摘要： Steam explosions can be prevented or mitigated during a metal casting process by the placement of a perforated flooring system in the casting pit. An upward flow of compressed gas through this perforated flooring system is introduced during the casting process to produce a buffer layer between any spilled molten metal and the cooling water in the reservoir. This buffer layer provides a hydrodynamic layer which acts to prevent or mitigate steam explosions resulting from hot, molten metal being spilled into or onto the cooling water.

摘要： A Local Power Range Monitor (LPRM) string is employed between BWR fuel assemblies arranged in side-by-side spaced positions. The string has a hollow tube and neutron detectors located therein at spaced axial locations and being adapted to provide local power monitoring information. The hollow string tube is adapted to receive a neutron flux sensitive probe for calibrating the detectors. Each fuel assembly has an outer hollow tubular channel surrounding fuel rods and spacers disposed within and axially along the channel and about the fuel rods. The spacers are composed of a material incapable of producing a localized change in neutron flux. Elements in the form of strips of a neutron absorber material are attached to the exterior of the channel of each fuel assembly at a respective corner thereon and located axially at different known positions therealong and adjacent to the hollow string tube. The material composing the strips is capable of producing a localized change in neutron flux such that, upon passage of the probe through the hollow string tube and past the strips, the probe will sense the neutron flux change being produced by each of the strips and thereby the position of the probe can be tracked as it is moved through the string tube.

摘要： A fuel assembly has a bundle of elongated fuel rods disposed in a side-by-side relationship so as to form an array of spaced fuel rods, an outer tubular flow channel surrounding the fuel rods so as to direct flow of coolant/moderator fluid along the fuel rods, a hollow water cross extending centrally through and interconnected with the outer flow channel so as to divide the channel into separate compartments and the bundle of fuel rods into a plurality of mini-bundles thereof being disposed in the respective compartments, and a plurality of spacers axially displaced along the fuel rods in each of the mini-bundles thereof. Each of the fuel rods includes an outer cladding tube with an inner clad surface and a plurality of fuel pellets contained within the tube. Each spacer is composed of a plurality of interleaved inner straps and an outer strap encompassing the inner straps. The interleaved inner straps and the outer strap have respective protrusions formed thereon and together define spacer cells into which the respective protrusions extend to maintain the fuel rods received through the spacer cells in laterally spaced relationships in respective corner, side and interior cells defined by the interleaved inner straps and the outer straps. The BWR fuel assembly includes several improvements which enhance its thermal-hydraulic performance. First, each of the fuel rods received through the corner cells of each spacer has a diametric size smaller than that of the fuel rods received through the side and interior cells of each spacer. Also, each of the protrusions in the corner cells extend a greater distance into the corner cells than the distance through which the protrusions in the side and interior cells extend into those cells, whereby increased coolant flow space is provided through the corner cells as compared to the side and interior cells so as to increase heat transfer from the corner fuel rods to the coolant. Second, perforations are formed in the outer strap at the locations of the corner and side cells of the spacer for reducing the amount of strap area adjacent the fuel rods received in the corner and side cells and thereby increasing coolant flow to the corner and side fuel rods. Third, a generally uniform poison coating, such as boron, is applied within at least a majority of the fuel rods, the poison coating being applied to either the fuel pellets or the inner clad surface of the cladding tube of each fuel rod in the majority. Additionally, a predetermined pattern of fuel enrichment is provided with respect to the fuel rods of each mini-bundle thereof which together with the uniform poison coatings within the fuel rods ensures that the peaking powers of fuel rods in the corner and side cells of the spacers are less than the peaking power of a leading one of the fuel rods in the interior cells of the spacers.

摘要： A directional-position sensing fast neutron sensor system is disclosed. The system includes one or more acoustically tensioned metastable fluid detector (ATMFD) for determining the direction of the source of incident neutron radiation. The system has been used to detect the position of a 1 Ci Pu—Be neutron radiation source. The ATMFD detector is comparable in technical performance with directional fast neutron detector-bank technologies but is significantly more economical, smaller, and has little to no interference from nonneutron background radiation. The ATMFD detector can be used to locate hidden neutron sources and has been used in blind tests to do so. Specifically an ATMFD system (with a 6×10 cm cross-sectional area) provides directional information for incoming neutron radiation from an 8 kg Pu source from a distance of 25 m with a resolution of 11.2° at a 68% confidence within 60 seconds. Position and neutron source image sensing were also demonstrated using two ATMFDs.

摘要： A BWR fuel assembly having an array of spaced fuel rods, an outer hollow tubular flow channel surrounding the fuel rods so as to direct flow of coolant/moderator fluid therealong, and a hollow central water cross extending through the channel and composed of radially extending members dividing the fuel rods into separate fuel rod mini-bundle subassemblies which each has fuel rod spacers being displaced from one another along the length of the subassembly, includes features on at least one of the spacers of each subassembly which minimize degradation of CHF performance. These features are coolant flow diverting scoops mounted on the outer peripheral strap of the spacer. The scoops are disposed in spaced apart relation along an upstream side of the outer strap so as to extend inwardly along and in spaced relation from an upstream side of respective ones of the terminal end portions of the interleaved inner straps of the spacer which with the outer strap form a ring of perimeter cell openings in the spacer. The scoops also extend within the respective spaces between those of the fuel rods received through the perimeter cell openings and terminate at inner ends being disposed above a border defined by the inner straps which surrounds and separates a group of inner cell openings defined by the interleaved inner straps from the perimeter cell openings. The scoops have flow deflecting portions disposed in inclined relationships across portions of the coolant flow paths to the perimeter cell openings for causing redistribution of flow to the inner cell openings.

摘要： A BWR fuel assembly having an array of spaced fuel rods, an outer tubular flow channel surrounding the fuel rods to direct flow of coolant fluid therealong, and a central water cross extending through the channel and dividing the fuel rods into separate subassemblies which each has fuel rod support spacers being displaced from one another along the length of the subassembly, includes features in each subassembly which minimize degradation of CHF performance. These features relate to intermediate flow mixing nonsupport grids disposed along each subassembly between and in spaced relation from the uppermost pairs of the spacers. The grid includes first and second groups of mixing vanes disposed at its downstream side. The vanes of the first group are attached on portions of the outer strap and on respective portions of the inner straps which together with the outer strap portions define the perimeter cell openings. The vanes of the second group are attached on other portions of the inner straps which together with the respective portions thereof define the inner cell openings. Each mixing vane of both groups extends downstream and inwardly toward the respective cell openings for deflecting coolant flowing therethrough. The mixing vanes of the second group are substantially smaller in size than those of the first group so as to generate substantially less turbulence in coolant flow through the inner cell openings than through the perimeter cell openings.

摘要： A BWR fuel assembly includes an outer hollow tubular flow channel, a water cross and a plurality of mini-bundles of fuel rods. The outer channel provides an enclosure for directing the flow of coolant/moderator fluid through the fuel assembly. The water cross extends through the outer channel and has a plurality of radially extending members attached along the interior of the outer channel which divide it into a plurality of separate compartments. One mini-bundle of elongated fuel rods is located in each compartment between the interior of the outer flow channel and exterior of the radially extending members of the water cross. Each fuel rod mini-bundle is comprised of an interior array of fuel rods with each fuel rod being of a first predetermined diameter size, and a peripheral array of fuel rods with each fuel rod being of a second predetermined diameter size greater than the first diameter size. The interior array of fuel rods forms an inner, centrally-located, generally squared pattern, whereas the peripheral array of fuel rods forms an outer, peripherally-located, generally squared annular pattern which surrounds the interior array. The fuel rods in both arrays are aligned with one another in columns and rows. The fuel rods of the interior array are ten to twelve percent less in diameter size compared to the fuel rods of the peripheral array.
