Sensitivity to VSR failure: K pipe break accident

Description: Reactor effects of failure of a safety rod to scram can be considered in two major respects: The reduction in total safety system strength which will affect the amount of ``prompt drop`` and subsequent flux decay rate of the average neutron flux-level; and the change in local flux distribution due to the absence of the particular rod which fails to enter the reactor. The purpose of this memorandum is to describe the physical effects involved and to indicate the approximate magnitude of both rea… more

Consistent Properties of Composite Formation Under a Binary Relation

Description: In this paper we study the properties of a relation, H, between two sets, X and Y, H ⊆ X x Y. We wish to determine when the existence of H between some elements of X and Y implies the existence of H between other composite elements of X and Y. The aim is to characterize a relation by its extension or restriction to composite elements.

Hanford isotope production capabilities for single pass reactors

Description: This report is a summary of several studies made by the author during 1967, and early 1968, while providing technical assistance to the Advanced Concepts and Planning Section. An attempt has been made to reduce the data to a usable form which will enable the reader to estimate the production of a particular isotope and the production of weapons grade plutonium that accompanies the co-product loading for different Uranium-235 concentrations of the driver fuels. It should be emphasized that the p… more

Roundness of Molded Detonator Heads

Description: The magnitude of the deviations from roundness of molded detonator heads, caused by the geometry of the part and by different materials, was investigated to provide a scientific basis which can be used to predict dimensions and tolerances of size and roundness for new heads. Injection presses were used to mold detonator heads to precision tolerances. Twenty parts were molded under optimum conditions in two different molds using both DAP filled with long glass fibers and DAP filled with asbestos… more

HAPO tritium production facilities study - 1958 - study reports numbers 1 and 2

Description: Start of the development of new processes to extract mint can be a gradual program. The most promising of early results lies in the area of Isotopic Purification. Steps have been initiated to start development work on separation and purification of mint gas by chromatography. This method has the added advantage over columns as three gases, hydrogen, deuterium and mint may be separated in one operation. Should it appear that this method may fail, a second approach would be development of a packe… more

Compact thermoelectric converter. Quarterly progress report, July 1, 1968- -September 30, 1968. Phase II-C

Description: Declassified 30 Aug 1973. An initial analysis of experimental heatup data was compiled to determine the success of module experiments designed to triple the voltage power ratio of standard TEM-9 modules. Accomplishment of this design improvement is extremely significant in the development of tabular module systems having lower power applications. With the increased voltage to power ratio, power conditioning devices will not be required to step up the module output voltage to a more usable level… more

C Reactor fuel failures tubes 2562 and 3361

Description: C Reactor experienced two severe fuel failures, one in process tube 2562 on 10-27-67, and one in process tube 3361 on 12-27-67, both resulting in major efforts to effect their removal. The intent of this document is to present a summary of the action taken for the removal of the failed elements.
