Interactive leach tests of UO/sub 2/ and spent fuel with waste package components in salt brine (open access)

Interactive leach tests of UO/sub 2/ and spent fuel with waste package components in salt brine

Spent fuel is being considered as a waste form for disposal in a repository located in salt. To adequately model spent fuel performance as a waste form that may be contacted by brine in a repository, it is necessary to describe the leach (dissolution) behavior of spent fuel and the chemical interactions of the released radionuclides with their environment. To this end, leach tests were conducted on: UO/sub 2/ in Permian Basin salt brine or deionized water at test temperatures of 25, 75, and 150/sup 0/C. Some tests were done in the presence of ductile cast iron, which is a representative overpack material, and/or oxidized Zircaloy, which is the usual fuel cladding material. Spent fuel (H.B. Robinson) in Permian Basin salt brine at 25 and 75/sup 0/C. Some of the tests were conducted in the presence of ductile cast iron. The release values for leach periods up to 60 days were determined for systems utilizing both UO/sub 2/ and spent fuel. This report is based upon data obtained during 1982 and 1983. The larger temperature dependence of the leach behavior that was observed for deionized water than was observed for brine is difficult to interpret on the basis of our …

New central drift chamber for the MARK II at SLC (open access)

New central drift chamber for the MARK II at SLC

A new central drift chamber has been constructed for the Mark II detector for use at the new SLAC Linear Collider (SLC). The design of the chamber is based on a multi-sense-wire cell of the jet chamber type. In addition to drift-time measurements, pulse-height measurements from the sense wires provide electron-hadron separation by dE/dx. The chamber has been tested in operation at PEP before its move to the SLC. The design and construction are described, and measurements from the new chamber are presented.

Delaying sawtooth oscillations in the Compact Ignition Tokamak (open access)

Delaying sawtooth oscillations in the Compact Ignition Tokamak

A combination of pellets, off-axis heating, and current ramp is used to delay the onset of sawtooth oscillations for 3.4 seconds and achieve ignition with less than 0.2-second confinement time in a 1-1/2-D BALDUR simulation of the Compact Ignition Tokamak. Deuterium and tritium pellets are injected into an initially cold, relatively low density plasma, where they cool the center and produce a very centrally peaked density profile. A centrally peaked density profile (n/sub e0//<n/sub e/> = 4.0) is subsequently maintained by an inward particle pinch. Twenty megawatts of auxiliary heating is applied halfway between the magnetic axis and the edge of the plasma for 2 seconds after the pellets are injected. The plasma ignites and then burns from the time the auxiliary heating is turned off until the first large sawtooth crash occurs at 3.4 seconds. The burn would be expected to continue after that only if the sawtooth period is sufficiently long (roughly 0.3 seconds or longer).

Development of materials for open-cycle magnetohydrodynamics (MHD): ceramic electrode. Final report (open access)

Development of materials for open-cycle magnetohydrodynamics (MHD): ceramic electrode. Final report

Pacific Northwest Laboratory, supported by the US Department of Energy, developed advanced materials for use in open-cycle, closed cycle magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) power generation, an advanced energy conversion system in which the flow of electrically conducting fluid interacts with an electric field to convert the energy directly into electricity. The purpose of the PNL work was to develop electrodes for the MHD channel. Such electrodes must have: (1) electrical conductivity above 0.01 (ohm-cm)/sup -1/ from near room temperature to 1900/sup 0/K, (2) resistance to both electrochemical and chemical corrosion by both slag and potassium seed, (3) resistance to erosion by high-velocity gases and particles, (4) resistance to thermal shock, (5) adequate thermal conductivity, (6) compatibility with other channel components, particularly the electrical insulators, (7) oxidation-reduction stability, and (8) adequate thermionic emission. This report describes the concept and development of high-temperature, graded ceramic composite electrode materials and their electrical and structural properties. 47 refs., 16 figs., 13 tabs.

Variational methods for field theories (open access)

Variational methods for field theories

Four field theory models are studied: Periodic Quantum Electrodynamics (PQED) in (2 + 1) dimensions, free scalar field theory in (1 + 1) dimensions, the Quantum XY model in (1 + 1) dimensions, and the (1 + 1) dimensional Ising model in a transverse magnetic field. The last three parts deal exclusively with variational methods; the PQED part involves mainly the path-integral approach. The PQED calculation results in a better understanding of the connection between electric confinement through monopole screening, and confinement through tunneling between degenerate vacua. This includes a better quantitative agreement for the string tensions in the two approaches. Free field theory is used as a laboratory for a new variational blocking-truncation approximation, in which the high-frequency modes in a block are truncated to wave functions that depend on the slower background modes (Boron-Oppenheimer approximation). This ''adiabatic truncation'' method gives very accurate results for ground-state energy density and correlation functions. Various adiabatic schemes, with one variable kept per site and then two variables per site, are used. For the XY model, several trial wave functions for the ground state are explored, with an emphasis on the periodic Gaussian. A connection is established with the vortex Coulomb gas of …

Electrical equipment performance under severe accident conditions (BWR/Mark 1 plant analysis): Summary report (open access)

Electrical equipment performance under severe accident conditions (BWR/Mark 1 plant analysis): Summary report

The purpose of the Performance Evaluation of Electrical Equipment during Severe Accident States Program is to determine the performance of electrical equipment, important to safety, under severe accident conditions. In FY85, a method was devised to identify important electrical equipment and the severe accident environments in which the equipment was likely to fail. This method was used to evaluate the equipment and severe accident environments for Browns Ferry Unit 1, a BWR/Mark I. Following this work, a test plan was written in FY86 to experimentally determine the performance of one selected component to two severe accident environments.

EMC effect (open access)

EMC effect

A review is presented of data and theoretical interpretations of the nuclear dependence of quark and antiquark distributions as observed in the deep inelastic scattering of neutrinos and charged leptons from nuclei. After a summary of the experimental situation and a survey of proposed explanations, the author concentrates on interpretations in terms of conventional nuclear physics and on the Q/sup 2/-rescaling approach. The review concludes with a list of desirable future experiments. 32 refs., 5 figs.
