K Reactor Pu-238 demonstration results (Interim report PTA-063)

Description: During the first half of FY-1968, a test irradiation of neptunium was performed in KE Reactor. The basic objectives of this test were to show the reactor capability for irradiating neptunium target elements in an elevated flux; demonstrate the charge-discharge of several of the target columns during reactor operation; and establish the Pu-238 production characteristics of the K-type reactor. These objectives were successfully met. This document reports the results and conclusions derived in mee… more

K-Reactor: Loss of coolant temperature study of the biological skin

Description: It is of interest to investigate the time following a complete loss of coolant incident when the pile would be exposed to the ambient air. This is of concern due to the fast propagation of graphite burn-up when brought in contact with air at or above the operating temperature of the graphite (1292{degree}F). One possible way conjectured in which the pile can be exposed to the surrounding environment is for the centering flange gasket (neoprene) or the bellows gas seal (silicone) to fail. This p… more

River temperature cycling at 181-D

Description: Daily river temperature cycling has existed at reactor area river pumphouses from the beginning of operations. Of small account at first and due only to the daily air and solar radiation cycle, the phenomenon became significant with the initiation of daily river flow cycling at priest Rapids Dam to meet changing power generation requirements. The problem was compounded by the construction of the N reactor, placing a water intake and outfall at approximately half the previous distance between th… more
