Jones, H

The US-DOE was invited to attend the First JAERI Symposium on HTGR Technologies'' in Tokyo, Japan, to present papers and to chair a session Mr. A. C. Millunzi, Director, Division of HTGRs, accepted for the US-DOE and submitted the following paper titles and authors to the conference organizers: Present Status and Future Program of HTGR in the USA,'' Millunzi, A. C. (US-DOE); Licensing Overview of the MHTGR,'' Millunzi, A. C. (US-DOE); Modular High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor Design,'' Bramblett, G. C. (General Atomics); Research and Development Associated With Licensing of MHTGR'' Jones, H. (ORNL) The papers were accepted, and the three authors attended the symposium as a US-DOE team. The symposium program and pre-prints of the paper abstracts are attached to this report (Appendix B). Additional papers by US authors from the utility industry will also be found in the program. This traveler also visited JAERI research establishments, with specific tours and discussions relating to the Japan Materials Test Reactor (JMTR) and HTTR reactors, the Helium Engineering Demonstration Loop (HENDEL), and the Very-High-Temperature Reactor Criticals (VHTRC) assembly test facility. All are involved in research under the DOE/JAERI HTGR Collaboration Agreement. Also visited was the NFI fuel manufacturing facility, where fuel for the HTTR was being processed at the time of our visit. Samples of this fuel are to be irradiated later in ORNL's High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR).
