Contraction of graphite: A comparison of laboratory and production reactor data, Part 2, KE and KW Reactors

Description: Part 1 of this two-part report presented a comparison of the irradiation-induced contraction rates obtained on standard-size graphite samples and the apparent moderator contraction rates of H, DR and C Reactors. The distortion trends of the top center of the graphite stacks, from which the apparent moderator contraction rates were derived, were presented as a function of cumulative power generation since start-up for each of the six older Hanford reactors. Since KE and KW Reactors are of identi… more

Distribution of time between unscheduled outages

Description: A study is in progress in which reactor operations will be simulated on the computer, the primary purpose being to evaluate the costs associated with various administrative alternatives which may be followed in conducting the overall operation, in addition to defining how operational costs are affected by such things as changes in fuel quality. The problem is complicated by the fact that the operation of the reactors is largely affected by random occurrences; no one can predict exactly when a t… more

Calculations of the surface heat flux and fuel temperatures for PRTR MK-I PuO{sub 2}-UO{sub 2} fuel element with segregated PuO{sub 2}

Description: The methods used to fabricate the present loading of PuO{sub 2}-UO{sub 2} fuel elements for the Plutonium Recycle Test Reactor have resulted in alternating bands of high and low PuO{sub 2} concentration along each rod of the 19-rod elements. These bands are repeated every 1/2 or 1 inch along the length of the rod, depending on whether the loading of the oxides was done in 160 or 80 increments. This non-uniform distribution of PuO{sub 2} results in alternate regions of high and low heat generati… more
