We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
46 POWER REACTORS HOMOGENEOUS REACTOR EXPERIMENT-II (1958). 19 minutes, color. Produced by USAEC's Oak Ridge National Laboratory. For sale by Byron Motion Pictures, at $60.84 per print, including ship- ping case, F.O.B. Washington, D. C. Available for loan (free) from USAEC headquarters, field libraries, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tenn. Cleared for television. This film summarizes the components, facilities, and operations of Homogeneous Reactor Experiment No. II, an aqueous, homogeneous, forced-circulation, experimental power reactor operating with a dilute solution of uranyl sulfate in heavy water as fuel, and with a heavy- water reflector. Designed output of the core is at a heat range of 5000 kw. THE HWCTR AND THE HEAVY WATER POWER REACTOR PROGRAM (1962). 3lV 2 minutes, color. Produced by the USAEC's Savannah River Operations Office, John L. Feierbacher, consultant. For sale by Byron Motion Pictures, at $87.03 per print, including shipping case, F.O.B. Washington, D. C. Available for loan (free) from USAEC head- quarters and field libraries. Cleared for television. This film depicts the growing need for nuclear power and describes the features of heavy water reactors for use in power production. The development program conducted by the Atomic Energy Commission on this reactor concept is described in detail. Design studies performed on promising heavy water reactor concepts established the technical feasibility and economic promise of this concept. A number of research tasks in the fields of fuel design, engineering of low leakage com- ponents, studies of heat transfer and the physics of natural uranium heavy water systems were investigated in detail by Dupont and other research contractors to the USAEC. The facilities at the Savannah River Laboratory and at commercial laboratories used in this program are shown. Primary emphasis in the development program was placed on design of an inexpensive natural uranium fuel element for the heavy water reactor. Processes of fuel fabrication of both uranium metal and uranium oxide are described. To verify the results of the fuel develop- ment and other engineering programs a test reactor called a Heavy Water Components Test Reactor (HWCTR) was constructed at the Savannah River Plant. The film describes the construction of this reactor and outlines in detail the technical features and capabilities of the HWCTR and its special loop systems in demonstrating the heavy water reactor concept.
