Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There were four large-scale sodium fire tests completed to provide a data base for computer code validation; three for the ABCOVE program and one for the SOFICOV program. The purpose of the ABCOVE program is to provide a basis for judging the adequacy of existing aerosol behavior computer codes to describe inherent aerosol attenuation in containment buildings during postulated accidents. The program involves both analytical calculations by code developers and users, and large-scale confirmatory tests in the 850-m3 containment vessel of the Containment Systems Test Facility (CSTF) operated by the Westinghouse Hanford Company. A key element of both programs is that all code calculations are made without knowledge of the experimental results, and thus, provide a true measure of the code capabilities without benefit of post-test fitting.

Book excerpt: When aerosols generated by sodium fires are released to the atmosphere, they are of concern in two primary areas. First, these aerosols may adversely impact the health of persons exposed to them. Second, the air intake ports that are used for reactor cooling might suffer restricted flow under high aerosol concentrations. We have performed studies related to both of these areas. The Gaussian plume atmospheric dispersion model (Slase 1968) is the most widely used approach for modeling the atmospheric concentration and deposition of aerosols for health impact assessments. We have compared predictions from one implementation of this model (Fields and Miller 1980) with actual measured air and ground concentrations for sodium aerosols released to the atmosphere (Miller, Fields, and Wiseman 1982). The observed values used in this study come from seven atmospheric sodium release tests conducted at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) during 1978 and 1979. An important consideration when evaluating the possible consequences of a sodium fire is the sodium aerosol concentration at the air intake ports that are used for reactor cooling, which may suffer restricted flow under high aerosol concentrations. We have devised and applied a methodology for estimating the concentration of aerosols released vertically and horizontally from building surfaces and monitored at other building surface points. We have used this methodology to make calculations that indicate the time development of aerosol buildup, and the maximum aerosol concentrations, at air intake ports. 12 refs., 1 fig., 2 tabs.

Book excerpt: This report describes the development and the lessons learned from the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Sodium Fire Testing Program (DRS 26.03). The purpose of this program was to evaluate the behavior of the Sodium Fire Suppression System and validate the analytical techniques used in the calculation of the effects of sodium fires in air-filled cells. This report focuses on the fire suppression capability and the structural integrity of the Fire Suppression System. System features are discussed; the test facility is described and the key results are provided. Modifications to the fire suppression system and the plant made as a result of test experience are also discussed.

Book excerpt: This report describes the major areas of revision and optimization of the design of the CRBRP Sodium Fire Suppression System (SFSS) following the confirmatory testing program. The design temperatures for the SFSS were substantially increased after the Large Scale Sodium Fire Test (LSSFT) making the original design inadequate. A redesign of the main features was performed in which the experience in the construction of the LSSFT test article was also utilized for optimization. The design criteria, loads and load combinations and revised design are discussed.

This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike existing books of nuclear reactor physics, nuclear engineering and nuclear chemical engineering this book covers a complete description and evaluation of nuclear fission power generation. It covers the whole nuclear fuel cycle, from the extraction of natural uranium from ore mines, uranium conversion and enrichment up to the fabrication of fuel elements for the cores of various types of fission reactors. This is followed by the description of the different fuel cycle options and the final storage in nuclear waste repositories. In addition the release of radioactivity under normal and possible accidental conditions is given for all parts of the nuclear fuel cycle and especially for the different fission reactor types.
