A Tracer Study of the Transport of Chromium in Fluoride Fuel Systems (open access)

A Tracer Study of the Transport of Chromium in Fluoride Fuel Systems

The following report follows an experimental study that was made on the mass transport of chromium in polythermal inconel-fluoride fuel systems, followed by the technique of adding radioactive chromium-51 to the system as either CrF3 in the salt or as elemental chromium in the solid phase.
