Final report on the fuel and target element evaluation at increased irradiation levels for tritium production: Production tests 313-105-35-M and 105-562-A

The C Reactor was proposed for producing tritium. To evaluate the performance of enriched U-Al J elements and natural Li-Al alloy target (N) elements, 60 charges containing both J and N pieces were irradiated under a variety of conditions in C Reactor.

Isotope-producing control rods

In accordance with the NPR technical criteria which require that provisions be made for useful isotope production in the control rods, both isotope-producing and non-production rods have been designed. Design Analysis has been requested by Reactor Plant Design to specify the number and location of the isotope rods for the initial installation. This choice, however, cannot be made without knowledge of the fuel element characteristics and a prediction of the reactor operating techniques. Some of … more
