TRANSIENT HEATING OF UC FUEL ELEMENTS IN THE KEWB FACILITY (open access)

TRANSIENT HEATING OF UC FUEL ELEMENTS IN THE KEWB FACILITY

The feasibility of using the KEWB reactor as a pulsed neutron radiation source for use in studies of fuel element transient heating was studied. UC fuel rod samples were heated in the reactor. It was found that flux distribution in fuel samples could be mapped and thermal conductivity measurements for UC could be made by using fast response thermocouples distributed radially in the sample.

PROMPT RADIATION EFFECTS ON CABLES AND LINEAR POWER INSTRUMENTATION CHANNELS (open access)

PROMPT RADIATION EFFECTS ON CABLES AND LINEAR POWER INSTRUMENTATION CHANNELS

Tests were conducted to determine the amount of error introduced in reactor power data by radiation-induced voltages in cables and electrometer preamplifier chassis. The results, obtained near the central exposure facility of the KEWB (Reacter Safety Experiments), showed no observable radiation effects under the conditions of present use. Cable insulation resistance was measured during the radiation bursts. (C.J.G.)

RECYCLE OF UO$sub 2$F$sub 2$ IN THE FLUOROX PROCESS: REACTION OF UO$sub 2$F$sub 2$ WITH HYDROGEN (open access)

RECYCLE OF UO$sub 2$F$sub 2$ IN THE FLUOROX PROCESS: REACTION OF UO$sub 2$F$sub 2$ WITH HYDROGEN

The reaction of U0/sub 2/F/sub 2/ with hydrogen at 700 to 850 deg C was briefly investigated since it could constitute a major step in the recycle of U0/ sub 2/F/sub 2/ in the Fluorox process. The reaction in this temperature range proceeds according to the equation U0/sub 2/F/sub 2/ + H/sub 2/ yields U0/sub 2/ + 2 HF. Rates of the chemical reaction were not obtsined, since, with the thermogravimetric technique used, the rate-controlling process was bed diffusion. However, there is no doubt that the rate of chemical reaction is sufficiently high for the desired application. No significant amount of UF/sub 4/ was formed by the back-reaction, U0/sub 2/ + 4 HF yields UF/sub 4/ + 2 H/sub 2/0. (auth)

The Determination of Chlorine in Polyurethane Plastic (open access)

The Determination of Chlorine in Polyurethane Plastic

Chlorine may be determined in polyurethane by gravimetric or spectrophotometric techniques. The sample is burned in a special combustion tube with two oxygen inlets, the products of combustion are absorbed in a solution containing sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide, and the chlorine is measured either gravimetrically as silver chloride or spectrophotometrically using mercuric thiocyanate and ferric perchlorate. Eighteen determinations of cblorine in known solutions of sodium chloroacetate or perchloric acid gave an average recovery of 98.3% with a standard deviation of 2.8%. (auth)

MECHANICAL PROPERTY AND FORMABILITY STUDIES ON UNALLOYED PLUTONIUM (open access)

MECHANICAL PROPERTY AND FORMABILITY STUDIES ON UNALLOYED PLUTONIUM

The effect of temperature and testing speed on the tension and compression properties of unalloyed plutouium was studied in the alpha , beta , gamma , and delta phases. Compressive formability data were obtained for a load of 100,000 lbs in the aforementioned phases. In addition, preliminary creep, tension impact, and torsion data for alpha -phase plutonium are reported. Extrusion constants and pressures for the beta , gamma , and delta phases were obtained. The roomtemperature tension and compression properties of the beta - and #gg-extruded plutonium were determined. Metallo graphic studies were made to determine the effect of tension, compression, and extrusion, in the indicated phases, on the microstructure of as-cast plutonium. (auth)

IGNITION BEHAVIOR AND KINETICS OF OXIDATION OF THE REACTOR METALS, URANIUM, ZIRCONIUM, PLUTONIUM, AND THORIUM, AND BINARY ALLOYS OF EACH. A Status Report (open access)

IGNITION BEHAVIOR AND KINETICS OF OXIDATION OF THE REACTOR METALS, URANIUM, ZIRCONIUM, PLUTONIUM, AND THORIUM, AND BINARY ALLOYS OF EACH. A Status Report

>The importance of prevention of fires and explosions involving uranium, zircomum, plutonium, and thorium, which are of particular interest to the nuclear energy program, made imperative the study of their ignition behavior and oxidation kinetics. Methods of measurements of ignition characteristics of uranium and zirconium were developed and used to determine the effects of variables, such as surface preparation, metallurgical history, specific area (sample size), additives to the metal, and oxygen content and presence of moisture in the oxidizing gas. The study of ignition characteristics was supported by study of the effects of similar variables on the kinetics of oxidation of uranium and zirconium and binary alloys of each. The oxidation of uranium always proceeded in two linear stages over the temperature range of 125 to 295 deg C at pressures of 20, 50, 200, and 800 mm of oxygen. The temperature dependences of both stages indicate an activation energy dependent on pressure. The presence of ten additive elements in uranium metal caused only very small effects on the oxidation. The oxidation of zirconium was independent of pressure and proceeded according to a cubic rate law over the temperature range from 400 to 900 deg C, with an activation energy …
