Design Study of a Pebble-Bed Reactor Power Plant

Sanderson & Porter have carried out a series of studies over the last four years which indicate that the pebble-bed reactor way be an attractive way to obtain low-cost power. At the request of the Atomic Energy Commission, two design studies have been carried out on this concept at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The first of these a preliminary design of a 10-Mw(t) reactor experiment, the PRRE, was initiated September 10, and a report on the study was issued November 1960. The second phase of the work, a conceptual design study of a 330-Mw (e) central station, was initiated November 1, and is the subject of this report.

Determination of the S. S. N. M. Content of the Shipment to the Davison Chemical Company, Erwin, Tennessee, December 20, 1960

A carrier containing 138.99 liters of solution, uranium concentration 202.04 g/liter with an isotopic concentration of 97.3% U-233, was prepared for shipment. The total uranium was 28,062 +/- 60 g (95% confidence level) and the U-233, 27,305 +/- 66 g (95% confidence level).
