- W139968779 abstract "Distortion of the graphite stacks of the Hanford IPD reactors due to neutron irradiation effects has grown to where major corrective or compensatory action must be taken to preserve the operability of the safety control systems and life of the reactors. For the past few years, the line has been satisfactorily held by an aggressive maintenance program and short-range solutions. However, longer range, more permanent solutions are needed and high priority is being given to studies toward these ends. Important from a reactor life standpoint (and of more immediate concern and the subject of this discussion) is the jeopardy the reactors face from the use of the Ball-3X system. Permanent loss of balls in cracks in the graphite stacks following a ball drop is a real possibility in most of the reactors today. Recent, detailed investigations of the internal stack conditions in the K Reactors have revealed gaps opening into the vertical ball channels which are as wide as three inches. Any means to measurably reduce the probability of an inadvertent ball drop without compromising reactor safety could be a much cheaper alternative to any presently contemplated solutions which are directed towards physically preventing loss of balls to the graphite stacks. It is the purpose of this paper to (1) review the Hanford philosophy of the Ball-3X system from the system`s inception to the present use, and (2) pose various questions, the answers to which should hopefully lead to a logical conclusion regarding the future use of the Ball-3X system." @default.
