Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of September l961, construction of the Heavy Water Components Test Reactor was about 90% complete. Thirty-two compacted tubes of crushed, fused uranium oxide in Zircaloy sheaths were fabricated for irradiation tests and destructive evaluation. lrradiation tests of the tubes were started in the Vallecitos Boiling Water Reactor and at Savannah River. The fabrication process for the tubes included steps designed to exclude hydrogenous material from the oxide cores, thereby eliminating the probable cause of sheath failures in previous irradiations. Additional experimental data on heat transfer burnout of tubes in subcooled water at pressures of about 100 to 1000 psi showed that the burnout heat flux is not affected significantiy by pressure in this range. The data were correlated in terms of water velocity and subcooling. (auth).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of 1959, 25% of the construction and 85% of the firm design of the Heavy Water Components Test Reactor (HWCTR) were complete. Further safeguards analyses of the HWCTR, done with the aid of analog and digital computers, corroberated earlier data which indicated that the reactor is highly self-regulating, and that the safety system should prevent release of radioactivity outside the containment building. Fabrication tests of metallic uranium fuels and preparation of irradiation specimens of swaged uranium oxide fuel tubes continued. A tube of Zircaloy-2-clad U-2 wt.% Zr failed during a low temperature, low pressure irradiation test to modest exposure. Preliminary examinations of tubular metallurgical joints between Zircaloy and stalnless steel were promising. (For preceding period see DP-445.) (J.R.D.).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of June 1960, 36% of the construction and 94% of the firm design of the Heavy Water Components Test Reactor (HWCTR) were complete. Revised calculations of transients in the liquid-D2O-cooled loop of the HWCTR showed that the safety of the loop was not impaired by recent changes in the location and design of the loop heat exchanger. Preliminary operation of a full- scale mock-up of the bayonet for the boiling-D2O-cooled loop of the HWCTR indicated that flow-induced vibrations probably will not be a serious problem in this loop. Irradiation specimens were prepared of Zircaloy-clad tubes of uranium oxide that had been vibratory-compacted and swaged to 91% of theoretical density. The National Research University irradiation of a Zircaloy-clad uranium metal fuel tube was terminated because of mechanical damage to the assembly during an attempted reinsertion into the reactor loop. Tandemextruded joints of Zircaloy to stainless steel were readied for long-term irradiation tests to determine the effects of exposure on the mechanical properties of the joints. (For preceding period see DP-505.) (auth).
