Niobium Phase Diagrams : Manuscript Report on Niobium-Oxygen System

Description: Abstract: "The niobium-oxygen equilibrium has been determined by metallographic examination of arc-cast alloys made of electron-gun-refined niobium metal and special purity niobium pentoxide. Two intermediate oxides, NbO and NbO2, melt without decomposition at 1945 C and 1915 C, respectively. Eutectic reactions exist between niobium and NbO and 1915 C and between NbO and NbO2 at 1810 C. Experimental supports a peritectic reaction between NbO2 and Nb2O5 1510 C. The maximum solid solubility of ox… more

P.T.: IP-272-A-FP, Pilot test of self-supported fuel elements in ribless zirconium process tubes

Description: Up to one hundred ribless zirconium process tubes are to be installed in C Reactor, and necessary reactor equipment modifications made to permit routine charging of these tubes with self-supported natural uranium fuel elements. This test authorizes continued loading in these tubes until authorized by process standards or until it is deemed impractical to convert C Reactor to this geometry.

Effect of saturation of water with dissolved corrosion product on the in-reactor corrosion rate of aluminum in deionized water: Proposal for test in 1706 KER

Description: This report discusses a proposal to measure the corrosion rate of aluminum-clad DOE elements in deionized water in one of the KER Loops at the highest obtainable surface temperatures under conditions where the bulk water adjacent to the elements is saturated with aluminum corrosion product. This will determine whether in-reactor corrosion may be reduced by controlling the aluminum concentration in the water and also provide corrosion data in deionized water at higher temperatures than is now av… more

Radiation decay data of various dummies and aluminums

Description: Sections of the dummies furnished by Radiological Engineering, Process Reactor Development Operation were machined into 1/4 inch diameter by 1 inch long cylinders and irradiated in the Quickie Facility at F area. The pieces were discharged directly into a holder one foot from the Beckman chamber. The transient time from in-pile to the chamber is approximately 30 seconds. The readings were taken using a Beckman chamber, Beckman Micro-Micro Ammeter and Recorder. This system has been calibrated wi… more

The Ratio of Alpha to Beta Activity of Natural Atmospheric Radioactivity

Description: Abstract: The alpha to beta ratio of naturally occurring radioactivity in the air has been investigated. The study has concerned itself primarily with radon daughter products collected on filter-paper samples from the time equilibrium has been established on the paper through elapsed times during which radioactive counting is normally accomplished. Calculations showing the change in this ratio of activities during the above period are presented. From this work it appears that the observed const… more
