RETENTION EFFICIENCIES OF CHARCOAL TRAPS FOR FISSION GASES. Technical Report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4158522· OSTI ID:4158522
The efficiency of charcoal traps for tracer quantities of fission product gases in the presence of macro quantities of a nonisotopic purge or carrier gas was investigated. The effects of charcoal particle size trap temperature and nitrogen carrier gas flow rate were observed with the emphasis on the behavior of xenon and krypton. A limited number of experiments usig iodine as tracer was also performed. Experimental techniques are described and data are included. (J.R.D.)
