Distribution coefficient data and preliminary estimates of movement of radionuclides, Tatum salt dome, Lamar County, Mississippi. Technical letter: Dribble 31

Description: Estimates are made relating radionuclide movement to ground water velocity as part of the safety program for a proposed experiment to detonate nuclear devices within the Tatum salt dome. The estimates are based on distribution coefficients obtained from laboratory studies. Core samples obtained from hydrologic test well HT-3, Tatum salt dome, Lamar County, Mississippi, were equilibrated with radionuclides in solutions simulating aquifer waters found in the area. The combinations of Cenozoic san… more

Interim report I, production test IP-560-A, half-plant low dichromate: Low pH water treatment at C reactor

Description: Visual examination from 600 fuel elements., 300 discharged from the near side and 300 from the far side, showed the following results: (1) Primary ledge corrosion vas evident on 26 per cent of the fuel pieces, 21 per cent on the near side and 30 per cent on the far side. (2) Primary groove corrosion was evident on 3 per cent of the fuel pieces, 6 per cent on the near side and 1 per cent on the far side. (3) None of the fuel pieces exhibited severe localized corrosion. These results agree with p… more

ARMY REACTORS PROGRAM ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT FOR PERIOD ENDING OCTOBER 31, 1962

Description: ; 8 7 < 8 < : : : 6 9 9 = < 9 < : 5 < > ;" icipation in the program continued to include review, inspection, and support in various areas of reactor technology. An advanced fuel irradiation test program was established that is to be conducted in the pressurized-water loop in the Oak Ridge Research Reactor. Review of the design of the MH-1A reactor was initiated. This reactor, a pressurized-water system fueled with low- enrichment bulk UO/sub 2/ clad with stainless steel, is being designed as a … more

SHAPED BURNABLE POISON DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM UNDER THE EURATOM PROGRAM. Quarterly Progress Report, December 1, 1962-February 28, 1963

Description: Nuclear cross section data for gadolinium, Gd/sup 155/, and Gd/sup 157/ were compiled. Average absorption cross sections were computed assuming Maxwellian thermal spectra for moderator temperatures from 70 to 600 deg F. Poison demand curves were computed for a boiling water reactor with an H/sub 2/O- to-UO/sub 2/ ratio of 2.6, U/sup 235/ enrichments from 1.8 to 3.8 wt%, zirconium or stainless steel as clad, and fuel depletions of 10,000 to 25,000 Mwd/t. Based on the above poison demand curves, … more

STEAM SEPARATION TECHNOLOGY UNDER THE EURATOM PROGRAM. Quarterly Progress Report, January 1, 1963-March 31, 1963

Description: For purposes of analysis and experiment the centrifugal type downflow separator was divided into the inlet nozzle, separating zone, and outlet nozzle. The analysis and experiments have resulted in a new outlet design, a method of determining separating length, and a more effective inlet nozzle. The results have caused a reduction in pressure loss from 5 ft of water for the reference design to 1.5 ft of water for the new design at a flow rate of 1400 gpm. A reactor core riser and downcomer regio… more

IMPROVED ZIRCONIUM ALLOYS. Quarterly Report, January 1, 1963-March 31, 1963

Description: On the basis of 4800 hr exposure to 680 l F water, a number of ternary compositions were shown to have corrosion resistance superior to Zircaloy-2. In addition, the strength and hydrogen pickup properties of the alloys were generally improved over Zircaloy-2. The promising alloys were based on the binary materials Zr- 1Sb, Zr- 1Cr, Zr0.5Nb, and Zr-0.5Sn to which small percentages of Te, Ge, Cr, or Fe were added. At present, 680 l F water corrosion data for an exposure time of 5000 hr are availa… more
