A critical experiment program is carried out in a configuration similar to the BONUS reactor. The results give information concerning: the effects of different boilersuperheater geometries; the reactivity changes associated with superheater voiding or flooding; power regulation between the boiler and superheater regions; epithermal transmission probabilities for B-stainless steel and Cd control rods; the power flattening characteristics; and void simulation properties. The calculational methods used in the study predict the measured reactivity and power distribution to within the limits of experimental accuracy. (T.F.H.)

A test was conducted to determine if sufficient excess reactivity exists in the core to override a peak xenon transient, and to obtain data for rod worth calculations. After completlon of 224.7 EFPH of plant operation with Core 1, seed 2 (5053.9 EFPH total Core I operation), there was sufficient reactivity to override the peak xenon transient imposed by a rapid station shutdown from an avernge reactor power level of 105.24%. Data on rod worth and other test results are included. (J.R.D.)

Strain-fatigue tests were conducted on two reactor-grade aluminum-base alloys and a sintered aluminum product at 80 to 900 deg F. The materials are used in reactor components, and one of the aluminum alloys has a potential for use in experimental models. Results of the tests indicate that strain-fatigue behavior at room temperature for the materials was similar to that of other ductile materials. The aluminum-alloy specimens at 600 deg F yielded results of limited value owing to the instability of the specimens. At 900 deg F the sintered aluminum product exhibited a significant loss of ductility with a cyclic life 16% of that at 600 deg F. (auth)

Tests were carried out to determine if there was sufficient excess reactivity present in the core to override a pesk xenon transient and to obtain data for rod worth calculations. Upon completion of 1565.4 EFPH of plant operation of Core I, Seed 2, there was sufficient reactivity to override the peak xenon transient imposed by a rapid shutdown from an average reactor power level of 102.65%. The override occurred 8 hr and 46 min after shutdown with Group I control rods withdrawn to 69 in. and Group II control rods controlling, withdrawn to 44.75 in. Rod Group III and Group IV were fully inserted. (M.C.G.)
