Report on preliminary laboratory experiments investigating consequences of failure of front hydraulic fittings in K reactor geometry

Description: The purpose of this report is to present the results of a brief series of transient heat transfer experiments directed toward determining the possibility of damage to a K reactor should a front hydraulic connector fail to a tube containing I&E fuel elements. Nuclear heating of a train of 32 I&E slugs was simulated by electrically heating a rod in a K geometry process tube. Failure of a front fitting to such a tube was simulated by simultaneously and rapidly closing a valve in the water supply t… more

Fretting Corrosion Irradiation Tests

Description: The Zircaloy-a clad, swaged UOa, 19-rod cluster fuel element for the PRTR was designed to use Zircaloy-a wire spirally wrapped around the fuel rods as spacing members. Such use of unbonded, Zircaloy-a spacers introduced the possibility of fretting corrosion. This paper reports preliminary irradiation tests conducted to determine whether or not such corrosions occurs in this fuel element design.
