PERFORMANCE OF UNIAXIAL CREEP MACHINES IN THE NRX AND NRU REACTORS
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4043448
Reactor Loops Branch began operating creep experiments in 1965. At that time, Mk-IV and Mk-VI machines were in use in NRX and NRU. Since then, a number of disposable machines have been built, resulting in the Mk-X design which may be used in either reactor. Control equipment has been automated, and data retrieval computerized. The original and re-designed equipment is described, with details of its operational reliability. (auth)
