of Graphite by Impregnation. Quarterly Progress Report No. 3 for September 1-November 30, 1960. Vitro Job 2195

Description: The hypothesis that sample resistivity is the controlling factor in electrokinetic impregnation was substantiated. Experiments show that dense clay- bonded silicon carbide can be impregnated beneath the surface pores whereas only surface pore impregnation is achieved with both dense and porous graphite. The resistivity of the materials differ by a factor of about 1O/sup 10/. Although deep penetration of the substrate by the particles of the coating system is not achieved during deposition, ther… more

On the Green's Function for Two-Dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Waves. II

Description: "As an extension of an earlier paper the Green's function is evaluated for the Lundquist equation linearized about uniform magnetic field, constant matter density, and zero flow velocity. It is assumed that all quantities are functions of two space variables and time only. In the general magnetic field configuration considered here a pure Alfvén disturbance no longer exists; there is instead a wave with properties of both the Alfvén and fast‐slow disturbance."

Bounce III

Description: BOUNCE III is a program which was written for the IBM-704 as part of a study of the parameters of the neutron distribution in a large thermal column. The program calculates the eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors of the matrix resulting from a diffusion-theory, multigroup description of the thermal neutron spectrum.
