Buckling Measurements : Heavy Natural Uranium Tubular Fuel Assemblies (open access)

Buckling Measurements : Heavy Natural Uranium Tubular Fuel Assemblies

One-region buckling measurements that were made on a series of D/sub 2/O- moderated lattices of heavy uranium metal tubes in the Process Development Pile at Savannah River Laboratory are presented. The purposes of these measurements are to provide normalization points for lattice bucklings and to extend the study of natural uranium- D/sub 2/O systems. The dependence of buckiing on the moderator-to-fuel ratio is studied for two types of lattices.
