    • An apparatus and process for control rod assembly and construction for a nuclear reactor is disclosed wherein the control rod is of cruciform configuration having a plurality of and preferably four flat planar members. Each planar member is made up with an assembly of square cross sectioned tubular members. Each square cross sectioned tubular member includes a defined cylindrical center and a constant thickness surrounding tubular metallic shell to provide the contained neutron absorbing materials in a cylindrically shaped pressure vessel. The constant thickness surrounding tubular shell constituting the cylindrical shaped pressure vessel has four corner sections added to generate a modified square exterior profile. These added four corner sections comprise an addition to the tubular side wall thickness of the shell. Appropriate chamfers and rounding are provided to the square profile to impart both stress relief and convenient points for automated welding between side-by-side square sections. The square cross sectioned tubular members when welded together extend axially and longitudinally the length of the control rod in the direction of control rod movement and fluid flow. The square cross sectioned tubular members are filled with a neutron absorbing material, plugged at both ends, and fastened by welding in side-by-side relation to form the planar control rod members of the required cruciform shape. These square cross sectioned tubular members as welded in side-by-side relation are in integral portion of the longitudinal support structure of the control rod and fasten and interconnect the handle at the top of the control rod and a conventional velocity limiting device at the bottom of the control rod. The fastening of the handles and velocity limiting device at the respective top and bottom provides a secondary and supplemental seal to primary plugs containing the neutron absorbing material. If needed for enhanced life, provision is made for the incorporation of a hafnium plate in a rectangular sectioned tube adjacent the handle at upper end of the control rod, this tip being variable in length dependent upon individual control rod requirements. Thus square sectioned tubular members form an improved poison containing cylindrical volume for providing resultant improved control rod worth and increased in service life time in moderating and shutting down nuclear reactions. Consequently, the disclosed construction can be used both for conventional control rods as well as for control rod configured for control cell locations.

    • The method facilitates sealing a control rod drive (CRD) housing to a stub tube in a reactor pressure vessel of a nuclear reactor, if any cracks develop proximate a heat affected zone of the stub tube at a CRD housing re-attachment weld. The method includes cutting the CRD housing to separate an upper portion of the CRD housing from a lower portion of the CRD housing. The lower portion remains in place and in substantial alignment with the upper portion of the CRD housing. A lower portion member, which may be the lower portion that was cut, is re-attached to the reactor vessel by a re-attachment weld at a location below potential differential leakage paths along the CRD housing. The heat affected zone (e.g., at the re-attachment weld) is covered with a corrosion resistant material to prevent future leaking, and to protect the weld from inter-granular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC).
    • 该方法有助于将控制棒驱动器(CRD)壳体密封到核反应堆的反应堆压力容器中的短管,如果在CRD壳体重新附接焊缝处附近存在裂纹发生在短截线管的热影响区域附近。 该方法包括切割CRD壳体以将CRD壳体的上部与CRD壳体的下部分离。 下部保持在适当位置并且与CRD壳体的上部基本对准。 下部部件,其可以是被切割的下部,通过在沿着CRD壳体的潜在的差动泄漏路径下方的位置处的再附着焊接被重新附接到反应堆容器。 热影响区域(例如,在再附着焊接处)被覆盖有耐腐蚀材料以防止将来泄漏,并保护焊缝免受颗粒间应力腐蚀开裂(IGSCC)的影响。
