The Determination of Fission Product Gamma Doses

Description: In this paper arbitrary limits of the general fission source gamma problem are set. Then, by assuming cooling of at least one day, it is shown that only twelve different fission product gamma sources need ever be considered.

N. S. Savannah Fuel Design and Development Program: Fuel Rod Vibration (Preliminary Report)

Description: This is a preliminary report on the investigation of the N.S. Savannah replacement fuel rod vibration amplitude when excited by water flowing parallel to the axis of the fuel rod. Methods of calculating the fuel rod frequency in air were verified by experiment. Work is continuing to establish the validity of methods of calculating natural frequencies in water and to confirm the correlation of flow induced vibration amplitude found in reference (1).
