RADIOISOTOPE AND RADIATION APPLICATIONS QUARTERLY PROGRESS REPORT. SECTION I. USE OF INTRINSIC RADIOACTIVE TRACERS FOR PROCESS CONTROL. SECTION II. RADIATION-INDUCED GRAFT-POLYMERIZATION STUDIES

Research was continued in the areas of intrinsic radioactive tracers for industrial process control and the influence of structural factors in radiation- induced graft polymerization. The use of in-process isotope neutron soarces to produce short-lived radiotraces is discussed. A 10c Po--Be neutron source was obtained for exploratory experiments. The design and construction of a neutronsource storage shield and an activatioa-cell holder are underway. The effect of structural factors oii the eIficiency of free-radical site formation in acrylate and methacrylate polymers was emphasized. Site measurements versus dose were made for poly-n-hexylmethacrylate. Two additional methods for measuring free-radical conceiitrations, a chemical method employing diphenylpicrylhydrazyl and hydroquinone and a method based on molecular-weight decreases, were developed. The grafting studies were continued. (M.C.G.)

THE EFFECTS OF INTERNAL HEAT GENERATION ON POT CALCINATION RATES FOR RADIOACTIVE WASTES (open access)

THE EFFECTS OF INTERNAL HEAT GENERATION ON POT CALCINATION RATES FOR RADIOACTIVE WASTES

Methods by which the radial deposition mechanism was determined in experiments with simulated waste solutions are reviewed. Based on this mechanism, an expression for the rate of solid deposition with internal heat generation was developed by a combined heat and material balance. A sample calculation for Purex waste showed that a moderate heat generation rate of 5000 Btu/hr/ft/sup 3/ would decrease the time to fill a 12-in.-dia calcination vessel from 78 to 55 hr. For the calcination stage of the process in which the deposited solids are heated in the absence of a liquid phase, a solution was developed for the equation of heat transfer with the temperature profile from the solid deposition stage as an initial condition. For the example Purex waste with a heat generation rate of 5000 Btu/hr ft/sup 3/, less than 15 min would be required for calcination, compared to about 8 hr in experiments with simulated wastes.

Calculation of Doppler Coefficient and Other Safety Parameters for a Large Fast Oxide Reactor (open access)

Calculation of Doppler Coefficient and Other Safety Parameters for a Large Fast Oxide Reactor

Several safety parameters are calculated for a large, fast, Na-cooled, oxide-fueled reactor. The Doppler coefficient is studied as regards its effect on the reactivity during a power excursion, and its dependence on the neutron spectrum, on the concentrations of U/sup 238/, Pu /sup 239/ , a nd Pu/sup 240/, on spatial temperature and power distributions, and on temperature. Other parameters studied include the Na temperature coefficient of reactivity, and the reactivity insertion caused by total Na loss; reactivity coefficients caused by thermal expansion of fuel and steel cladding; the excess operating reactivity; and the reactivity caused by a fuel slump. The effects of a Be reflector on neutron lifetimes are determined. The safety aspects are balanced against economic considerations. (T.F.H.)
