Abstract

A series of experiments was performed at the Battelle-Pacific Northwest Laboratories on water-flooded arrays of Fast Test Reactor fuel elements (PuO/sub 2/-UO/sub 2/) intermixed with solid neutron absorbers. The objective of these experiments was to provide reliable experiment data that could be used to benchmark computer codes and calculational schemes commonly used in criticality analysis of such systems. The neutron absorbers used were cadmium and Boral plates and gadolinium cylindrical rods. Critical array sizes were determined for square lattice pitches ranging from 9.7 to 24.9 mm, corresponding to water-to-fuel volume ratios of 3.5 to approx. 31 (hydrogen atom to fissile atom ratios of 58 to 473). For both systems, poisoned and unpoisoned, the minimum number of rods required for criticality occurred at a lattice pitch of approx. 20.5 mm, which also corresponds to a water-to-fuel volume ratio of 20.5.

10. Criticality Studies for a Neutron Multiplier

Abstract

Critical experiments were performed on an annular assembly of 9(3.2) wt% /sup 235/U enriched U-Al alloy fuel elements in light water to provide data for the design and operation of a subcritical neutron multiplier of a /sup 252/Cf neutron source. The various factors affecting criticality were determined. In addition to measurement of the critical fuel rod loading under various conditions, values of k/sub eff/ were determined as a function of fuel rod loading by means of pulsed neutron source experiments. The data provide the design basis for operation of the neutron multiplier, yielding a maximum flux value in the internal irradiation column consistent with maintaining a degree of subcriticality in operation.

Abstract

The results and analyses presented are from the latest series of experiments in a continuing program for determining the critical parameters of plutonium mixtures having concentrations typical of wet powders, precipitates, slurries, and polymers. Previous measurements in this program were made on 15 H/Pu fuel having 240Pu isotopic concentrations of 2.2 and 8.08 wt% and on 5 H/Pu fuel having a 240Pu isotopic concentration of 11.46 wt%. This latest series of experiments was conducted with fuel in which the 240Pu isotopic content has been increased to 18.35 wt% and the H/Pu atomic ratio decreased to essentially zero. The minimum critical slab thickness for a water-reflected homogeneous PuO2-water system of this composition was determined to be 2.31 ± 0.06 cm as compared to only 1.15 ± 0.03 cm for Pu-water. Thus, having the plutonium in an oxide form at this degree of moderation results in an increase of about a factor of 2 in the critical thickness. For spherical geometry, the difference in critical mass bet...
