High temperature allotropy and thermal expansion of the rare-earth metals

Description: By means of high temperature X-ray techniques the crystal structure of lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, ytterbium, and possibly gadolinium was found to be body-centered cubic at temperatures near their respective melting points. For ytterbium a hexagonal close-packed structure was also observed, which was shown to be stabilized by atmospheric impurities. Evidence for possible high temperature crystalline transformations in gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, and lutetium was ob… more

Laboratory determination of normal operating flow rates with the 105-F rear face floating nozzle

Description: A new rear nozzle has been developed by Mechanical Development (A), IPD to alleviate the stuck gun barrel problem on the process tubes at F reactor. This nozzle is called the 105-F rear face floating nozzle (RFFN) and is shown in Figure 4. The purpose of this study was to determine the hydraulic operating characteristics of this nozzle and to compare these characteristics with those of the standard nozzle assemblies. This report is essentially an addendum to EW-63756 1 which presented energy lo… more

Measurements of Dissolved Hydrogen Concentration. Core I, Seed 1. Test Results T-612395-A

Description: Measurements were undertaken to compare the performance of a hydrogen- palladium diffusion coil to a palladium resistance wire assembly in measuring hydrogen concentration and to obtain data to evaluate a Swartout Palladium Resistance Gage electronic readout unit. No comparison could be made since the instruments were never in satisfactory service at the same time. The data taken with each instrument are compared with data determined by laboratory analysis. A review of the data indicated that t… more

PERIODIC RADIATION SURVEY. CORE I, SEED 1. Section 3. Test Results T- 612394

Description: Radiation levels inside the concrete enclosures but outside the reactor plant containers after shutdown were determined. Radiation levels in the 1AC, 1BC boiler chamber enclosures and in the reactor chamber enclosure were on the average higher than in previous tests. The highest reading obtained was 7.5 mr/ hr and the lowest reading was 0.03 mr/hr; the mean level was 3.76 mr/hr as compared to 1.37 mr/hr in previous tests. (W.L.H.)

Periodic Radiation Survey of Reactor Plant Container and Components After Shutdown "F" Survey. Core I, Seed 1. Test Results (T-612076). Section 4

Description: An investigation was conducted to obtain measurements of radiation levels inside the hemispherical heads of the 1-B heat exchanger. The radiation levels were measured at the handholes on two occasions with an interval of 640 hrs between them. A very large increase was noted and could be explained only by the possibility that the measurement survey points were not identical. (J.R.D.)

Periodic Radiation Survey of Reactor Plant Container and Components After Shutdown, "I" Survey. Core 1, Seed 1. Section 2. Test Results T-612076

Description: The radiation level and its decay were measured at expected hot-spots in the reactor container, 1AC and 1BD boiler containers, and pressurizer cubicle after plant shutdown for refueling. Initial measurements indicated rela tively high radiation levels in certain areas. Maximum initial readings were 500 mr/hr, 400 mr/hr, 530 mr/hr, and 195 mr/hr in the reactor container, 1AC boiler container, 1BD boiler container, and purification cubicle, respectively. (W.L.H.)

PROPOSAL FOR AN ADVANCED ENGINEERING TEST REACTOR-ETR II

Description: The results of a study are presented which was directed at providing additional experimental loop irradiation space for the AEC-DRD testing program. It was a premise that the experiments allocated to this reactor were those that could not be accommodated in the MTR, ETR, or in existing commercial test reactors. To accomplish the design objectives called for, a reactor producing perturbed neutron fluxes exceeding 10/sup 15/ thermal neutrons per square centimeter per second and 1.5 x 10/sup 15/ e… more

Reamed Rear Face Parker Fitting

Description: A study and tests of the feasibility and best method of reaming rear face Parker fittings has been made. Flow increase of 8 percent, based on maintaining the same front header pressure, can be obtained at B, D, and F reactors by reaming the rear Parker fittings to .610 inch and using existing rear face hardware. Tests indicate mechanical strength will not be significantly reduced, high frequency vibration will not be increased, and that methods of reaming are available.

Reprocessing Uranium-Molybdenum Alloy Fuels-Dissolution in Concentrated Nitric Acid

Description: Dissolution of U--3 wt.% Mo alloys in 12 to 14 M HNO/sub 3/ solutions is discussed. Under these conditions 80 to 95% of the molybdenum content is precipitated as white hydrated molybdic oxide. Molybdic oxide precipitates are bulky; centrifuged volumes range from 6 to 17 vol.% for dissolver solutions 1.0 to 1.5:(M U. The precipitates retain some plutonium and uranium even after thorough washing with water and 1 M HNO/sub 3/. Plutonium and uranium values in washed precipitates can be recovered by… more

Scintillation Counter [gamma]-Spectra Unfolding Code for the IBM-650 Computer

Description: Abstract. An IBM-650 computer code for the detailed unfolding of [gamma]-ray spectra obtained from NaI scintillation counters has been developed. The procedure is set up to remove analyzer scale dependence and to largely remove energy dependences. Computer time is about 1 minute per [gamma]-ray.

THE SOLUBILITY OF NITROGEN AND OXYGEN IN LITHIUM AND METHODS OF LITHIUM PURIFICATION

Description: Experiments were conducted to determine the solubility of N and O in Li at 250 to 450 ction prod- C and to determine which of several possible purification methods is most effective in reducing the N and O content of Li. The solubility of N in Li increased from 0.04 wt.% at 250 ction prod- C to 1.31 wt.% at 450 ction prod- C. The solubility of O was found to be 0.010 wt.% at 250 ction prod- C and increased to 0.066 wt.% at 400 ction prod- C. Vacuum distillation, lowtemperature filtration. cold-… more
