Compact Control Rod Drive Study For a Boiling Water Reactor in a T7 Tanker (open access)

Compact Control Rod Drive Study For a Boiling Water Reactor in a T7 Tanker

The reason for initiating the compact drive study for the T7 tanker was to investigate control rod drive size, location, and removal space requirement factors and select the control rod drive mechanism which would allow optimization of the over-all size of the containment vessel. Approximately twelve mechanical/hydraulic control rod drive arrangements were considered during this study.

Pressure Vessel Steel Surveillance Program for General Electric Power Reactors (open access)

Pressure Vessel Steel Surveillance Program for General Electric Power Reactors

Abstract: "Pressure vessel steel surveillance programs are performed in nuclear power reactors to provide knowledge of the mechanical properties of the pressure vessel material as neutron irradiation proceeds. A standard surveillance program is described. Design of specimens, capsules, and associated equipment, as well as selection of test material and techniques for special preparation and testing, are discussed."
