Recovery of Nitric Acid in the Tributyl Phosphate Process for Uranium Recovery. Part 2. (open access)

Recovery of Nitric Acid in the Tributyl Phosphate Process for Uranium Recovery. Part 2.

Report discussing study on recovery of nitric acid in the uranium recovery process. The behavior of chloride ions and tributyl phophate is noted, and the quality of recycled nitric acid was tested. Stainless steel in the nitric acid recovery system was evaluated for corrosion.

Reactor Analysis for the Army Package Power Reactor No. 1 (open access)

Reactor Analysis for the Army Package Power Reactor No. 1

Abstract: The reactor analysis of the critical experiment and the APPR-1 resulted in a loading of the APPR-1 of 31.096 gm of B-10 with 22.5 kg U-335. This loading will result in adequate reactivity for a core life of 13 MWYR based on uniform burnup of U-335 and B-10. Calculations indicate that five of the seven control rods provided are more than adequate to shut the reactor down at any time. The temperature coefficient of reactivity should be at least -2 x 10-4 [delta] K/0F.

Final Process Design for Leak Detector System for Special Flanges (open access)

Final Process Design for Leak Detector System for Special Flanges

The leak detector system consists of one gas pressurized reservoir containing heavy water, a tubing manifold connecting the pressurizer to six separate lines each connected to one of the flanges, tubing lines leading from the second hole on each of three flange pairs (dome and heat exchanger flanges) back into the instrument room, plus required valves and fittings. A schematic diagram of the system in included.

Li⁶ and Li⁷ (n. 2n) Cross Sections at 14.1 Mev (open access)

Li⁶ and Li⁷ (n. 2n) Cross Sections at 14.1 Mev

Abstract: "An absolute measurement of the 14.1-Mev (n, 2n) cross sections of Li-6 and Li-7 has been made using the large scintillator technique, resulting in cross sections in barns of 0.070 +/- 0.006 and 0.056 +/- 0.005 for Li-6 and Li-7, respectively."
