Fast Flux Test Facility. Design and Development Quality Assurance Requirements for the FFTF

Description: The document is presented to provide general management requirements for Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL) and contractor design and development quality assurance programs to assure the required quality level of the various items required for the FFTF. The document is applicable as imposed by the contract to FFTF contractors and subcontractors. The document is also applicable to PNL design and development activities related to the FFTF.

Thermomigration of Au/sup 195/ and Sb/sup 125/ in gold and Ni/sup 59/ in nickel

Description: Each interface contained a layer of the appropriate tracer and an inert radioactive Hf/sup 181/O/sub 2/ marker. During the temperature gradient anneal, the maximum of the tracer profile at the hot interface shifted with respect to the Hf/sup 181/O/sub 2/ marker. Heat of transport of Au/sup 195/ in gold was found to be 0.80 +- 0.27 eV. This value supports Huntington's theory. The heat of transport of Ni/sup 59/ in nickel was estimated to be 1.3 +- 7.2 eV. The experimentally determined value of t… more

Thulium oxide fuel characterization study (thulium-170 fueled capsule parametric design)

Description: A doubly encapsulated thulia wafer, i.e., individually lined wafers stacked one upon another inside a fuel capsule was studied. The temperature profiles were determined for thulia power densities ranging from 8 to 24 W/cc and fuel capsule surface temperatures ranging from 1000/sup 0/F (538/sup 0/C) to 2000/sup 0/F (1093/sup 0/C). Parametric studies were also carried out on a singly encapsulated configuration in which the thulia wafers were stacked face to face in an infinitely long, lined cylin… more

Compact thermoelectric converter. Quarterly progress report, July 1, 1968- -September 30, 1968. Phase II-C

Description: Declassified 30 Aug 1973. An initial analysis of experimental heatup data was compiled to determine the success of module experiments designed to triple the voltage power ratio of standard TEM-9 modules. Accomplishment of this design improvement is extremely significant in the development of tabular module systems having lower power applications. With the increased voltage to power ratio, power conditioning devices will not be required to step up the module output voltage to a more usable level… more
