A DESCRIPTION OF THE HIGH TEMPERATURE LATTICE TEST REACTOR

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4693157· OSTI ID:4693157
A High Temperature Lattice Test Reactor (HTLTR) now under design by Hanford Laboratories is described. A solid-moderated reactor lattice may be inserted for testing. Reactivity transients of the test lattices associated with changes in temperature of either moderator or fuel can be obtained in support of design and hazards analyses of proposed power reactors. The experimental equipment and facilities associated with the reactor are also described. A listing of the scope design data is included as well as diagrams showing examples of core loadings. (auth)
