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.

SAFETY, WASTE DISPOSAL, AND MONITORING 71 "The SL-1 Accident, Phase 3" is of special interest to adminis- trative, technical, semitechnical, military, contractor, and licensee personnel having responsibilities for the safe operation of nuclear reactors. SNAPTRAN 2/10A WATER IMMERSION TEST (1965). 20 minutes, color. Produced by Phillips Petroleum Company as contractor for the USA EC at the National Reactor Testing Station, Idaho. For sale by Telefilm Industries, at $88.75 per print, including shipping case, F.O.B. Hollywood, California. Available for loan (free) from USAEC headquarters and field libraries. NOT cleared for television. This semitechnical documentary film portrays a test which investi- gated the effects of water immersion on a SNAP-lOA reactor, a sys- tem designed to provide 500 watts of electric energy for powering equipment in a space satellite. Such an accident conceivably could occur if a SNAP-lOA reactor mission aborted on launch and the reactor fell into water. This film describes the basic components of the SNAP-lOA reactor, its method of control, non-nuclear tests which established the reac- tor's physical state after terminal velocity entry into water, and the reactor's neutronic behavior when immersed in water. The testing site and supporting facilities are described. Step-by-step coverage in- cludes preparing the reactor for testing, reactor operation, and preparations for the destructive test, including the functions of various supporting groups. Shown are actual control room action and immediate post-test observation of the reactor remains by means of closed circuit TV. The destructive test itself is shown from six vantage points, including a variety of slow motion sequences, and ultra-high speed silhouette photography of the reactor vessel expansion during disassembly. Animation and live scenes explain reactor behavior during the test and the subsequent radiological results. The information gained and how this information can be applied to assess nuclear accidents is discussed. SPERT-I: REACTOR SAFETY EXPERIMENTS (1958). 32 minutes, color.
