OSTI ID:10115172
Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL) has conducted several one-year irradiation tests of light-water reactor (LWR)-type tritium target rods. This report discusses these tests which have been sponsored by DOE`s Office of New Production Reactors. The first test, designated water capsule-I (WC-1), was conducted in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at DOE`s Idaho National Engineering Laboratory from November 1989 to December 1990. The test vehicle contained a single four-foot target rod within a pressurized water capsule. The capsule maintained the rod at PWR-type water temperature and pressure conditions.
