Homogeneous Reactor Project Quarterly Progress Report: November 1959-January 1960

Description: From Summary: "The major objective of the run was the investigation of fuel stability. The reactor operated for long periods at the design power of 5 Mw with none of the usual indications of instability while the system pressure was kept at 1250 psig. Run 21 ended on January 22, so that the reason for an abrupt change in the mixing rate of fuel between the core and blanket could be investigated and a reactor steam-system valve could be repaired."

Description of the Ibm-704 Code for the Calculation of Concentration Transients in the HRT

Description: The calculation of concentration transients caused by mixing in the interconnected three-body system of the fuel dump tanks, core and blanket has been coded for the IBM-704. The system of equations includes material balances, the dependence of critical temperature on core and blanket concentrations, and the effect of temperature (density) changes on flow rates. The controllable flow rates, the fuel dump tank weight and the initial conditions are input variables. Outputs include core and blanket… more
