The A.A.E.C. Atmospheric Pressure Heat Transfer Rigs (open access)

The A.A.E.C. Atmospheric Pressure Heat Transfer Rigs

This technical report describes two atmospheric pressure rigs with associated equipment designed for investigating heat transfer and friction characteristics of different type of "roughened" surfaces to develop suitable surfaces for an H.T.G.C.R. fuel element. Operating details are given together with techniques used to measure heat transfer and friction on a surface assembly incorporating selected "roughened" surfaces. Methods for calculating Stanton numbers, friction factors, and Reynolds numbers for such an assembly are included.

An Analogue Solution of a Reactor Perturbation Initiated by a Metallurgical Phase Transformation of the Fuel (open access)

An Analogue Solution of a Reactor Perturbation Initiated by a Metallurgical Phase Transformation of the Fuel

The analysis of a reactor model that is thermally nonlinear is presented. The significant sources of feadback in the closed-loop model ane dilatational changes of the fuel due to axial expansion caused by temperature and metallurgical phase changes. Ths dynamics of this phenomenon has been represented on the Pace electronic analog com puter. The model was subjected to unusually large inputs of sinusoidal power and did not show any drastic tendencies toward being unstable. (auth)

Annual Report 1961 (open access)

Annual Report 1961

This seventh Annual Report is a summary of some of the progress in scientific and engineering research and development carried on at Argonne National Laboratory during 1961. As is customary in this series, only those portions of the total program that have reached such a stage that they may be of general interest are recorded. Thus, a comparison with the Annual Reports for 1959 (ANL-6125) and for 1960 (ANL-6275) will reveal the description of a generally different set of scientific activities. A more detailed presentation of any work covered in this report or of the many ANL projects not mentioned may be obtained by perusing the various progress and topical reports issued by the Laboratory during 1961. A list of the publications in the scientific journals during 1961 by Argonne personnel has been given as an Appendix.

The Application of Inert Fluidized Beds to the Volatility Reprocessing of Reactor Fuels (open access)

The Application of Inert Fluidized Beds to the Volatility Reprocessing of Reactor Fuels

In the reprocessing of spent solid fuels from nuclear reactors by direct volatilization, one of the major problems is the removal of heat from the highly exothermic gas-solid reactions. The use of fluidized beds of inert granular material as heat transfer media to control these exothermic reactions forms the basis of one approach to volatile reprocessing which is under development at BNL The engineering scale work carried out under this development program is discussed.

ARGONAUT REACTOR DATA-BOOK. A compilation of experimental and theoretical results of work done with, or related to, the Argonaut Reactor to July 1960

This compilation was prepared to provide a comprehensive unified summary of the principal elements of the design, operation and nuclear characteristics of the Argonaut Reactor. Its primary content is made up of the theoretical and experimental evaluations of basic reactor parameters, both static and kinetic, which have been made to this date. The Databook includes also some practical information on the reaativity worths of fuel, moderator, and absorbers, as well as some data on radiation in the reactor vicinity. A list of Argonaut type reactors in all countries and a bibliography of Argonaut work are included. (auth)

Broad Range Spectrograph for Use With the Rochester 27" Cyclotron (open access)

Broad Range Spectrograph for Use With the Rochester 27" Cyclotron

"A broad range nuclear spectrograph of the Buechner-Bainbridge type, which characteristic radius R-50 cm. has been constructed and installed for use in conjunction with the Rochester 27" variable energy cyclotron. For a given magnetic field, particles are focused over an energy range 0.63o‹E‹1.3Eo, where Eo is the energy of particles focused with orbit radius Q-R-50 cm. The resolution of the spectrograph ∆E/E is less than 0.2%. Particles may be recorded either in nuclear emulsions or in an array of solid state counters. Results of calibration measurements and typical nuclear data taken with the spectrograph are presented."

The Calculation of Nonlinear Radiation Transport by a Monte Carlo Method (open access)

The Calculation of Nonlinear Radiation Transport by a Monte Carlo Method

A monte Carlo method of solving the one-dimensional equations of nonlinear radiation transport is compared with the Sn "characteristics" method of solution. It is concluded that the Monte Carlo method is accurate and stable and furthermore for a given time-cycle length and space-zone size the Monte Carlo method is more accurate than the Sn method.

CHARACTERISTICS OF RADIOACTIVITY PRODUCED BY NUCLEAR EXPLOSIVES (open access)

CHARACTERISTICS OF RADIOACTIVITY PRODUCED BY NUCLEAR EXPLOSIVES

The amounts and kinds of radioactivities produced by detonation of a nuclear explosive are dependent upon the specific design of the explosive. The two design extremes are a pure fission device, which will produce about 1.4 x 10/ sup 23/ fissions, and therefore about 2.8 x 10/sup 23/ fission products, per kiloton of energy released, and a pure thermonuclear device which would produce no fission products, but would produce approximately 10/sup 23/ atoms of tritium per kiloton. In both cases, interaction of escaping neutrons with the materials of the device itself, and with the surrounding media, could lead to further radioactivities. The behavior and ultimate fate of the activities produced by the explosion depend on the composition of the medium in which the detonation occurs, the nature of the detonation, and the chemical species involved. Some typical cases are described. (auth)
