An Engineering Method for Calculating Protection Afforded by Structures Against Fallout Radiation

From Introduction: "The purpose of the paper is to discuss the assumptions and the reasoning by which the calculations described in the Engineering Manual were derived from the data in [1]. The relevant curves from [1] are given in Appendix A and the technical charts from the Engineering Manual are given in appendix B."

A Computer Program for Calculating One-Dimensional Hydrodynamic Flow: KO Code

A computer program is described for the solution of shock, detonation, and spall problems for one-dimensional linear, cylindrical, or spherical hydrodynamic flow. The Flume option is used for calculating flow- through arbitrary cross sections. (R.J.S.)

IPD reactor training text, declassified supplement: Chapter 2, Design and construction of the Hanford production reactors

Purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of reactor construction and an understanding of important design considerations: how it is built, why it was built that way, what it is supposed to do, what the nuclear safety considerations are, and what one needs to know about its design/construction to properly operate it.

Conversion ratio tables (open access)

Conversion ratio tables

This manual provides a list of the quantities of plutonium and plutonium isotope formation. Other isotopes whose concentrations are important and included in this report are U-236 buildup, U-235 burnout, U burnout, Np-237 build-up, GVR (the Gas Volume Ratio) in coproduct target elements and equivalent gram of plutonium. These conversion tables have been calculated on the IBM 7090 digital computer using a program entitled ``FLEX-3.`` The results of the computer solutions have not been normalized to conversion observed by Chemical Processing Department measurement since none are yet available. Conversion ratios for four types of N-Reactor fuel have been evaluated, they are: (1).947 percent U-235 normal fuel loading; (2)1.25 percent U-235 ``spike`` enrichment; (3)1.25 percent U-235 outer, Li-Al inner -- coproduct fuel; (4)1.96 percent U-235 outer, Li-Al inner -- coproduct fuel.

The Application of an Operational Reactivity Accounting System Based on One-Group Diffusion Theory (open access)

The Application of an Operational Reactivity Accounting System Based on One-Group Diffusion Theory

HW-70780, {open_quotes}An Operational Reactivity Accounting System Based on One-Group Diffusion Theory{close_quotes} describes a reactivity accounting system which is an improvement over the present {open_quotes}flux-squared weighting{close_quotes} system. Several changes and additions have been made which will simplify and increase the accuracy of the system described in the parent document. The changes occur primarily in the application of the system and are compatible with diffusion theory and the parent document. Each change will be described briefly and to illustrate their application an example reactivity balance, using the reactivity accounting system, will be performed.

The Hydrolysis of the Rare-Earth Carbides (open access)

The Hydrolysis of the Rare-Earth Carbides

From introductory paragraph: "This report concerns the hydrolysis of rare-earth dicarbides, sesquicarbides, solid solutions of carbon in rare-earth metals as well as rare-earth carbon alloys of varying compositions. Many of the carbide samples used in this study were those which had been studied by Gschneider (9)(7) and had been preserved in evacuated, sealed tubes. Some additional preparations of the sesquicarbides were made especially for these studies. The hydrolytic reactions were carried out in water and hydrochloric acid solutions of varying concentrations. Assay of the gaseous products was by mass spectrometry and gas chromatography. Both instruments were carefully calibrated with pure hydrocarbons and hydrogen and mixture thereof."
