Radiation Effects in Circular Electron Accelerators (open access)

Radiation Effects in Circular Electron Accelerators

"The effects of radiation emission on the motion of electrons in high energy synchrotrons are analyzed. The damping rates and quantum excitation of the three principal modes of oscillation are derived for strong focusing and constant gradient accelerators. Methods for correcting the radiation effects for strong focusing accelerators are discussed."

Dynamic Response of Reactor Plant to Load Changes. Section I. First Performance. Core I, Seed 1. Test Results DL-S-251 (T-612390) (open access)

Dynamic Response of Reactor Plant to Load Changes. Section I. First Performance. Core I, Seed 1. Test Results DL-S-251 (T-612390)

The purpose of the test was to determine the responses of the plant when subjected to load transients exceeding the design magnitudes, and to determine the maximum load changes, positive or negative, that the plant can sustain. The reactor plant responded satisfactorily to all load transients. The only limits exceed were the pressurizer high and low level alarm points. The magnitude of the transients and the time required for the plant to return to equilibrium was dependent upon the size of the the load change. The pressurizer spray was effective in reducing reactor coolant pressure positive surges; however, this resulted in larger negative surges than when the spray valve was closed.

A Numerical Integration Scheme for Problems Involving Contour Representations (open access)

A Numerical Integration Scheme for Problems Involving Contour Representations

The definition of the Lebesgue integral is used to develop a numerical integration method in which the integral is evaluated directly from a contour plot of the function. It is useful in working from weather maps, potential surfaces, etc., but was particularly designed to assist in reducing blast diffraction space-time diagrams to simple, meaningful quantities.

A Comparison of the Neutron Yields from Low-Voltage Sources (open access)

A Comparison of the Neutron Yields from Low-Voltage Sources

The description of the thick-target neutron yields from the D(t,n)He4 and the D(d,n)He3 reactions is calculated as a function of the energy of the bombarding particles. For 60-kev particles the ratio is 108. I increases to 168 at 100 Kev and to 194 for 120-kev particles. A qualitative discussion of the yields from various deuterium target leads to the conclusion that the greatest yield would come from the target which has the lowest stopping cross section per deuterium atom.

Summary of Runs 1, 2, and 3 in High-Temperature, High-Pressure Titanium Loop (open access)

Summary of Runs 1, 2, and 3 in High-Temperature, High-Pressure Titanium Loop

Simulated reactor fuel solutions were circulated at temperatures as high as 365°C in a small titanium pump loop. A hydroclone separator separated heavy phases formed at high temperatures. As the temperature of the solution was increased beyond the two-liquid-phase temperature (327°C), the salt concentration of the light phase decreased and the acid concentration increased. The mole ratios of uranium to sulfate, uranium to copper, and uranium to nickel in the light phase decreased in the same proportion in the temperature range of 330 to 365°C. Corrosion of titanium and Zircaloy-2 specimens was insignificant during the relatively short exposure periods.

Solution of the Monoenergetic Boltzmann Equation in an Infinite Homogeneous Nonmultiplying Medium with Linearly Anisotropic Scattering and Isotropic Plane Source (open access)

Solution of the Monoenergetic Boltzmann Equation in an Infinite Homogeneous Nonmultiplying Medium with Linearly Anisotropic Scattering and Isotropic Plane Source

The solution of the monoenergetic Boltzmann equation in an infinite homogeneous, nonmultiplying medium with linearly anisotropic scattering and an isotropic plane source is given and compared with the corresponding solution for isotropic scattering. The effective source strength for the asymptotic flux turns out to be the same as that for isotropic scattering to first order in Σa/Σ.

The Use of Boron for Fluoride Complexing in Thorex Dissolver Solutions (open access)

The Use of Boron for Fluoride Complexing in Thorex Dissolver Solutions

Preliminary measurements of the corrosion of titanium were made in 13 M HNO3-0.05 M fluoride using 0.1 M H3BO3 as a liquid and vapor phase complexing agent. Titanium Ax-55 was attacked at average rates of 0.58 and 0.33 mils/month in the liquid and vapor. In dissolver solutions containing 0.5 and 1.0 M titanium, all rates were less than 0.1 mils/month.

Flame Photometric Determination of Iron Parts I, II, III and IV (open access)

Flame Photometric Determination of Iron Parts I, II, III and IV

A study was made of a method for the flame photometric determination of iron. In Part I of this report, the flame emission spectrum of iron, measured by means of a Beckman Model DU spectrophotometer with a flame attachment, is compated to that measured with an ORNL high-sensitivity, recording, single-beam instrument, in order to determine which instrument is best suited for this application. Although it was found that the Beckman product has the higher resolving power over the wavelength region of 360 to 400mu, it does no posses the sensitivity or ease of operation of the ORNL instrument. On this basis, the ORNL flame spectrophotometer is used in subsequent tests. After selecting the best-suited instrument for the flame photometric determination of iron, it was necessary to establish the optimum operating conditions for this particular method. These conditions are described in Part II.

Comments on the Transportation of Irradiated Fuel and Radioactive Wastes for M Louis Armand, Euratom Group (open access)

Comments on the Transportation of Irradiated Fuel and Radioactive Wastes for M Louis Armand, Euratom Group

General considerations involving the transportation of irradiated fuel and radioactive wastes are reviewed. It is assumed that many reactors will supply feed to a few large multipurpose chemical plants which ultimately send radioactive waste to a few disposal sites. General economic considerations of irradiated fuel reprocessing, economic aspects of the nuclear economy complex, growth predictions of the nuclear power economy in the U.S., general requirements for the shipment of fuel and waste, regulations applicable to fuel shipment, and permissible radiation levels are discussed.

Inert Atmospheres in Non-Vacuum Chambers for Welding Applications (open access)

Inert Atmospheres in Non-Vacuum Chambers for Welding Applications

In the HRP Welding program, a major part of the welding and fabrication, and some of the testing, is performed using an inert atmosphere. the use of the inert gas consumable arc welding process and dry box welding or other work in a dry box comes within this category. Since much of the work in the project make use of, or requires, inert atmospheres, a general discussion follows of the methods used, description of equipment, processes, quality of atmospheres, purity requirements, kinetics of metal-gas reactions, and the proper application of the equipment and methods use din obtaining the desired results.

Analytical Chemistry Division Semiannual Progress Report For Period Ending April 20,1955

The development of ionic methods for the determination of corrosion products in the highly radioactive Homogeneous Reactor (HR) fuels has been of major interest in the work of the Ionic Analyses Laboratory. Methods for the spectrophotometric determination of aluminum and for the polarographic determination of iron in HR fuels have been developed. The polarographic determination of molybdenum in uranyl sulfate solutions was studied. A polarographic method for the determination of zinc was developed. A fluorometric method for the determination of microgram amounts of fluoride was studied. Three organic reagents were investigated as precipitants for microgram quantities of zirconium in HR fuel. The automatic photometric titration technique was applied to the determination of thorium and of sulfate. A method was developed for the ionexchange separation and potentiometric titration of cobalt. The ultraviolet absorption spectra of technetium and rhenium were studied.
