FISSION PRODUCT RELEASE FROM HEATED URANIUM (thesis)
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4139966
An investigation of fission product release from irradiated uranium heated in air and helium is reported. The fission product elements, iodine, tellurium, xenon. strontium, cesium, ruthenium, barium, and zirconium were selected for study. Uranium samples were irradiated with neutrons to 2.4 x 10/ sup 14/ nvt, allowed to cool and then heated and cooled rapidly in tests. Results, expressed as % of the isotope released from the specimen, are tabulated. Predictions related to fission product release during reactor incidents are discussed, and conclusions are included.
