Linearized Three Component Magneto-Hydrodynamics

Description: "A linearized three component MHD theory is given. The three components are two oppositely charged species and a neutral species. Linearized macroscopic equations are presented which in the limit of vanishing magnet field reduce to fluid dynamical equations, and in the limit of vanishing neutral components is frictional. In addition the sound speed that enters is a function of three equilibrium densities. These equations yield a dispersion relation which is tenth order in the wave speed. The d… more

C reactor overbore fuel failures

Description: The concept of overboring the graphite channels in an older Hanford reactor and installing oversized tubes charged with oversize fuel elements is being investigated at C reactor. Recently a column of these oversized test fuel elements exhibited three uranium cleavage (split) type failures after experiencing severe reactor flux cycling. This report presents a preliminary description of both the fuel failures and the flux cycling encountered by the reactor.
