Hydraulic Instability In a Natural Circulation Loop With Wet Steam Generation at 1000 PSIA
Experimental test loops have been used to study the problem of hydraulic stability. The oscillatory behavior of a single-phase and two-phase natural circulation loop has been examined at atmospheric pressures and oscillating modes of operation were studied in terms of heat input.

Post-Irradiation Examination of Cored, Edge Loaded, Thoria-Urania Nuclear Fuel
Three edge loaded thoria-urania nuclear fuel samples were assembled into a capsule, irradiated and examined. This irradiation was the first of a series to develop thoria-urania fuel for high heat flux, specific power and burn-up operation in a sodium graphite reactor.

High Performance UO2 Program First Quarterly Progress Report: April-June 1961
A better understanding of the maximum operating characteristics that can be achieved with the use of UO2 as a reactor fuel is the primary purpose of this program for Euratom and the Atomic Energy Commission. During this program work will be undertaken in two areas that have been of concern to the reactor core designer for a long time, viz. fission gas release and central melting in fuel rods.
