Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Niobium-clad niobium cermets and Type 430 stainless steel-clad molybdenum and chromium cermets, all containing 80 vol% 20% enriched UO2, prepared by vapordeposition techniques or from the powders and densified and clad by gas-pressure bonding, were subjected to hightemperature high-heat-flux irradiation in the MTR. Two instrumerted double-walled capsules, each containing duplicate NaK-immersed cylindrical specimens of the three compositions were involved. Specimen diameters were varied according to the particular cermet thermal conductivity in an attempt to secure central temperatures of about 0.6 of the matrix melting point. Probably because of weld failures in both capsules, irradiation temperatures were higher than intended, causing loss of the chromium cermets in one capsule and all of the cermets in the other capsule. The remaining specimens were given a postirradiation dimensional and metallographic examination. The niobium-clad niobium-UO2 cermet exhibited excellent stability at estimated center-line temperatures above 2500 deg F. A density decrease of only 1.4% was measured at a burnup of about 4 at.%. Although the capsule overheating caused the molybdenum-UO2 cermet to partially melt, areas only a few mils from the melted zone showed no evidence of damage from the adverse conditions of the irradiation.

Book excerpt: NSA is a comprehensive collection of international nuclear science and technology literature for the period 1948 through 1976, pre-dating the prestigious INIS database, which began in 1970. NSA existed as a printed product (Volumes 1-33) initially, created by DOE's predecessor, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). NSA includes citations to scientific and technical reports from the AEC, the U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration and its contractors, plus other agencies and international organizations, universities, and industrial and research organizations. References to books, conference proceedings, papers, patents, dissertations, engineering drawings, and journal articles from worldwide sources are also included. Abstracts and full text are provided if available.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial growth, energy consumption are seen as measures towards economic developments. With increase in industrial development worldwide, the demand of energy is continually on the rise. Today, the energy industry is facing many challenges. Nuclear fission and nuclear fusion are seen as important future energy sources. Development of innovative reactor designs with large efficiency for fuel burn up is one of the needs of fission reactors. The materials resistant to high dose of radiations in fusion reactors is another major challenge. The production of electricity without global warming is an important pressing demand on the energy sector. The demands on quality control of components for nuclear and heavy industry are very stringent. Development of well characterized, high quality materials is therefore essential for safe, efficient and reliable operation of engineering components. The diagnosis of failure of machinery parts comes from the post operational characterization of materials. Various destructive and non-destructive techniques are used for this purpose. Research reactors have played an important role in non-destructive characterization of materials and have contributed to technology development. This publication focuses on characterization of materials for industries in general and nuclear energy sector in particular. The main focus is on research reactor based techniques with some discussion on other allied methods like positron annihilation.--Publisher's description.
