Thermal stability of zirconia-s and thoria-base fuels (LWBR Development Program) (open access)

Thermal stability of zirconia-s and thoria-base fuels (LWBR Development Program)

Vapor densities and/or dissociation pressures of UO/sub 2/, ThO/sub 2/, ZrO/sub 2/, ThO/sub 2/-8 and -20 wt % UO/sub 2/, and ZrO/sub 2/-20 and -50 wt % UO/sub 2/ were obtained in the range from 2000 to 3000/sup 0/K by the transpiration technique. The UO/sub 2/-ZrO/sub 2/ system exhibited marked positive deviation from ideality, indicative of a strong tendency toward immiscibility. The UO/sub 2/-ThO/sub 2/ system was found to behave almost ideally. On the basis of the vapor pressures of UO/sub 2/ and of ThO/sub 2/ and the activity values it would be expected that compositions containing 1 mole % or more of UO/sub 2/ would volatilize by preferentially losing UO/sub 2/. A composition containing slightly less than 1 mole % UO/sub 2/ should prove to be the congruently subliming composition. O/sub 2/-dissociation pressures were determined for stoichiometric UO/sub 2/ and for a composition on either side of the stoichiometric one. At 2360/sup 0/K, UO/sub 2.03 +- 0.01/, UO/sub 2.00 +- 0.01/, and UO/sub 1.97 +- 0.01/ exhibited O/sub 2/-dissociation pressures of 1 x 10/sup -7/, 4.3 x 10/sup -10/, and 3 x 10/sup -12/ atm, respectively. From determinations of vapor density and measurements of O/sub 2/ pressure, pressure-temperature-composition relations …

Borehole Gravity Meter Observations in Drill Hole Test Well-B, Yucca Flat, Nevada Test Site (open access)

Borehole Gravity Meter Observations in Drill Hole Test Well-B, Yucca Flat, Nevada Test Site

Abstract: "Fifteen in situ interval densities were calculated from the borehole gravity meter observations made in Test Well-B. The weighted average density for all the rocks sampled by the gravity meter is 1.83 gm/cc. The alluvium density ranges from 1.71 to 1.82 gm/cc and averages 1.76 gm/cc. The lake beds range from 1.91 to 1.93 gm/cc and average 1.92 gm/cc. The Rainier Mesa Member averages 1.83 gm/cc. The Tiva Canyon Member averages 1.74 gm/cc and the upper 110 feet of Topopah Spring Member has a density of 2.30 gm/cc."
