Design data package and operating procedures for MSFC solar simulator test facility

Design and operational data for the solar simulator test facility are reviewed. The primary goal of the facility is to evaluate the performance capacibility and worst case failure modes of collectors, which utilize either air or liquid transport media. The facility simulates environmental parameters such as solar radiation intensity, solar spectrum, collimation, uniformity, and solar attitude. The facility also simulates wind conditions of velocity and direction, solar system conditions imposed on the collector, collector fluid inlet temperature, and geometric factors of collector tilt and azimuth angles. Testing the simulator provides collector efficiency data, collector time constant, incident angle modifier data, and stagnation temperature values.

HDG-1 Graphite Preirradiation Data Package Report

This report documents all pre-irradiation examination material-property measurement data for graphite specimens that are going to be used within the first high dose graphite (HDG) -1 irradiation capsule. The two new HDG capsules signify a major change to the AGC Experiment. HDG-1 and HDG-2 will replace the last two Advanced Graphite Creep (AGC) capsules (AGC-5 and AGC-6) which were designed to irradiate graphite at the extreme upper operational temperatures for a very-high-temperature reactor (VHTR) design, 1100°C. These very high temperature AGC-5 and AGC-6 capsules have been repurposed to re-irradiated specimens (from AGC-2, AGC-3, and AGC-4) at the lower temperatures of 600°C and 800°C. HDG-1 will be irradiated at 600°C and HDG-2 will be irradiated at 800°C. By re-irradiating the previous AGC specimens a total maximum neutron dose of around 15 dpa (displacements per atom) can be achieved for all major graphite grades at irradiation temperatures of 600°C and 800°C. Specimens in the HDG-1 capsule are made up of previously irradiated specimens from the AGC-2 capsule and unirradiated specimens prepared for the now discontinued AGC-5 capsule. Utilizing the irradiated specimens, a maximum neutron dose of around 15 dpa is anticipated. These new maximum dose levels will provide irradiated material property data over a total neutron dose range of 1-15 dpa at a temperature of 600°C when combined with the previous AGC-1 and AGC-2 irradiation data. This will provide quantitative data necessary for predicting the irradiation behavior and operating performance of new nuclear graphite grades for use within high temperature reactor designs. Similar to previous AGC test trains, HDG-1 includes the major graphite grades (IG-110, NBG-17, NBG-18, PCEA, and 2114) as well as adding the very fine-grain grade IG-430 which is of interest to the Molten Salt Reactor (MSR) designs. Also new to the HDG-1 capsule are 90 smaller geometry specimens designated as pencil specimens. These specimens take up only one third the space of a standard creep size specimen. This increased number of specimens will enhance property measurement statistics because they will provide 3 times the control specimen data at a position that would otherwise only have a single measurement.

AGC-3 Specimen Post-Irradiation Examination Data Package Report

The Advanced Reactor Technologies Graphite research and development program is conducting an extensive graphite irradiation program to provide data to assist in licensing of a high temperature reactor (HTR) design. In past applications, graphite has been used effectively as a structural and moderator material in both research and commercial high temperature gas cooled reactor designs.[ , ] Nuclear graphite H 451, used previously in the United States for nuclear reactor graphite components, is no longer available. New nuclear graphite grades have been developed and are considered suitable candidates for new HTR designs. To support the design and licensing of HTR core components within a commercial reactor, a complete properties database must be developed for these current grades of graphite. Quantitative data on in service material performance is required for the physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of each graphite grade with a specific emphasis on data accounting for the life limiting effects of irradiation creep. Further details on the research and development activities and associated rationale required to qualify nuclear grade graphite for use within the HTR are documented in the graphite technology research and development plan.[ ] Based on experience with previous graphite core components, the phenomenon of irradiation induced creep within the graphite has been shown to be a critical parameter in determining the total useful lifetime of graphite components. Irradiation induced creep occurs under the simultaneous application of high temperatures, neutron irradiation, and applied stresses within the graphite components. A second, much more significant, internal stress is experienced within the graphite components due to irradiation induced dimensional changes. These induced stresses result from neutron irradiation causing physical changes in the graphite structure, first shrinking it and then expanding it, with increasing neutron dose. This disparity in material volume change can induce significant internal stresses within graphite components. Irradiation induced creep relaxes these large internal stresses, thus reducing the risk of crack formation and component failure. Obviously, higher irradiation creep levels tend to relieve more internal stress, thus allowing the components longer useful lifetimes within the core. Determining the irradiation creep rates of nuclear graphite grades is critical for determining the useful lifetime of graphite components and is a major component of the Advanced Graphite Creep (AGC) experiment.

Test equipment data package for the KC-135 fiber pulling apparatus

The Fiber Pulling Apparatus (FPA) is a device designed to produce continuous glass fibers from simulated lunar soil, and to determine the effects of reduced gravity, specifically 1/6 g on fiber formation and resultant properties. Briefly, pre-melt simulated lunar soil will be placed in a pint crucible and heated to 1200 C or higher, up to a maximum temperature of 1400 C. At a given temperature, a quartz fiber will be immersed into the melt and then pulled through a chill block and wound onto a cylindrical bobbin using a servo motor control. A high resolution video camera will record the fiber as it is being pulled. This assembly wil be enclosed in Plexiglas. Before fiber pulling commences, the apparatus will be backfilled with dry nitrogen. A separate data acquisition system will support this apparatus. This system will contain a personal computer, video recorder, and monitor. Temperature, acceleration, winding speed, and video images will be controlled and recorded using the data acquisition system. Thus, the FPA will consist of two hardware packages, the fiber production assembly and the data acquisition rack. The primary objective of this test is to determine the effects of 1/6 g on the formation of continuous glass fiber made from simulated lunar soil. Baseline studies using the FPA on the ground will provide a reference for the 1/6 g studies. Of particular interest will be the effect of 1/6 g on the free fluid zone where the fiber exits the crucible. In the fiber spinning parlance this zone is known as the upper jet region, where the boundary slope is greater than one tenth. The properties of the resulting glass fiber will depend on the jet shape as well as distributions of velocity, temperature and tension within the jet. It is unknown at this time how 1/6 g will effect these parameters.
