Sizes of U. S. Steam-Electric Plants
At the present time, plants in the 100 to 500 Mw size range are more numerous and carry the greatest portion (over 50%) of the total steam-electric plant load in the US utillties industry. The contribution of plants of over 1,000-Mw capacity is increasing more rapidly than any other size classification and at present represents about 10% of the total capacity. By 1962 the TVA will have six plants with capacities of over 1,000-Mw. The largest steam-electric plant in the US is the TVA plant at Kingston, Tenn., with a nameplate capacity of 1,440Mw. Turbine-generator wits are also following a trend of ever-increasing size. In present construction, the 150 to 200 Mw size range for units ls the most common and represents the greatest contribution to capacity. Two units of 500-Mw nameplate rating each, the largest in the US, are on order by the TVA, and an 80 Mw unit is contemplated. (auth)

X-RAY DIFFRACTION ANALYSIS OF BORON IN BORON CARBIDE
By applying the relationships between lattice parameters and composition in the solid solution range, a method was presented to analyze boron in boron carbide. The purpose was to establish a means of determining the boron composition in a boron carbide solid solution in the presence of excess carbon or boron. The different unit-cell dimensions sometimes reported for a given solid mixture are usually attributed to the existence of solid solutions. If the crystal lattice parameters vary linearly with composition, a curve can be constructed to determine composition from lattice parameter measurements. Toward this end four samples of boron carbide of known nominal composition were selected. For each sample precision lattice parameter measurements and chemical analyses of boron and carbon content were obtained to establish relationship between lattice parameters and boron composition.

Coincident pressure and stress data obtained from PT-278-A and PT-301-I
This document presents experimental data obtained during a series of tests which were completed at 105-D and DR Reactors in February and March, 1960. No analysis of the data is included in this document. The tests were: PT-301-I, II -- Reactor cold, full flow, BPA power failure; PT-278-A, III B -- 1170 MW, full flow, BPA power failure; and PT-278-A, II -- 1190 MW, full flow, poison push causing bulk surge and scram.

EXAMINATION OF CORROSION SPECIMENS FROM SLURRY BLANKET MOCKUP RUNS SM-6 THROUGH SM-9
Low attack rates (0.1 to 0.5 mpy) were displayed by coupon specimens of type 347 stainless steel, titanium RC-55, and Zircaloy-2 which were exposed for 2877.5 hr in an oxygenated slurry of Th--8% U oxide, 116.5 hr in water, 6.9 hr in 5% HNO/sub 3/, and 4.3 hr in 3% triscdium phosphate during mns SM-6 through SM-9 in the slurry blanket mockup. The leading coupon of type 347 stainless steel showed a slightly higher rate than the other stainless steel ccupons due to entrance effects. Specimens of SA-212-B carbon steel displayed average attack rates of 2.9 mpy. (auth)

Experiments With Pulsed Magnetic Cusps
Experiments with a simple pulsed magnetic field in cusped geometry are described. The plasma is generated inside the containment region rather than injected from an external source. It was found that creation of the plasma by a linear pinch discharge is most successful. Only qualitative studies have been carried out so far, using time-resolved visual observation of the plasma. Well-defined plasma bodies located in the central region between the cells were photographed. In order to make them clearly visible, a few percent of argon was added to the hydrogen.

NPR delayed neutron fractions and decay constants
This report discusses the delayed neutron characteristics of a reactor which are a function of the distribution of fissions in the various fissionable isotopes. The delayed neutron characteristics of the NPRL delayed fraction and decay constants, are presented as functions of exposure to 2000 MWD/T for both room temperature and operating temperature. It is of importance to note that the delayed neutron fraction decreases from 0.693% to 0.539% with increased exposure. Thus 22% less reactivity change represents a prompt critical condition at 2000 MWD/T, compared to the zero exposure condition.

TASK XII ANALYTICAL REPORT--SM-1 TRANSIENT ANALYSIS BY ANALOG COMPUTER METHODS
The voltage and frequency response of selected SM-1 plant system parameters to step load changes was analyzed using analog computer measurements. The analog model was that developed for analysis of the SM-2 design. The approach to the analysis, formulation of the model, and analog recordings are presented. The data will be used to prove reliability of the analog model by comparing analog data with test data to be taken at SM-1. (auth)

Burnout program for high heat flux assemblies
The power of high flux fuel assemblies and three-tube drivers planned for future operations is limited by the burnout safety factor (BOSF). In the past, the power of standard production fuel assemblies was limited almost always by one of the hydraulic limits, and in most cases the assemblies operated at powers significantly below that permitted by the BOSF limit. The burnout conditions for an ``ideal`` fuel surface have been well established in mockups at SRL and Columbia University. Little experimental data are available on nonidealities (such as local hot spots), although calculated factors are applied to the BOSF to account for certain nonidealities. Because of operation at the BOSF limit, better knowledge is needed of the effects of nonidealities and other factors on heat transfer burnout of fuel surfaces. This memorandum presents a program designed to give a better understanding of BOSF.
