The Ninth and Tenth Annealing of the Graphite Moderator Structure in the BNL Reactor (open access)

The Ninth and Tenth Annealing of the Graphite Moderator Structure in the BNL Reactor

The cooling of the graphite was started by increasing the fan load and reducing reactor power. This change was accompanied by a temporary increase in exit air temperature, stack activity and some graphite temperatures. Although unexpected at the time, each change can be explained in terms of the change in air flow rate. There were no other unusual conditions noted during the operation. Temperature traverses through the graphite structure in various channels and at various times during the anneal operation are illustrated in the accompanying charts.
