Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4090981
The 4-Mw swimming pool reactor located at Quehanna, Pennsylvania, is to be utilized for shielding studies, reactor component and instrument development, radiation damage studies, neutron physics studies, isotope production, activation analysis, and training. Supporting facilities, site, operational procedures, and safety devices are described in detail. The effects of human and instrument errors, particularly in combination with the failure of safety devices, are examined. The possible consequences of the release of radioactivity to the general environment are considered. (W.D.M.)
