Evaluation of Buried Conduits as Personnel Shelters (open access)

Evaluation of Buried Conduits as Personnel Shelters

Supersedes ITR-1421. Twelve large-diameter buried conduit sections of various shapes were tested in the 60- to l49-psi overpressure region of Burst Priscilla to make an empirical determination of the degree of personnel protection afforded by commercially available steel and concrete conduits at depths of burial of 5, 7.5, and 10 feet below grade. Essentially, it was desired to assure that Repartment of Defense Class I, 100psi and comparable radiations, and Class II, 50-psi and comparable radiations, protection is afforded by use of such conduits of various configurations. Measurements were made of free-field overpressure at the ground surface above the structure; pressure inside the structures; acceleration of each structure; deflection of each structure; dust inside each structure; fragmentary missiles inside the concrete structures; and gamma and neutron radiation dose inside each structure. All buried conduit sections tested provided adequate Class I protection for the conditions under which the conduits were tested. Standard 8-foot concrete sewer pipe withstood 126-psi overpressure without significant damage, minor tension cracks observed; standard 10-gage corrugated-steel 8-foot circular conduit sections withstood 126- psi overpressure without significant damage; and standard 10-gage corrugated- steel cattle-pass conduits withstood 149-psi overpressure without significant damage. Durations of positive pressure were from 206 to …

Development test IP-342-AG increase of bulk outlet water temperature 105-DR (open access)

Development test IP-342-AG increase of bulk outlet water temperature 105-DR

The objective of this test is to determine the DR-Reactor effluent systems characteristics under 95 degrees Celsius bulk temperature operation. This proposed bulk temperature increase from 93.5 to 95 degrees represents a 33% decrease in the bulk temperature suppression below the boiling point. A major aim of this test will be to evaluate the degree of increased maintenance at this higher temperature operation. The basis and justification, test preparation and instrumentation, procedure, costs, outage time, hazards, standards, and responsibilities are discussed in this document.

Potential limitations of Al-Si bonded fuel elements (open access)

Potential limitations of Al-Si bonded fuel elements

Tests in which aluminum-jacketed, Al-Si bonded uranium fuel elements were baked at various temperatures have shown there is a time-temperature relationship for Al-Si layer decomposition. For heat transfer and secondary coolant barrier considerations, the extent of bonding layer deterioration during fuel element irradiation is important. Under present reactor operating conditions, Al-Si bonded fuel elements show evidence of internal bond deterioration, and to a lesser degree, external bond deterioration following irradiation. Such evidence has aroused concern for the ability of the Al-Si bonding layer to withstand future reactor operating conditions. Currently, several potential uranium fabrication and canning process improvements are being developed to further advance fuel element stability and performance. Optimization of process conditions based on these improvements may provide the necessary Margin of safety for good bond layer integrity during irradiation. Before a decision can be made to continue improvement of the present process or convert to a new canning process, more information on the stability of the present fuel element bond is needed. The purpose of this report is to summarize data derived from past and present testing and to recommend courses of action to more fully evaluate Al-Si bond integrity under anticipated future reactor operating conditions.

Reactivity capacity of NPR control systems (open access)

Reactivity capacity of NPR control systems

The reactivity control capacity of the N-reactor control systems has been calculated by methods which take into account the absorption of epithermal as well as thermo neutrons. Earlier calculations were made using a method which is satisfactory in control calculations for the existing Hanford reactors but which largely neglects the epithermal absorption. The new calculations were undertaken because of recent evidence that the epithermal absorption is more important to the NPR control strength and because of some concern regarding the margin between previously calculated control strength and anticipated control requirements. The calculational methods used in the present study and the resulting calculated control capacities are reported in this document.
