Burst testing of irradiated Zircaloy tubing. Revision 1 (open access)

Burst testing of irradiated Zircaloy tubing. Revision 1

An extensive knowledge of the effect on the mechanical properties of metals of prolonged exposure to neutron radiation is considered necessary to properly establish design and operating criteria for in-reactor pressure tubes and test loops. An opportunity to obtain a limited amount of this information on Zircaloy-2 presented itself when, after two years of service, the pressure tubes were replaced in the RE reactor recirculating test facility. Three Zircaloy-2 tubes, with a two-inch inside diameter and 48 feet long, had operated intermittently with prototypical fuel elements at water temperatures up to 250 C (480 F) and pressures up to 1350 psi. During this period, the tubes received an estimated integrated neutron exposure of 1.9 {times} 10{sup 22} nvt. After the tubes were removed from the reactor, metallographic examinations, longitudinal-tensile tests, flattening tests, and burst tests were performed. In this report, the techniques for performing the burst tests are described and the results of the burst tests are compared with the results from tensile tests on coupons cut from corresponding locations along the tube.

Chemical Disposal to the Columbia River by 100-N Area (open access)

Chemical Disposal to the Columbia River by 100-N Area

As a result of an AEC directive, a review has been made of the disposal of chemicals to the Columbia River by 100-N to determine if any water pollution hazards exist. The search revealed that no chemicals are released continuously in hazardous concentrations; that three cases exist where hazardous concentrations might be released intermittently under worst-case conditions; that two cases exist where intermittent releases result in questionable conditions; and that two cases exist where accidental release from storage might result in hazardous conditions. Recommendations for corrective action are given in all cases.

Close-in Air Blast from a Row Charge in Basalt

From abstract: Close-in air blast measurements were made on the Dugout shot. Major constituents of the blast wave were the ground-shock-induced pulse and the pulse from venting gases. The ground-shock-induced pulse was the dominant one at all stations.

The consequences of accidental releases during rail shipments of radioactive strontium (open access)

The consequences of accidental releases during rail shipments of radioactive strontium

Large quantities of radiostrontium inn the form of strontium carbonate have been shipped from HAPO in the HAPO-II shipping systems. Modifications have recently been completed to equip the two HAPO-I systems for shipments of strontium. This report updates previous hazards evaluations such shipments, to account for the greater strontium inventory of the HAPO-I system.

Cosmogenic Carbon-14 and Chlorine-36 in Meteorites (open access)

Cosmogenic Carbon-14 and Chlorine-36 in Meteorites

In 1947 Bauer, and later independently Huntley (1948), pointed out that the helium content of iron meteorites as measured by Paneth and coworkers could be accounted for by the accumulation through cosmic-ray production rather then the decay of uranium and thorium. Bauer (1947) also predicted that the meteroitic helium should contain a significant proportion of He3. I was realized that by studying the effects of cosmic radiation on meteorites much could be learned about the history of meteorite and cosmic radiation. Chemical and instrumental techniques have been developed for the isolation, purification, and measurement of cosmic-ray-induced C14 in both stone and iron meteorites. The isolation of carbon from the silicate materials is done by fusion in an oxidizing flux in a vacuum system. From the iron meteorites the carbon is recovered by the decomposition of the metal in nitric acid in a closed system.

Creep and Drying Shrinkage of Lightweight and Normal-Weight Concretes

From Scope of Investigation: "The work reported here is part of a continuing program concerning the long-term volume changes in concretes made from lightweight and normal-weight aggregates. The creep, drying-shrinkage, and strength data presented are for concretes made with 24 expanded shale lightweight aggregates and 5 natural, normal-weight aggregates. These aggregates were from widely separated geographical locations and were to be representative samples of aggregates being used in the production of structural concretes."

Description of the Ibm-704 Code for the Calculation of Concentration Transients in the HRT

The calculation of concentration transients caused by mixing in the interconnected three-body system of the fuel dump tanks, core and blanket has been coded for the IBM-704. The system of equations includes material balances, the dependence of critical temperature on core and blanket concentrations, and the effect of temperature (density) changes on flow rates. The controllable flow rates, the fuel dump tank weight and the initial conditions are input variables. Outputs include core and blanket concentrations, critical temperature, concentration ratio and power ratio. The code has been used to compute transients during a number of operating situations.
