Improvements in the hot press process

Description: The hot press process has been altered so as to eliminate the slight wrinkling near the ID base. This was done by incorporating a three minute time delay in the pressing cycle. The pressing time was decreased to five minutes to restrict formation of the brittle intermetallic compound, Ni{sub 2}Al{sub 3}.

ON THE THEORY OF THE POLARIZATION OF NUCLEONS BY DEUTERONS

Description: In anticipation of the availability of the phase-shifts and mixing parameters, which are being calculated by Bransden, Smith, and Tate for the elastic scattering of nucleons by deuterons (with tensor forces), the von Neuman density matrix and Racah algebra were used to derive expressions for the average value of the spin operator in the emerging beam of nucleons after single and double scattering from unpolarized deuterons. The values of the geometrical factors which appear in these expressions… more

IRRADIATION OF CLAD GRAPHITE IN HIGH-TEMPERATURE HIGH-PRESSURE CO$sub 2$

Description: Graphite specimens fully clad with Type 310 stainless, Type 446 stainless, or Inconel were irradiated in a 1000-psi CO/sub 2/ environment for a period of 4 weeks at approximately 1300 F followed by 1 week at 1500 F. The fast-neutron-plus-gmma dose rate was estimated at 8 x 10/sup 7/ rads per hr. The gas environment was sampled and replenished eight times during the experiment. After 60 hr at about 1350 F, the CO content had in creased from a negligible value to 3.6 vol. %. It then decreased ste… more

Processing of Molten Salt Power Reactor Fuel

Description: ABS> Fuel reprocessing methods are being investigated for molten salt nuclear reactors which use LiF--BeF/sub 2/ salt as a solvent for UF/sub 4/ and ThF/sub 4/. A liquid HF dissolution procedure coupled with fluorination has been developed for recovery of the uranium and LiF- BeF/sub 2/ solvent salt which is highly enriched in Li/sup 7/. The recovered salt is decontaminated in the process from the major reactor poisons; namely, rare earths and neptunium. A brief investigation of alternate metho… more

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF HELIUM AND HYDROGEN AT HIGH TEMPERATURES

Description: A steady-state hot wire method for measuring the thermal conductivity of light gases in the temperature range 1200 to 2100 K is described. In contrast to other methods, free convection currents and large temperature gradients occur; convection effects are shown to be negligible, and an experimental procedure for eliminating the large gradient effects is described. The thermal conductivity of helium is found to follow the equation deg F. Cores o x 10/sup 6/ = 991 + 0.678(T - 1200) cal/sec cm deg… more

FREE ENERGY FUNCTIONS FOR GASEOUS MONOXIDES

Description: Free energy functions for gaseous nmonoxides were calculated from presently available spectroscopic results. However, the electronic contributions to the free energy functions were estimated. A simple ionic model was assumed since the molecular electronic states for most of these oxides are not known. In some instances where experimental data are insufficient to calculate the interatomic distances and the equilibrium frequencies of vibrations, they were estimated. The results of these calculati… more

Preferred Orientation in Rolled and in Recrystallized High-Purity Uranium Rod. Final Report of Metallurgy Program.4.1.17

Description: The preferred orientation of a relatively small piece of high-purity uranium rod, rolled to an 85% reduction at 300 deg C, has been determined in the as-rolled and in the recrystallized conditions. The 12 different charts obtained indicated that the as-rolled texture could be described as a duplex (041) and (352) with the (041) being the major component and with considerable spread about each component. The recrystallized rod showed approximate (041) and (392) components with considerable sprea… more
