A Method of Determining the Intermediate Energy Neutron Dose

Description: The intermediate energy neutron flux existing outside the biological shielding of reactors has not been studied to any great extent previous to this time, because of the lack of an instrument capable of detecting neutrons in the intermediate energy range. The instrument used at the MTR utilizes polyethylene spheres of various sizes to give different amounts of moderation and absorption to the impinging neutrons. A procedure for the approximate determination of the relative number of intermediat… more

A METHOD FOR RECORDING NUCLEAR RESONANCE CAPTURE SPECTRA

Description: A method is described for continuously varying the Van de Graaff ion beam energy while the count rate from the decay of the compound nucleus is monitored and recorded. The method utilizes a synchronous motor system to synchronize the recorder and the magnetic field control of the Van de Graaff analyzing system. Use of this method results in significant time saving in calibration of the Van de Graaff accelerator and the determination of target thicknesses. (auth)

Calculation of Doppler Coefficient and Other Safety Parameters for a Large Fast Oxide Reactor

Description: Several safety parameters are calculated for a large, fast, Na-cooled, oxide-fueled reactor. The Doppler coefficient is studied as regards its effect on the reactivity during a power excursion, and its dependence on the neutron spectrum, on the concentrations of U/sup 238/, Pu /sup 239/ , a nd Pu/sup 240/, on spatial temperature and power distributions, and on temperature. Other parameters studied include the Na temperature coefficient of reactivity, and the reactivity insertion caused by total… more

Suitability of Inconel for Corrosion Protection on Water Side of Sodium Component Steam Generator

Description: The heat exchanger and steam generator for the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission Sodium Components Project will be constructed entirely of type 316 stainless steel. Because of the susceptibility of this alloy to stress corrosion cracking, it is proposed to clad all areas of the steam generator with Inconel where the stainless steel will be exposed to water and steam. A discussion is presented of the work to justify the selection of Inconel for this service. A discussion of Inconel type welding all… more

The Cold Pressing of Sinterable UOâ‚‚

Description: The intent of this work was to explore more fully the pressing of sinterable UO2 powders into cylindrical compacts in the hope that a more precise prediction of green density in terms of powder properties, pressure, and geometry could be evolved.

High-Temperatuer Creep Evaluation in Carbon Dioxide Atmosphere : Summary Report, October 1, 1959 to March 31, 1961

Description: This report follows an investigation made to determine creep-rupture data for three sheet materials. Fourteen of sixteen tests were made in an atmosphere of carbon dioxide within hermetically sealed capsules, analyzing the reaction of the three sheet metals: 347 stainless steel, iron-aluminum-chromium alloy designated 261C, and a zirconium-base alloy, AE1H. Minimum creep rate, per cent elongation, and rupture life were determined and reported.

Maximum liability evaluation: Strontium and cesium shipments on Decalso media

Description: This report summarizes the evaluations of the maximum monetary liability associated with cesium-137 shipments in the STT Casks and strontium-90 shipments in the HAPO-IA Cask. These evaluations are of most immediate importance since these shipments are planned for the month of March 1961. These liability evaluations concern the direct consequences of a release of the fission product shipment in each case, but do not cover the probability of such events occurring. The liability evaluation of the … more

Production test IP-401-A: Irradiation of Zircaloy-2 jacketed UO{sub 2} tubular elements in the KER loops

Description: The objective of this production test is to evaluate the behavior of large diameter tubular UO{sub 2} fuel elements during high temperature irradiation. Eighteen inch long tubular UO{sub 2} fuel elements 1.804 inch OD, 0.544 inch ID, in 0.060 inch Zircaloy-2 jackets will be irradiated in the KER loops either alone or in conjunction with other tests to exposures up to 3500 MWD/T of contained uranium.
