The adsorption of fission products on VHTR structural materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR) is being considered as a candidate for the next generation of nuclear reactors. There are several areas that require further study in VHTR reactor designs. One such area is the adsorption of fission products...
Total hemispherical emissivity of very high temperature reactor (VHTR) candidate materials : Hastelloy X, Haynes 230, and Alloy 617
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
An experimental system was constructed in accordance with the standard ASTM C835-06 to measure the total hemispherical emissivity of structural materials of interest in Very High Temperature Reactor (VHTR) systems. The system was tested with 304...
Transport of helium and fission product gases in porous/fractured geometry
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Measuring and quantifying the transport of helium and fission products in reactor materials is a critical element in the future success of Very High Temperature Reactors (VHTR...
Surface characterization and measurements of adhesion force between graphite clustered particles and Hastelloy X surface using an atomic force microscope
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This work reports preliminary results on the determination of the adhesion forces between a graphite cluster probe and Hastelloy X samples having different surface conditions...
Adsorption of water vapor by selected containment aerosols : chlorides and cement dust
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The macroscopic adsorption isotherms of water vapor on selected containment aerosols of a nuclear reactor such as cesium iodide, cesium chloride, potassium chloride, lithium...
Modification of nano and micro-phase diamond powder for enhancement of hydrogen storage
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
by fluence values of 3x10[superscript 15], and 4.3x10[superscript 18]n/cm[superscript 2] at the Missouri University Research Reactor (MURR). The creation of micro-porous structure in diamond powders for storage of hydrogen is discussed. Prompt Gamma Neutron...
