Transient Behavior of a Natural-Circulation Loop Operating Near The Thermodynamic Critical Point (open access)

Transient Behavior of a Natural-Circulation Loop Operating Near The Thermodynamic Critical Point

From Introduction: "Interest in utilizing natural-circulation loops to obtain results that aid in the design of some boiler and nuclear reactor coolant systems has focused attention on the dynamic behavior of such loops. Much analytical and experimental work has been done so as to permit predictions of the transient behavior of both single-phase and two-phase neutral-circulation systems. The analytical portion of the study consisted of simulating the loop by utilizing a digital computer to predict the measured transients."

The Measurement of Oxygen to Metal Ratio in Solid Solutions of Uranium and Plutonium Dioxides (open access)

The Measurement of Oxygen to Metal Ratio in Solid Solutions of Uranium and Plutonium Dioxides

A survey was made of methods potentially useful for the determination of the oxygen to metal ratio in mixed oxides of uranium and plutonium. A gravimetric method was selected as being the most promising for adaptation in a short period of time. Development of the technique resulted in a reliable method which meets the requirements for unirradiated mixed oxide fuel samples. The method, based upon an equilibrium weight at 700 deg C in dry hydrogen, was shown to be capable of measurement of O/(Pu + U) ratios in 20% PuO/sub 2/--80% UO/sub 2/ pellets with a standard deviation of plus or minus 0.001.
