Tory 11-A, the first experimental reactor in the Pluto nuclear ramjet program, will be tested in late 1960 at the Nevada Test Site of the Atomic Energy Commission. The fundamental objective of Tory II-A is to demonstrate that a high power density, high-temperature, air-cooled reactor can be successfully designed, constructed, and operated. This application places requirements on the reactor control system which are considerably more stringent than those found in previous reactor systems, both from the standpoint of radiation environment and system performance. To fulfill the system requirements a high-performance reactor control system has been designed and built; control actuation hardware has been developed which can withstand the high-radiation environment of Tory LI-A. This actuation system features radiation-tolerant electrohydraulic components: actuators, servo-valves, solenoid valves, feedback transducers, accumulators and associated hydraulic components. To provide high reliability against undesired shutdowns while carrying out high power level transients, the Tory 11-A control philosophy includes a new concept in reactor safety: reliance on a nonlocking, fast-reset safety system during accident situations. The fast-reset system acts so as to hold the programmed power level rather than initiating an irreversible "scram" action. A reactor "scram", if tolerated, could produce thermal shocks which would seriously damage the …

Sanderson & Porter have carried out a series of studies over the last four years which indicate that the pebble-bed reactor way be an attractive way to obtain low-cost power. At the request of the Atomic Energy Commission, two design studies have been carried out on this concept at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The first of these a preliminary design of a 10-Mw(t) reactor experiment, the PRRE, was initiated September 10, and a report on the study was issued November 1960. The second phase of the work, a conceptual design study of a 330-Mw (e) central station, was initiated November 1, and is the subject of this report.

Abstract: "This quarterly report, ARF 1194-10, covers the work performed in the time period December 15, 1961 to March 14, 1962, on Contract No. AT(11-1)-578. In this period, Phase II, the detailed evaluation of various fields of radioisotope research, has been extended. Preliminary results on the use of radioisotopes in the industrial applications, apparatus and techniques, and metallurgy categories are presented. These preliminary studies indicate the quantity of research, growth rates, and specialized areas of interest in various countries of the world. More detailed evaluations of these categories will be presented in the final report."

The components for the present aluminum clad, Al-Si bonded, internally and externally cooled (I & E), uranium fuel elements are composed of impact extruded cans and spire caps as shown in Figure 1. This type of component requires two impact extrusions; however, in December, 1957, J. E. Ruffin proposed another design of component in which there was only one impact extrusion. For this component, Figure 2, the spire was impact extruded as a part of the can.

A portable shield has been designed, developed, fabricated and shop tested to provide the HRT with a facility for direct dry maintenance operations. It provides temporary replacement for any one of the lower roof plugs and should permit many operations to be performed without flooding the reactor cell with water.

The effect of adding small quantities of fuel or poison to the HRT has been estimated using perturbation theory. The results have been reduced to a single relation and a set of graphs which make the estimation of added reactivity relatively simple. The perturbation theory results are compared with multigroup results and reasonable agreement is demonstrated; however, there is some question concerning the prompt neutron lifetime.

This report follows a series of tests run to determine the shielding properties of beryllium oxide, conducted at the Battelle Lid-Tank Shielding Facility. Neutron and gamma penetrations through and behind beryllium oxide were measured.

This report discusses the selected references of student unrest on the campus. It is categorized into two categories: (I) General and (II) Supplementary.

Over the last decade, several computational methods have been developed and used to examine reactor flow transients caused by pump outage. The variations in system character which have been analyzed are sufficiently diverse that it appears worthwhile to compile them into a single report.

The large scale application of Zircaloy-2 pressure tubes for structural use either in or out of reactor service, is without precedent. For more common materials, there normally are adequate data and long operating histories on which to base design and service limits. In the absence of such information for Zr-2, several investigative programs have been devised to provide much of the information from which design and service limits may be defined for Zr-2 pressure tubes. These investigations encompass in-and-out-of-reactor creep and stress-rupture testing, pre-and-post irradiation testing, and bust strength, as well as the effect of flaws or defects (from both fabrication and service origins) on burst strength and fracture characteristics. Already creep and stress rupture testing of unirradiated Zircaloy-2 is well advanced, and some experimental pre-irradiation burst testing has been carried out and will be extended rapidly as improved equipment becomes available. One irradiated KER tube sample has been burst tested and the requirement for post irradiation burst testing equipment have been defined.

A carrier containing 138.99 liters of solution, uranium concentration 202.04 g/liter with an isotopic concentration of 97.3% U-233, was prepared for shipment. The total uranium was 28,062 +/- 60 g (95% confidence level) and the U-233, 27,305 +/- 66 g (95% confidence level).
