Supplement A to PT-IP-183-A-98-FP: Evaluation of projection fuel elements for use in K process tubes

Description: The objective of this supplement is to authorize charging of ten tubes of ``bumper`` fuel elements and controls into each K Reactor. The test is designed to reevaluate the reduction in hot-spot incidence associated with fuel alignment within K Reactor ribbed process tubes for both natural and enriched uranium I&E fuel elements of the KIV geometry.

THE SNAP II POWER CONVERSION SYSTEM TOPICAL REPORT NO. 14. MERCURY MATERIALS EVALUATION AND SELECTION

Description: SNAP II is the designation for a 3 kw nuclear auxiliary power unit to be used in a satellite vehicle. The SNAP II System consists of a reactor heat source, a boiler, a Hg Rankine engine, an alternator, and a condenser. The corrosion and subsequent mass transfer resulting from the use of Hg as the thermodynamic wo:king fluid are important considerations in the selection of materials for the SNAP II System. Consequently, corrosion and mass transfer behavior were under study for the past three yea… more

Examinations of Pump Impellers From Sodium and Fused Salt Pump Endurance Tests

Description: Examinations of three Inconel pump impellers were made to establish the extent of cavitation damage and degree of carburization sustained during pump endurance tests. The pumps, two of which circulated fluoride salt and one sodium, operated for the bulk of the test programs in the temperature range 1000 to 1250 deg F. Cavitation damage was manifested in each of the impellers by the formation of deep pits (in excess of 1/4-in.), the location of damaged areas varying with impeller geometry. Pit f… more
