Methods for Computing Manpower Requirements for Weapon Systems Under Development

Description: Report discussing a method developed for an accurate and comprehensive forecasting of manpower requirements for new weapon systems. Plans are presented for an approximation of the effect of environment upon manning requirements, for the determination of manhours required for work of a type not amenable to direct task analysis, and for the estimation of maintenance activity frequency rates.

Preliminary MSRE Gamma Ray Source and Biological Shielding Survey

Description: The major gamma ray sources and some of the resultant biological shielding requirements have been evaluated at both full power operation and following shut down for the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment. The sources include gamma rays due to the fission events in the reactor and those associated with activation of materials. Shielding estimates were made for the reactor system cells and for some maintenance facilities.

Neutron Losses to Pa-233 in the Aqueous Homogenous Breeder Reactor

Description: Neutron losses to Pa-233 in the blanket of the AHBR were computed and compared for two cases: (1) concentration of Pa-233 is maintained uniform by continuous mixing, (2) batches of fertile material are shifted periodically from high- to low-flux regions of blanket. It was found that, if the fertile material is cycled through three radial positions in three days, the loss of neutrons to Pa-233 is no more than one per cent greater than if it is mixed continuously.

Some Temperature Aspects of the HFIR Control Plate System

Description: This study examines the effects of water flow rate through the control region on local bulk water temperature and on control plate surface temperature, radial thermal expansion, and thermal stress. Flow rates of 1200, 800 and 400 gpm are considered for each of three control plate positions typical of startup, mid-cycle, and end-of-cycle. Based on the factors investigated in this study, the calculations indicate that a flow rate as low as 400 gpm may be reasonable.

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, had operated for the bulk of the test programs in the temperature range 1000-1250 deg F. Cavitation damage was manifested in each of the impellers by the formation of deep pits (in excess of 1/4-inch), the location of damaged areas varying with impeller geometry.

Preparation and Specifications of Miniature Fermi Reactor Core B Fuel Specimens for Irradiation Testing

Description: The preparation of miniature plate specimens containing dispersions of 33.2 wt % UO2 in type 347 stainless steel for irradiation testing is described. These plates stimulate the prototype roll-bonded stainless steel clad composite plates intended for the Core B fuel element of the Enrico Fermi sodium-cooled reactor. The significant characteristics of the fabricated irradiation specimens are tabulated. The samples will be used to determine the irradation behavior of 33.2 wt % UO2 at temperatur… more

Temperature Transients Due to Density Changes on Changing Power Level in the HRT

Description: Changing the power level in the HRT leads to small average density changes in the high pressure system which produce noticeable changes in the nuclear average temperature. It is calculated that taking the reactor from zero power to 5Mw in one-half hour will lead to a temperature rise of about 0.7 degrees C, followed by a gradual fall over a two-hour period to about 1.3 degrees C below the temperature at zero power.
