NUCLEAR SAFETY ANALYSES OF A TYPICAL PRODUCTION LINE FOR HIGH-FIRED U02 AT ≤ 4.5% U235 ISOTOPIC COMPOSITION

摘要

A compilation of Nuclear Safety Analyses that exemplify those currently in use in the Y-12 Plant, along with a description of the form used, is presented. This form has been specially designed to facilitate nuclear safety analysis by the double contingency method described elsewhere (Y-A2-261).nThe analyses presented in this report illustrate the way in which approval might be given to a typical process flow for production of high-fired UO2 from UF6material at ≤ 4.5% U235 isotopic com¬position.
