100 Areas, January 1 through January 7, 1946

During this period the B Pile operated at its assigned power level of 25 MW below rated level, except for 10 hours on January 5. The operating level of the D Pile remained at 25 MW below rating. The rate gain in excess reactivity during equilibrium operation has been about 1.8 inhours/day. On January 1, the power level of the F Pile was dropped to 25 MW below rating from its previous rated level. Rod A was in a favorable position to make a determination of the reactivity coefficients at the time. The data does indicate an upper limit of {minus}0.21 ih/MW for the metal coefficient. An overall coefficient of 0.20 ih/MW was obtained. The unit was shut down on January 3 for discharge of 129 tubes of metal. A summary of the present reactivity states of the B, D, and F Piles are given. Iron content of process water for the three piles is also given.
