Storage of radioactive aqueous wastes from Purex processes (open access)

Storage of radioactive aqueous wastes from Purex processes

The radioactive liquid wastes from a separations facility are customarily stored in underground waste storage tanks. The wastes from the proposed Purex Separations Plant will have a high concentration of the fission products and will result in a large evolution of heat. The possibility of these wastes boiling due to radio-disintegration of fission products has made a survey of the problem desirable. This report lists the results of this investigation.

Heat transfer burnout of Mark VIII fuel (open access)

Heat transfer burnout of Mark VIII fuel

The operating conditions to which the special Mark VIII quatrefoils will be exposed during the proposed piloting program have been compared with the conditions required to cause burnout, using an established method of calculating these conditions. The results of this comparison permit the following conclusions to be drawn: (1) With normal flow of coolant through the special elements the heat flux to be encountered in the R-8 cycle (1400 MW) will be 70% or that required to cause burnout (30% margin from burnout). (2) With a reduction of coolant flow to 82% of normal through one tube of a special element, burnout of that fuel column is possible in the R-8 cycle. (3) In the R-6 cycle (1280 MW), the margin from burnout in the special Mark VIII quatrefoils is 42% with full flow and 20% with the above reduced coolant flow. A similar comparison of operating conditions predicted for the L-3 cycle (full Mark VIII charge) shows that, even at the highest power level (1250 MW), the margin from burnout is greater than 55% with normal flow and 40% with reduced flow.

Long cartridge fuel elements for safe failure (open access)

Long cartridge fuel elements for safe failure

``Safe-failure`` is an important criterion for power reactor fuel elements designed to contain core materials which react rapidly with high-temperature coolant. Out-of-pile experiments indicate that, without a ``safe-failure`` fuel element, expensive and possibly catastrophic reactor shutdowns may occur if the fuel element jacket fails during irradiation in high temperature water. That jacket failures occasionally will occur, regardless of the material or fabrication process involved, seems to be generally agreed. Fuel elements involving cluster arrangements, oxide cores, and wafer assemblies with ``bulkheads`` for compartmentalization have been proposed as being relatively safe in event of jacket failure. A fourth possibility is a type of long cartridge fuel element.

An Investigation of the Application of the Gas Generator-Free Turbine Cycle to a Nuclear Powered Aircraft (open access)

An Investigation of the Application of the Gas Generator-Free Turbine Cycle to a Nuclear Powered Aircraft

This study has investigated the feasibility of installing a gas generator-free turbine type power plant in the R3Y aircraft, using a circulating fuel reactor as a power source. Two variations of the cycle were considered. The split flow cycle bleeds high temperature, high pressure air from the gas generator directly to the free turbine in the wing. The through flow cycle partially expands the high temperature, high pressure air through the compressor turbine of the gas generator then directs the compressor-turbine exhaust air to the free turbine in the wing. Design parameters of pressure ratio, radiator depth, radiation flow density, and hot gas duct size were optimized to give minimum weight per shaft horsepower of the complete power plant. The weight of a split flow power plant capable of supplying 22,000 shaft horsepower was found to be 116,600 pounds. The weight of a similar through flow power plant was found to be 119,900 pounds. The reactor power required in both cases was 70 megawatts. The nominal gross weight of the R3Y airplane is 175,000 pounds. With pay loads of approximately 20,000 pounds, either nuclear conversion will have a gross weight of 200,000 pounds. It was found that either cycle could …

The Effects of Atomic Weapons on Glazing and Window Construction. Annex 3.5 of Scientific Director's Report of Atomic Weapon Tests at Eniwetok. 1951. Operation Greenhouse

BS>Various types of wood, steel, and aluminum window construction, glazed with plastic and different kinds of glass, were installed on four sides of a test structure during the greenhouse tests in order to determine their relative resistance to an atomic blast. The degree of protection from flying glass provided by mounting Venetian blinds, insect screens, and 1/4-in. mesh wire netting on the inside of window openings was also determined. The best results seem to indicate that the resistances of different types of glass to an atomic blast are approximately proportional to their strength in supporting static loads. Glass mounted in a rigid frame is less likely to be broken than if mounted in a flexible frame which may be distorted by the blast. Fragments from wire or safety glass are less dangerous to personnel than fragments from other types of glass, and plastic is less likely to break than glass, Commercial types of Venetian blinds and insect screens afforded littie or no protection against flying glass fragments at the distance at which tested; however, a blind with some of the parts reinforced and properly anchored to the window opening would. probably give some protection at a distance of 3 miles …
