Progress Relating to Civilian Applications During January, 1957

Description: A report which investigates the effect of irradiation on the thermal conductivity of uranium. Thermal-conductivity measurements are made on clad uranium specimens prior to irradiation.

Progress Relating to Civilian Applications During February, 1957

Description: A report about the design and construction of equipment for thermal-conductivity measurements of irradiated encapsulated uranium. Metallographic techniques used to confirm solubility limits of uranium in thorium, previously determined by electrical resistivity and X-ray data, have been unsuccessful.

Progress Relating to Civilian Applications During December, 1956

Description: A report about thermal conductivity measurements which are made on uranium, uranium-1.5 w/o zirconium, and zircaloy 2 for a program that aims to determine the feasibility of using clad specimens. Results from the measurements indicate that the difference in thermal conductivity values between uranium and uranium-1.5 w/o zirconium is less than the anticipated 5 percent.
