The SNAP II Power Conversion System. Topical Report No. 4. Turbine Design and Testing (open access)

The SNAP II Power Conversion System. Topical Report No. 4. Turbine Design and Testing

SNAP II is the designation for a 3 KW nuclear auxiliary power unit to be used in a satellite vehicle. The SNAP II system consists of a reactor heat source, a mercury Rankine engine and an alternator. A two stage, full admission, axial flow turbine was chose for the APU application. Design details and test results are presented in this report. This work was performed under a subcontract to to Atomics International as part of the Atomic Energy Commission Contract No. AT(11-1)-GEN-8.

Core I Control Rod Drive Mechanisms Periodic Tests. Section I. Ninth Performance. Test Results DL-S-148-I, T-550011

The purpose of the test was to determine the operating conditions of the rod drive mechanisms so that operating personnel may be informed concerning malfunctioning mechanisms. The results the this test favorably agree with previous results. The operating characteristics of the rod drive mechanisms checked in this test have not changed appreciably.

Control Air Conditions at the Reactor Chamber. Section I. Test Results DL-S-269

The purpose of the test was to determine the ability of the Control Air System to provide the necessary quantity and quality of clean, dry air to keep the rod drive mechanism stator and position indicator housings at about 3 PSIG in order to avoid low stator resistances resulting from condensation during plant cooldown. The Control Air System is capable of providing the quality of air specified in AEC letter SBO:JWF:100 dated November 17, 1958 of less than 44 grains of moisture per lb. of air in the control air line nearest the reactor chamber.

Station Radiation Level Survey. Section II. Fifth Performance. Core I, Seed 1. Test Results DL-S-157

The purpose of the test was to determine the level of the radiation field in the Turbine Plant during a significant power run. The initial power level survey had an average radiation level of 0.02 mr/hr. this survey showed and average radiation level of 0.03, which was considered background level. this radiation level was far below the maximum allowable level of 2 mr/hyr. No Neutrons were detected.

Effect of Core Corrosion Sample Assembly on HRT Critical Concentration (open access)

Effect of Core Corrosion Sample Assembly on HRT Critical Concentration

An estimate has been made of the critical fuel concentration in the HRT, taking into account the effect of the core corrosion sample assembly. The estimate is based on a number of previous calculations of critical concentration in an un-poisoned reactor and one calculation of critical concentration as a function of poison level. The makeup of the first core corrosion sample assembly was used in calculating equivalent neutron poisoning effects. Figure 1 shows the estimated critical concentration as a function of temperature with the corrosion sample assembly in place. At 280°C, the assembly raises the critical concentration by 0.6 g U-235/kg D2O. This effect is equivalent to a uniformly distributed poison equal to 4.1% of the fission cross section. The equivalent poison is greater at lower temperatures, where the uranium concentration is lower.

Trip to Selas Corporation of America

On May 23, 1957, a visit was made by the writer to the Selas Corporation of American in Dresher, Pennsylvania. The purpose of the visit was to discuss further investigations into methods of tubesheet brazing by direct heating. Original work along these lines has been carried out at ORNL and is covered by a memo (CF-57-4-57) to W.D. Manly, dated April 16, 1957, and entitled : Investigation of Tubesheet Brazing by a Method of Direct Heating.

Liquid-Liquid Extraction of Uranium and Plutonium from Hydrochloric Acid Solution with TRI (Iso-Octyl) Amine.  Separation of Uranium and Plutonium from Thorium and Fission Products (open access)

Liquid-Liquid Extraction of Uranium and Plutonium from Hydrochloric Acid Solution with TRI (Iso-Octyl) Amine. Separation of Uranium and Plutonium from Thorium and Fission Products

A new and rapid method for the liquid-liquid extraction of uranium and plutonium from hydrochloric acid solution is based on the use of tri(iso-octyl)amine dissolved in xylene or methylisobutylketone. Uranium and/or plutonium are separated from thorium, alkalis, alkaline earths, rare earths, zirconium, niobium, ruthenium and other elements which do not form anionic species under the conditions described. The technique may be used for either tracer or macro quantities of uranium. Several practical applications of the method for the separations chemist are proposed.
