Safety assessment for W82 spinner
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:7255734
A safety analysis is provided for the W82 spinners that the Oak Ridge Gaseous Diffusion Plant furnishes the Sandia National Laboratory, Albuquerque, and the Bendix Corporation, Kansas City. An assessment of the containment, torsional mounting, air turbine, lid closure, explosive hazard, safety interlocks, and secondary personnel protection is evaluated using the latest available engineering data and containment experience derived from /approximately/25 years of gas centrifuge devlopment and operation. This report is revised to specifically evaluate the spin tester to contain the W-82 telemetry (TM) fixture with a moment of inertia of 4.1 in.-lb-s/sup 2/ operating at a speed of 18,000 rpm with an energy level of 7,283,768 in.-lb. The neutron detector (ND) fixture is also covered under the TM limitation because its moment of inertia is 0.33 in.-lb-s/sup 2/ with 22,000 rpm operation and an energy level of 875,762 in.-lb.
