Loop L-2-19 operated in HB-2 of the WTR for 1148.9 hours of circulation and 2705 Mwhr of LITR operation. The solution contained 0.17 m enriched UO/sub 2/ SO/sub 4/, 0.02 m CuSO/sub 4/, 0.12 m excess H/sub 2/SO/sub 4/, and 0.20 m Li/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ in H /.sub 2/O, The main stream was 280 deg C and the pressurizer 295 deg C. There was no unusual difficulty during loop operation. A revised loop sample procedure gave better flushing of the sample lines. Four valves failed due to severe corrosion and fracturing of the 420 SS stems. 1-131 was not detected in a sample of gas taken from the gas hold-up tank. The run was terminated when the circulating pump failed. (auth)

Material balance in atmospheric-pressure water and steam corrosion of uranium have been studied by examination of the phase composition and valence state of the corrosion product and by hydrogen-evolution measurements. The corrosion rates in atmospheric-pressure steam above 100 deg C are lower than those obtained in tests carried out in water with a hydrogen overpressure. The atmospheric-pressure-water corrosion product was found to be two phase: an oxygen- rich oxide, UO/sub 2.2/, and uncorroded metal particles. No hydride phase was detected, in contrast to previously reported evidence for hydride in uranium corrosion. The differences are explained on the basis of hydrogen pressure in the reaction vessel.

Abstract: "The dependence on mean electron kinetic energy of the ratio of intensities of [lambda]5015[HeI] and [lambda]4686[HeII] has been calculated. A low-density plasma is considered, the principal assumptions being that the reaction processes are governed by electron collisions and the electron energy distribution is Maxwellian. The results show a fairly large variation of the intensity ratio within the range of 3 to 7 ev."
