Sample calculation -- GVR values for determining tritium separations costs

Description: This paper shows the calculations for the Gas Volume Ratio, defined as the Total Gas Volume/Target Volume. Using 20 tons of LiAlO{sub 2} as the target, 5028 cubic feet of tritium, protium, and helium are produced. The target volume equals 312.5 cubic feet of aluminate, so that the GVR = 5028/312.5 = 16.1.

K Reactor uncooled HCR: Equilibrium temperature study

Description: Temperature calculations were made on a proposed design of an uncooled horizonal control rod (HCR) for the K Reactors. The calculations were performed with the aid of a FORTRAN coded heat transfer program for the UNIVAC 1107. The results of the calculations indicate that such a control rod is feasible for.4400 Mw and 5000 Mw operation provided certain precautions are taken. These precautions include assuring good contact between the rod and the graphite in the high flux regions and Providing re… more

Feasibility Study for Perimeter Inspection of Shutdown Production Reactors

Description: In fulfillment of a request by the Atomic Energy Commission, an inspection system was developed by the Hanford Atomic Products Operation of General Electric Company during 1964 for periodic monitoring of production reactors should they be shut down under international agreement. Ground rules included access to the reactor building and to the reactor core itself for installation, checking, and removal of equipment for determining whether or not the reactor had been operated between periodic insp… more

Fuel failure Lot KY-928-Q D Reactor

Description: On February 13, D Reactor sustained a bumpered enriched fuel element failure in process tube 3289. The element failed in the twenty-first position from the rear of the charge and was from lot KY-928-Q. Visual examination of the failed element indicated the failure mechanism to be cleavage of the uranium core. This conclusion was substantiated in part by the appearance of ``worm tracks`` in the aluminum jacket. The fuel failure was detected approximately three hours after the reactor had resumed… more

Technical requirements and criteria for the coproduct target element

Description: The technical basis and criteria for five requirements are presented. Requirement 1 is that the coproduct target element shall be compatible with the driver element in the environment of the N-Reactor primary loop. Requirement 2 is that the target element shall be compatible with nuclear safety requirements under all credible accident conditions. Requirement 3 is that the coproduct element shall be unmistakable from other fuel element models in use or expected to be in use during the period 196… more
