Trip Report Consultation on Organic Reactor Coolants (open access)

Trip Report Consultation on Organic Reactor Coolants

There is a continuing high interest in the development of organic coolant technology for application to future Hanford reactors. In addition to the HAPO organic program, two other programs are being sponsored by the Atomic Energy Commission. These include the Naval Reactor program, aimed at a reactor for ship propulsion, and the Civilian Power Reactor program. Because of the similarity of the technical efforts in the three programs, an attempt is being made to establish effective liaison among the programs. To this end, a visit was made to several sites actively engaged in organic development work. These sites and their primary functions are detailed in this report.

Extraction of Uranyl Nitrate and Thorium Nitrate by Organic Solvents (open access)

Extraction of Uranyl Nitrate and Thorium Nitrate by Organic Solvents

Abstract. The separation of uranyl nitrate from aqueous solutions of 0.635 M thorium nitrate, 3 M nitric acid and 3 M calcium nitrate by extraction with organic solvents has been investigated. Solvents which gave good separations were 2-tthyl hexyl acetate, ethyl benzoate, n-butyl either and beta-beta- dichloroethyl ether. In general, higher esters, ethers and alcohols are better for separating uranium from thorium that the lower homologues. Several solvents were tested at lower nitric acid concentrations. Dibutyl cellosolve gave a very good separation when the solution was 0.1 M nitric acid. Of the solvent mixtures studied that of equal parts of n-butyl ether and dibutyl cellosolve gave a good separation.

Comparing structural loads in large pools evaluated with the LUSH code and current design methods (open access)

Comparing structural loads in large pools evaluated with the LUSH code and current design methods

Large pools for storing spent fuel elements from nuclear reactors are being proposed to augment the present storage capacity of pools located at nuclear power plants and fuel reprocessing plants. These pools will be part of either independent spent fuel storage installations or large reprocessing plants. Because of the large size of the pools, seismic loads are of significant interest, and in particular the adequacy of current design methods for calculating seismic loads was of special concern. An evaluation of design methods representative of current practice was carried out, and the results are summarized. The evaluation was based on a comparison of total structural loads obtained by these methods with those obtained using the LUSH code. The LUSH code offered a combination of latest technologies in structural analysis involving soil-structure interaction.

Technical evaluation of the adequacy of station electric distribution system voltages for the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1: selected issues program (Docket No. 50-244) (open access)

Technical evaluation of the adequacy of station electric distribution system voltages for the R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1: selected issues program (Docket No. 50-244)

This report documents the technical evaluation of the adequacy of the station electric distribution system voltages for the R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1. The evaluation is to determine if the onsite distribution system, in conjunction with the offsite power sources, has sufficient capacity to automatically start and operate all Class 1E loads within the equipment voltage ratings under certain conditions established by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The analysis submitted demonstrates that acceptable voltages will be supplied to the Class 1E equipment under worst case conditions.
