Static Tests of Corrosion Inhibitors for Aluminum and Carbon Steel (open access)

Static Tests of Corrosion Inhibitors for Aluminum and Carbon Steel

The experiments described in this report were performed for two purposes: (1) to find a chemical, or combination of chemicals, that would be effective for inhibiting corrosion of steel in static portions of the Hanford water systems, and (2) as screening tests to select candidate mixtures for further testing to replace sodium dichromate as the inhibitor of aluminum and steel corrosion in the Hanford single-pass reactor cooling water.

Summary Report of Physics Measurements on SM-1 Core I (open access)

Summary Report of Physics Measurements on SM-1 Core I

Abstract: This technical report summarizes all core physics experiments performed on SM-1 Core I and SM-2 Rearranged and Spiked Core I throughout core life. These measurements were obtained on site during the 16.4 MWYR lifetime of SM-1 Core I and 1.6 MWYR lifetime of SM-1 Rearranged and Spiked Core I. SM-1 Core I was the first stainless steel - UO2 dispersion core to burn out in the Army Nuclear Power Program. Experimental techniques are described and a complete history of fuel movements in the core presented. Measurements include control rod bank positions during all core conditions, temperature and pressure coefficients, control rod calibrations, transient poison effects, source multiplication, and stuck rod positions. The effect of core rearrangement and spiking on core reactivity and core life is also reported. Applicable measurements from the SM-1 zero power experiments are included.
