B, D, F, DR, H reactor new aluminum HCR concept: Temperature study (open access)

B, D, F, DR, H reactor new aluminum HCR concept: Temperature study

The horizontal control rods presently installed in the older Hanford Reactors have inadequate heat transfer characteristics for present and predicted future operation of the reactors. Continued graphite stack distortion, coupled with higher graphite temperatures, has resulted in ECR failure during reactor operation, such as swelling of the outer aluminum sheaths to the extent that rod movement in the graphite channel is severely restricted. Continued graphite stack distortion will tend to further aggravate the problem of rod operation. A new HCR design concept,was developed by P. H. Hutton of Reactor Design, IPD, to alleviate some of the pressing operational problems. Prior to the acceptance of such a design, the important rod operating parameters should be known to some degree of accuracy. This study was conducted to detexmine, by calculational methods, the temperature distributions that could be expected to occur in such an HCR when used at the present operating power levels and at 120% of the present power levels.

An evaluation of simple iron-water radiation shields and radiation measurements within concrete-lined and -capped pits (open access)

An evaluation of simple iron-water radiation shields and radiation measurements within concrete-lined and -capped pits

Program 3 of Operation BREN consisted in a study of the performance of biological shields composed of various arrangements of steel, water, and borated polyethylene in spherical, cubical, and parallelepipedal geometries. Studies were also made of the radiation levels within concrete-lined and -capped pits, 4 ft in dia and 8 ft deep. The principal radiation source was the ORNL Health Physics Research Reactor, an unshielded, unreflected, 90 wt % U-10 wt % Mo, cylindrical bare-metal assembly. It was supported at heights ranging from 27 to 1500 ft by a hoist car riding outside of a 1527-ft-high steel tower. A 1200-curie Co/sup 60/ gamma-ray source, similarly supported, was substituted for the reactor for some measurements. The work reported includes measurements of fast-neutron and gamma-ray dose rates and thermal-neutron fluxes in air and within the various shields, using the reactor source, measurements of gamma-ray dose rates in air from the Co/sup 60/ gamma-ray source, and measurements of gamma-ray pulse-height spectra within the pits, also employing the Co/sup 60/ source. 8 refs., 33 figs., 29 tabs.
