The Application of a Nominal 48 WT % U-Al Alloy to Plate-type Aluminum Research Reactor Fuel Elements

Description: Under the Atoms-For-Peace Plan, the specification that uranium be limited to 20% enrichment in the U/sup 236/ isotope has necessitated development of a highly-concentrated uranium--aluminum alloy as the fuel material in the composite aluminum plates of research reactor fuel elements. Efforts have been directed to determining the suitability of a nominal 48 wt.% U--Al alloy in relation to previously established procedures for manufacturing platetype aluminum fuel elements. Increasing the uranium… more

Experiments on the Release of Fission Products from Molten Reactor Fuels

Description: Experiments in the controlled melting of irradiated fuel speciman, particularly of the APPR, STR, and MTR types, have confirmed that prolonged heating in air at temperatures in excess of the melting point results in the release of a large portion of the radioactivity. On the other hand, a moderate amount of heating in air or steam sufficient only to melt a specimen results mainly in the partial volatilization of rare gases, iodine, bromine, cesium, and rubidium. In the presence of air or water … more

Two Group Calculations for Flux Distribution and Critical Mass in Clean Cold ORR Cores

Description: A series of two-group calculations has been made on the Oracle for the purpose of obtaining critical-mass and flux distribution data for various ORR core configurations. The 3G3R code of Bate, Einstein, and Kinney was used, together with the RSP code developed by Nelson. This made it possible to obtain results for the three-dimensional case. The results, which are presented graphically, are intended to serve as a guide for the design of experiments until such time as actual measurements are ava… more
