Relocation of the AFSR to the ANL east area site of the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory. Addendum to ANL--6024, design and hazards report for the Argonne Fast Source Reactor (AFSR)
This addendum to the original AFSR safety analysis report--Design and Hazards Report for the Argonne Fast Source Reactor (AFSR), ANL-6024 (June 1959)--describes the relocation of the reactor from the ANL West Area site (EBR-I) to the ANL East Area site (EBR-II) of the National Reactor Testing Station (name changed to the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory in 1974). All design modifications, incorporated just before this reactor was installed at the new site, are documented. The impact these modifications would have on the operational characteristics of the facility are enumerated, and safety related analyses are reported. In addition, the results of supplementary calculations on the radiological consequences of an excursion in AFSR at the East Area site are included.
