Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4665789· OSTI ID:4665789
Progress is reported on the development of gas-cooled reactors. The report contains eleven sections which are abstracted separately in NSA. These sections are contained in two parts: investigations in support of the Experimental Gas-Cooled Reactor and advanced reactor design and development. The four sections abstracted under Part I are: performance analyses, component development and testing, materials development, and irradiation testing of components and materials. The remaining sections are under Part II and they are: development of fueled-graphite bodies, investigations of fueled-graphite systems, clad fuel development, investigations of moderator materials, studies of advanced systems, experimental investigations of heat transfer and fluid flow, and facilities and equipment.
