Equipoise-2: A Two-Dimensional, Two-Group, Neutron-Diffusion Code for the IBM-7090 Computer

Description: Equipoise-2, a two-dimensional, two-group neutron-diffusion code in R-Z geometry, has been programmed for the IBM-7090 computer. This code was designed to permit the running of large numbers of cases without requiring excessive machine time. Typical running times are of the order of one to three minutes per case for a 1000-point problems. The maximum number of mesh points that can be used is 1444.

Test of Stainless Steel Freeze Jacket to be Used on 1/2-inch High Pressure and High Temperature Process Lines

Description: In order to test the operation of a freeze jacket in air with the process fluid closely following the conditions found in the high pressure circulation loop of a homogeneous reactor, or, 2000 psi and 300C, a test loop was built and used in conjunction with existing refrigeration equipment. The freeze jacket was made of 5/16-in. type 346 stainless steel tubing wrapped around and welded to a 1/2-in. stainless steel process line. It was concluded that for these reactor operating conditions, only a… more

Beryllium

Description: The information concerning beryllium assembled herein has been selected primarily to provide information that might be pertinent to the design of the ART. The creep-rupture data in the literature have been obtained from vacuum cast and extruded beryllium, rather than from the hot-pressed beryllium which will be used in the ART. A research program is being conducted by the Brush Beryllium Company, under contract to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which will eventually provide the design engi… more

Anisotropic Elastic Scattering of Neutrons

Description: In an elastic collision the neutron loses part of its kinetic energy to the nucleus with both the kinetic and momentum of the system being conserved. However, for many elements the scattering is not isotropic in the center-of-mass system at the higher neutron energies. Many of the present reactor multigroup codes include anisotropic scattering at the high neutron energies, while many others assume isotropic scattering at all energies. In order to consider some of the effects of including anisot… more

HFIR Beryllium Reflector Preliminary Design Report

Description: This report considers the HFIR reflector design criteria and presents a summary of the reflector design. The reflector type chosen as complying best with the established criteria consists of a 3 in. thick removable beryllium annulus utilizing four concentric cylinders with cooling water flowing through the annuli between cylinders, and an outer 9 in. thick permanent beryllium annulus with axial circular coolant holes. Reflector support structures and experimental facilities are described and pr… more

Determination of the Six Turbulent Reynolds' Stresses by the Hot Wire Method for Arbitrary Intensity and Geometry with Special Application to Axisymmetric Flow

Description: A relationship is derived the mean square fluctuating current of a hot wire anemometer and the sic turbulent Reynolds stresses in the stream-coordinate system without employing the usual low turbulent intensity approximation. The relatively simple result is a consequence of assuming proportionality between the wire current reading and the perpendicular velocity component instead of the non-linear dependence required by King's law. The assumption is valid for instruments equipped with the proper… more

Pressure Vessel Exposure to Fast Neutrons

Description: In a gas-cooled reactor operating at very high power density the thickness of the reflector may be determine by the requirement that the steel pressure vessel be protected from an excessive dose of fast neutrons, rather than by the usual requirements of neutron economy and power distribution. It is important the the reflector not be made thicker than necessary, since an increase in pressure vessel diameter can result in a marked increase in cost, as well as a decrease in the permitted gas pres… more
