Summary report, Flexible VSR`s and VSR channel sleeve development programs

Description: (VSR = vertical safety rod.) This report summarizes results of development programs which have evaluated vertical rod channel sleeving materials and provided flexible vertical rods, acceptable for both interim use before rod channel sleeving, and for subsequent use in sleeved channels. B{sub 4}C is the rod material; graphite and Al oxide are among the sleeve materials.

Activation of electrical machinery. Supplement 1. [Preliminary evaluation; not applicable to ground tests]

Description: The following analysis of the induced radioactivity in SNAP-50/SPUR electrical machinery having a high cobalt content is submitted. Induced radioactivity in the flight vehicle will contribute negligibly to allowable radiation levels. This is especially so due to the low neutron to gamma ratio of assumed radiation damage tolerances to semiconductors. A calculation to estimate the order of magnitude of induced radioactivity in cobalt is attached. The calculation is based on a best guess of the ne… more

Control Drum Actuator Checker

Description: The Control Drum Actuator Checker is used to verify the operation of the hydraulic control drum actuators before they are installed on the reactor. It provides for local checkout after installation. It provides for local checkout after installation. It also provides for pre-installation hydraulic leak and pneumatic seal test on individual actuator assemblies.

Development of salt velocity technique

Description: The salt velocity technique for measuring coolant flow through a SNAP 8 tri-cusp channel was studied and developed. The parameters important in obtaining reproducible data were investigated and a test procedure, which yields dath of good precision, was developed. Dath were taken on a tri-cusp channel with flush circular electrodes (0.125 inch O.D.) as well as on a tri-cusp channel with parallel plate electrodes (0.006 inches thick, 0.250 inches long), which were situated 0.050 inches apart and … more
