Stress analysis of LOFT penetrations 1A, 2A, 3F, 5A-F, 7A, 9A, 17A-B, 20A-C, 21-A (open access)

Stress analysis of LOFT penetrations 1A, 2A, 3F, 5A-F, 7A, 9A, 17A-B, 20A-C, 21-A

A stress analysis has been completed for the LOFT piping nozzles penetrating through the containment vessel in accordance with the 1965 edition of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. LOFT Specification S-1 states that the 1965 edition, including the addenda through the summer 1966 issue, be used. Stresses in the containment wall and in the nozzles result from mechanical and thermal loads on the piping that penetrate the nozzles. The mechanical loads were compiled in LTR 1217-7 and the temperature gradients were provided by the Thermal Analysis Branch. This analysis indicates that the nozzles and the containment wall are adequate to sustain the given mechanical and thermal loads. Therefore, it is recommended that paragraph number S1-04, section M of LOFT specification S-1 be revised to list the nozzle loads presented in Table 3, page A-3a. 9 refs.

Initiation and propagation of normal zones in a force-cooled tubular superconductor (open access)

Initiation and propagation of normal zones in a force-cooled tubular superconductor

A numerical analysis has been performed on the time-dependent equations of heat balance, gas convection, pressure drop, and mass-flow rate for supercritical helium gas flowing through a tubular superconductor. Three dimensional graphs of wall temperature, gas temperature, and mass-flow rate as functions of position and time are used to show the evolution of normal zones. In contrast to other methods of studying stability in superconductors by a quasi-steady-state analysis of critical-sized normal zones (minimum propagating zone), our analysis shows that stability is influenced by both the magnitude and the time dependence of the disturbance. As the current is increased in a system subjected to certain types of thermal disturbances, propagating normal zones may originate at positions well downstream from the site of the disturbance. At higher currents, propagating zones may originate both downstream and at the disturbed site, coalescing into a large propagating normal zone. With certain types of disturbances (such as an extraneous heat source over a short length of conductor), higher critical currents may be reached by fast current ramping, while with other types of disturbances (such as self heating in a degraded section of conductor), slow current ramping leads to higher critical currents.

Investigation of effect of single phase electrical faults at LOFT (open access)

Investigation of effect of single phase electrical faults at LOFT

This LTR presents the general basic engineering facts related to an open phase fault in a three phase power system commonly referred to as a single phase condition. It describes the probable results to electrical motors and describes the LOFT system design factors which minimize the likelihood of such a fault occurring at LOFT. It recognizes that the hazard of such a fault is a realistic threat and notes the types of relays designed to provide protection. Recommendations are made to perform a detailed engineering study to determine the most advantageous protective relay design, and to implement such a design by installation of the necessary devices and controls.

Evaluation of a nonevaporable getter pump for tritium handling in the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor

Lawrence Livermore Laboratory has tested and evaluated a commercially available getter pump for use with tritium in the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR). The pump contains Zr(84%)--Al in cartridge form with a concentric heating unit. It performed well in all tests, except for frequent heater failures.

Degradation mechanism of Nb/sub 3/Sn composite wires under tensile strain at 4. 2 K (open access)

Degradation mechanism of Nb/sub 3/Sn composite wires under tensile strain at 4. 2 K

Bronze-processed Nb/sub 3/Sn composite wire conductors exhibit changes in their superconducting parameters when strained in tension. This paper describes a detailed study of the effect of strain on critical current and an analysis by optical and SEM techniques of crack formation in the Nb/sub 3/Sn layer under strain. The effect of strain history on both reversible and irreversible changes in critical current and the roles of differential thermal contraction induced residual strains and of Nb/sub 3/Sn cracking are discussed.
