Activity Build-Up Control by High pH Coolant. A Literature Survey

Description: A survey was made of unclassified literature dealing with the control of activity build-up in pressurized water reactors by high-pH coolants. Survey results indicate that a high-pH coolant is desirable for control of induced radioactivity build-up in pressurized water reactors containing significant amounts of stainless steel and that no significant hazards are introduced by adoption of a high-pH coolant. Lithium hydroxide was found to be the most acceptable agent for coolant pH control. Strong… more

Analog to digital converter system for temperature monitoring -- B, C, D, DR, F, and H reactors

Description: This document discusses a proposal that certain presently installed reactor process water outlet temperature data logging equipment in subject reactors to be replaced with new functionally simplified equipment of a more adequate design. The primary purpose of the proposed installation is to replace existing equipment which is obsolete and in three reactors is worn out to the point where the equipment is out of service frequently for periods of time up to 8 hours or more. The new equipment will … more

Calculation of Doppler Coefficient and Other Safety Parameters for a Large Fast Oxide Reactor

Description: Several safety parameters are calculated for a large, fast, Na-cooled, oxide-fueled reactor. The Doppler coefficient is studied as regards its effect on the reactivity during a power excursion, and its dependence on the neutron spectrum, on the concentrations of U/sup 238/, Pu /sup 239/ , a nd Pu/sup 240/, on spatial temperature and power distributions, and on temperature. Other parameters studied include the Na temperature coefficient of reactivity, and the reactivity insertion caused by total… more

Critical mass control specifications: Hoods 7-C and 9-B

Description: This report discusses the critical mass control specifications for Hoods 7-C and 9-B have become obsolete due to needed storage within the confines of Hood 9-C, and equipment modifications. Nuclear safety in Hood 7-C and 9-B depends almost entirely on controlling the mass and geometry of the plutonium compounds not confined by the processing equipment. Generally, the processing vessels and associated piping are designed and arranged in the hood to be critically safe at full operating capacity. … more

Crystal Structure Of Propionic Acid

Description: The crystal structures of the normal fatty acids of low molecular weight have been rather neglected until recently. Formic acid and acetic acid occur in the solid as hydrogen-bonded linear polymers, while several acids with eleven or more carbon atoms per molecule exist in the solid as dimers. The melting points of these acids, when plotted against number of carbon atoms, fall on two rather similar curves for even and odd numbers of carbon atoms, respectively, each with a minimum near five carb… more

THE EFFECTS OF INTERNAL HEAT GENERATION ON POT CALCINATION RATES FOR RADIOACTIVE WASTES

Description: Methods by which the radial deposition mechanism was determined in experiments with simulated waste solutions are reviewed. Based on this mechanism, an expression for the rate of solid deposition with internal heat generation was developed by a combined heat and material balance. A sample calculation for Purex waste showed that a moderate heat generation rate of 5000 Btu/hr/ft/sup 3/ would decrease the time to fill a 12-in.-dia calcination vessel from 78 to 55 hr. For the calcination stage of t… more

Error analysis of the TAI equation

Description: There is a certain tolerance of error implicit in any calculation based upon measured physical data. Occasionally, the error is explicitly recognized by attaching a plus or minus variation to the calculated quantity. More often, however, the error is simply neglected. The present analysis was performed to quantify the error implicit in a typical TAI (Trip-After-Instability) limit calculation. This error results from the precision of measurement of each of the parameters used in the calculation … more

Extruded Ceramic Nuclear Fuel Development Program. Final Report

Description: Urania rods 6-in. long and 0.475-in. in diameter were extruded and sintered to densities exceeding 94% of the theoratical urania density. The rods dropped freely through a straight metal tube 8-in. long with an internal diameter 0.004-in. greater than the diameter of the rods. All properties of the extruded and sintered rods relevant to their use as a nuclear fuel material were at least equal to the corresponding properties of pressed and sintered urania pellets. Extruded and sintered urania ro… more

Feasibility Study of a New Mass Flow System. Quarterly Report No. 4, March 1, 1961 to May 31, 1961

Description: Activities are reported on development work on a mass flow system capable of measuring externally the properties of homogeneous flow, slurries, highly corrosive fluids, and multi-phase fluids. In the proposed system, the fluid passes through an S-shaped tube wherein measurements of the angular momentum and density yield mass flow directly. (B.O.G.)

Low Frequency Amplifier IH-130-1

Description: A tranistorized d.c. coupled amplifier having very good gain stability, as well as very low drift of the output d.c. level, has been designed. Low frequency input signals with an amplitude of .04 to 2 volts peak-to-peak, approximately, coming from a low impedance source (voice soil of a speaker system) are amplified to an approximate peak-to-peak amplitude of 4 volts. The output is intended to drive a load of the order of 100 kohm.

A Modular, Low-Cost, Sodium-Heated Steam Generator

Description: A proposed design and development program for a potentially economical, high-performance, sodium-heated steam generator is described. The concept employs modular units grouped together to provide for any combined power level desired. Fabrication expense is shown to be reduced by the reduction in heat transfer area requirements. This reduc, tion is achieved through improved heat transfer coefficients which exist under supercritical steam conditions. The testing of two small units ( approximates … more
