Gas-cooled fast breeder reactor. Quarterly progress report, November 1, 1977--January 31, 1978. [Core assembly; fuels and materials; thermohydraulics; kinetics; shielding; systems and components; safety]
Progress is summarized in the areas of development of GCFR fuel, blanket, and control assemblies; development of the pressure equalization system for GCFR fuel; out-of-pile loop facility test programs; fuels and materials development; fuel, blanket, and control rod analyses and development; nuclear analysis and reactor physics for GCFR core design; shielding requirements for the GCFR; reactor engineering to assess the thermal, hydraulic, and structural performance of the core and the core support structure; plant systems control; systems engineering; development of reactor components; development of a helium circulator test facility; reactor safety, environment, and risk analyses, including planning and support of an in-pile and out-of-pile safety test program; and development of a reliability data bank.
