INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR BR-2 FUEL ELEMENTS
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4038955
Techniques, equipment, and inspection procedures were developed for the metallurgical and dimensional acceptance examination of fuel elements for the Material and Engineering Test Reactor (BR-2). Steps in the procedure include visual inspection, dimensional verification, checking of the cladding thickness, and ultrasonic testing of core-tocladding bond integrity. The use of radiography and fluoroscopy in determining the core location and homogeneity of the core alloy is discussed along with the need for chemical analysis of the core. The BR- 2 fuel element specification is also included. (M.C.G.)
