The discussion and summary report presented here illustrate the type of information that is currently in data processing machine language and available to those who require it. During the progress meetings at which these reports were discussed, several persons indicated a desire to have a documented explanation of the report and a personal copy to scan. This is the answer to these requests. The reports are comprised of three major sections. The first is a map indicating the number of recordings of data in the category defined by the function number code. The second is a summary of the data, in terms of hours, for each of the functions performed during an outage, except secondary function code number 21 which is the number of tubes associated with the basic function performed. The third is a summary of the secondary functions performed within a basic function class, the associated delay total, and the number of tubes involved for those functions where a delineation by tube count may be of interest.

The objectives of this Process Improvement Transition Authorization (PITA) for KE and KW reactors are to authorize a flat 700 C graphite temperature limit in the bulk of the graphite, with a conditional 850 C limit in the 0.130 coring zone only, and in conjunction therewith to provide for routine use of nitrogen instead of carbon dioxide in the reactor atmosphere. These temperatures as quoted apply to filler blocks in the vicinity of normal channels, and are maximum limits.

The following discussion and attached summary report is sent to you to illustrate the type of information that is currently in data processing machine language and available to those who require it. The reports are comprised of three major sections. The first is a map indicating the number of recordings of data in the category defined by the function number code. The second is a summary of the data, in terms of hours, for each of the functions performed during an outage, except secondary function code number 21 which is the number of tubes associated with the basic function performed. The third is a summary of the secondary functions performed within a basic function class, the associated delay total, and the number of tubes involved for those functions where a delineation by tube count may be of interest. The function code numbers relate directly to the definitions of the hours expended for charge-discharge, rupture removal, tube leak repair, tube replacement, and so forth. These definitive classes are taken from the distribution records supplied by the various reactor analysts and summarized by the Reports and Statistics group in the IPD Production Operation.

This report is a summary of the way information is stored on the maintenance histories of the Hanford Production Reactors. Twenty two different categories are considered as primary reasons for maintenance down times. The data is stored in terms of hours spent on different tasks, and is also grouped by the controlling cause of the outage.

Verify that the multigroup code P1MG and its associated library yield, for a flat flux problem, the same few group constants as the MUFT fast constant code.

Thesis submitted to University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Activities in a program to determine the wetting behavior of pure metals such as Au, Ag, Ge, Al, and Cu on solid Be are reported. Results of similar investigations of binary alloys such as Be--Ti, Be-Zr, and Be--Pd are also included. The contact angles of the molten metals on Be as a function of temperature, exposure time, and atmosphere were measured. The solid-liquid interfacial reactions occurring as a function of test temperature and atmosphere were investigated, and the liquid- vapor and internal surface tensions for those systems in which interfacial reactions did not appear to occur were calculated.

This memorandum discusses coupling of the reactor exhaust system to the filter building, under Project CG-791, which will require diversion of the 105 Building exhaust air to two temporary stacks. The temporary stacks will be installed over each of two exhaust fans. The use of these temporary (short) stacks during the tie-in period (estimated at 8 to 16 days) could greatly aggravate radiological problems because of reduced dilution and of the reactor building exhaust air. Special operating requirements are given.

An experimental investigation into the gas dynamics of a jet-driven vortex tube for application of a cavity nuclear reactor to rocket propulsion has shown that viscous retardation of the vortex motion is severe, because of a high level of turbulence near the periphery. Based on the experience gained in this study, it is estimated that the achievement of vortex strengths sufficient for practical application will require the use of small diameter tubes with appreciable expenditure of power for recirculation of the gas. The effect of the high degree of turbulence on the separation process near the periphery remains to be determined. The independent variables which were found to influence the vortex strength significantly for a given gas and temperature condition are the tube diameter, the mass flow rate per unit tube length, the injection velocity, and the wall pressure. Estimates of the degree of turbulence in vortex flow have been made from data on the variation in tangential velocity with radius. Virtual (total) viscosities near the periphery ranged from 30 to 700 times the molecular viscosity for tangential Reynolds numbers of from 4 x 10/sup 4/ to 2 x l0/sup 6/. Measurements of the position of the mole- fraction peak …
