- W2059133051 abstract "Retention of fission products by the water environment surrounding a water-moderated reactor has long been considered an effective measure for reducing the radiological consequences of a reactor accident. Little credit has been taken for this factor in reactor safety analyses, however, because experimental evidence as to the degree of this reduction has been lacking. An unusual opportunity to study the retention effect of the water environment upon the fraction and type of fission products released during a reactor accident was provided as part of an experimental program in aerospace safety conducted by Phillips Petroleum Company for the United States Atomic Energy Commission. In separate experiments two modified SNAP 10A/2 flight system reactors containing fuel made of an alloy of uranium and zirconium-hydride were intentionally destroyed. One of these reactors was tested while immersed in water and the other was tested in air to determine the consequence of an uncontrolled self-limiting excursion in each of these environments. This paper compares the fission product release information obtained from these experiments and evaluates the fission product retention effect of the water environment. The major conclusions reached regarding the retention effect of the water environment are that: The water cooling effect on the hot fuel, which limited the destruction of the fuel and caused the fission products to remain trapped in the fuel matrix, is an important mechanism in suppressing the release of fission products. The release fraction of noble gas fission products is greatly reduced by a water environment. Only 4% of the total noble gas fission products were released from the water-immersion test. Halogen and “solid” fission products from an underwater destruction excursion are completely retained, provided the water environment exists following the excursion." @default.
