Multiplication Measurements With Highly Enriched Uranium Metal Slabs

A series of neutron multiplication measurements with arrays of 1 by 8 by 10 in. slabs of 93.4% U/sup 235/-enriched uranium metal was made to provide data from which safety criteria for the storage of these fissile units can be established. Each slab contained 22.9 kg of U/sup 235/. A maximum of 125 units was assembled. The arrays studied were cubic lattices of the units and were usually parallelepipedal in shape. Arrays were both unmoderated and Plexiglas- moderated and were surrounded in most cases by a 1-in.-thick Plexiglas reflector. The lattice densities (ratio of fissile unit volume to lattice cell volume) were between 0.023 and 0.06. Unmoderated lattices with a density of 0.06 would require 145 plus or minus 5 units for criticality, while those with a density of 0.023 would require 350 plus or minus 30 units. In lattices in which the fissile units are separated by 1 in. of Plexiglas, approximately 27 units would be required for a critical array with a lattice density of 0.06 and about 75 units for a density of 0.023. Distributing Foamglas (containing 2% boron) throughout a moderated array increased the critical number of fissile units by a factor of 5, while Styrofoam …

Proposed projection fuel testing program 2 (open access)

Proposed projection fuel testing program 2

Sufficient changes in the original projection fuel testing schedule have occurred to make the original schedules confusing. It is the intent of this document to revise an up-date those schedules so as to be a more realistic guide for associated development programs.
