Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4202900
The EGCR is a combined experimental and power demonstration reactor which is to be constructed at Oak Ridge. It is fueled with enriched UO/sub 2/, clad in stainless steel, moderated with graphite, and cooled with He. The plant is designed to produce 85 Mw(th) and 25 Mw(e) at a gas outlet temperature of 1050 deg F. The core and vessel of the EGCR (an accommodate eight tubes through the core, into which experimental loops will eventually be installed. Accidents analyzed include both reactivity accidents and component failures and malfunctions. The maximum allowable oncein-a-lifetime dose of 25r is not exceeded within 8 hr at the nearest uncontrolled land. (W.D.M.)
