PILOT PLANT SHUTDOWN AND Pu-Al PROCESSING (open access)

PILOT PLANT SHUTDOWN AND Pu-Al PROCESSING

The large aqueous pilot plant facilities at ORNL were cleaned and are being put in standby condition. Experience was gained during the year as anion exchange was used to recover more than one kg of plutonium left in the exploded evaporator system. This experience is being applied to a new recovery program just beginning in cell 1 of Building 4507. (auth)

EXPERIMENTAL MEASUREMENTS OF THE SUCTION HEAD REQUIRED BY THE HALLAM PROTOTYPE FREE SURFACE SODIUM PUMP (open access)

EXPERIMENTAL MEASUREMENTS OF THE SUCTION HEAD REQUIRED BY THE HALLAM PROTOTYPE FREE SURFACE SODIUM PUMP

Hydraulic tests were made on the Hallam Prototype Free-Surface Sodium Pump to determine the net positive suction head (NPSH) required at various sodium flow rates. Pump performance data were also collected. The results indicate that an NPSH of 22 ft sodium is required at the design flow rate of 7200 gpm at approximates 1000 deg F, agreeing with computed values, and that the pump is designed with a safety margin of slightly over l0%.

GRAPHITE-STAINLESS STEEL COMPATIBILITY STUDIES (open access)

GRAPHITE-STAINLESS STEEL COMPATIBILITY STUDIES

S>The compatibility of type 304L stainless steel in intimate contact with graphite is being studied as a function of temperature and contact pressure. This study is an outgrowth of materials compatibility problems in present and advanced gas-cooled reactors, where structural members in direct contact with graphite provide the possibility of both carburization and self-welding. Initial studies were concerned with surface reactions in the absence of gaseous contaminants under a vacuum of 10/sup -6/ mm Hg at 540 to 705 deg C. Stainless steel specimens are pretreated to provide three surface conditions: H/sub 2/- fired, preoxidized, and Cu-plated. Surface contact pressures ranged from 0 to 10,000 psi. Test results are presented which establish the lower temperature limit for significant diffusion between graphite and stainless steel at approximately 60O deg C. Above this temperature, diffusion between untreated or H2-fired stainless steel surfaces was found to effect complete bonding of the two materials at contact pressures as low as 500 psi. Bonding was effectively prevented by the presence of either an oxide film or a Cu plate at temperatures up to 700 deg C. Where bonding occurred, diffusion rates measured for C in stainless steel were comparable with those reported for stainless steel …

Summary of HRT Run 25 (open access)

Summary of HRT Run 25

Run 25 was the final period of power operational of the HRT. The reactor was operated for periods of 62, 8, 52, and 80 hours at 5 Mw with no outward indication of fuel and core and blanket average temperatures of 270 and 230 deg C, respectively. The uranium concentration in the was 1.7 to 2.0 g U/kg D/sub 2/O. Longer periods of operation were prevented by mechanical difficulties, notably with the fuel feed pump. While the reactor was subcritical after the last of the above runs, the upper patch in the core tank wall became dislodged, allowing greater core-to-blanket mixing. The resultant blanket uranium concentration was 2.9 g U/kg D/sub 2/O. The reactor was subsequently operated at April 28, 1961. The experiment was operated at high temperature for a total of 10,866 hours. The system was critical for a total of 8,841 hours and produced 16,295 Mwhours of power. The fuel, heavy water, and some corrosion specimens were recovered, and the reactor was stored in an assembled state. (auth)

Development of a Fluidized Bed Calcination Process for Aluminum Nitrate Wastes in a Two-Foot-Square Plant Calciner. Part 2. Factors Affecting the Intra-Particle Porosity of Alumina (open access)

Development of a Fluidized Bed Calcination Process for Aluminum Nitrate Wastes in a Two-Foot-Square Plant Calciner. Part 2. Factors Affecting the Intra-Particle Porosity of Alumina

A seven- to twenty-fold volume reduction can be obtained from fluidized bed calcination of aqueous aluminum nitrate wastes, depending on the operating conditions employed and their effect on the intra-panticle porosity and absolute density of the calcined alumina. Among the calcining variables, only the bed temperature and the fuel aluminum concentration had a significant effect on the intra-particle porosity of alumina generated during studies conducted primarily in a two-foot-square fluidized bed calciner. A quantitative correlation of the effect of these variables is presented. Alumina with an intra-particle porosity as low as five per cent can be generated by employing a suitable combination of low bed temperature and dilute aluminum feed concentration. Feed sodium concentration and product alpha alumina content were found to have minor effect on intra-particle porosity. Results also show that an inverse relationship exists between the nitrate content of the calcine and the calcination temperature. (auth)
