HBWR PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS
Technical Report

OSTI ID:4196554
The Halden Boiling Water Reactor is a heavy water moderated reactor fueled with natural U. The experimental program to be carried out with HBWR includes experiments with two different fuel charges: one with natural metallic U canned in Al and 1.5% enriched U oxide eiements canned in Zircaloy. The total fuel investment in the first charge is 7 tons of U and the total D/sub 2/,O investment is 16 tons. The 7 tons of U are shared between 296 fuel elements which are arranged in a hexagonal lattice, in the second charge the total fuel investment will be approximately tons and will be operated with a radial heavy water reflector of approximately 55 cm.
