Irradiated Fuel Age Determination Study

Description: The release of uncontrollable quantities of harmful fission products such as I{sub 131} upon processing areas. At present this is done by procedural techniques using cards, filing techniques, and cross checks. These methods are entirely independent of the characteristics of the fuel itself and are subject to failure from human error. It is therefore advantageous to find a method of determining the age of irradiated fuel after discharge from the properties of the fuel. Such a method, with its re… more

Irradiation analysis, PT-IP-714: Irradiation of solid aluminum in KER-1, KER-2, KER-3, and KER-4 with process water cooling

Description: This production test authorizes the irradiation of full length charges of solid aluminum in the KER loops while on single-pass operation with process water cooling. Calculations show that the irradiations will not result in any foreseen reactor or personnel hazards and can be safely performed in the KER facilities.

Zircaloy-2 process tube activity, C Reactor

Description: This report presents the dose rates which were observed during the removal of a Zircaloy-2 process tube from C Reactor. The corresponding calculated activity is also presented for the purpose of correlation with the observed dose rate. The tube was removed on July 22, 1964, after having been irradiated by a neutron flux for 560 days (based on time operated efficiency). The tube activity was monitored with a super high range TP (0-5000 R/hr) by suspending a probe through an access port in the fl… more

Modified tubular support patterns: Ribbed and ribless process tubes

Description: Reactor support charge designs and patterns have been numerous and varied over the past few years, the basis for acceptance of a particular support loading being determined from a consideration of fabrication costs and the hydraulic characteristics of the proposed dummy load as it applies to a particular reactor. Since the first three or four dummy pieces downstream of the fuel column (and upstream of the column in a spline tube) are discarded after the irradiation process, it is desirable to u… more
