    摘要: An apparatus and process for control rod assembly and construction for a nuclear reactor is disclosed wherein the control rod is of cruciform configuration having a plurality of and preferably four flat planar members. Each planar member is made up with an assembly of square cross sectioned tubular members. Each square cross sectioned tubular member includes a defined cylindrical center and a constant thickness surrounding tubular metallic shell to provide the contained neutron absorbing materials in a cylindrically shaped pressure vessel. The constant thickness surrounding tubular shell constituting the cylindrical shaped pressure vessel has four corner sections added to generate a modified square exterior profile. These added four corner sections comprise an addition to the tubular side wall thickness of the shell. Appropriate chamfers and rounding are provided to the square profile to impart both stress relief and convenient points for automated welding between side-by-side square sections. The square cross sectioned tubular members when welded together extend axially and longitudinally the length of the control rod in the direction of control rod movement and fluid flow. The square cross sectioned tubular members are filled with a neutron absorbing material, plugged at both ends, and fastened by welding in side-by-side relation to form the planar control rod members of the required cruciform shape. These square cross sectioned tubular members as welded in side-by-side relation are in integral portion of the longitudinal support structure of the control rod and fasten and interconnect the handle at the top of the control rod and a conventional velocity limiting device at the bottom of the control rod. The fastening of the handles and velocity limiting device at the respective top and bottom provides a secondary and supplemental seal to primary plugs containing the neutron absorbing material. If needed for enhanced life, provision is made for the incorporation of a hafnium plate in a rectangular sectioned tube adjacent the handle at upper end of the control rod, this tip being variable in length dependent upon individual control rod requirements. Thus square sectioned tubular members form an improved poison containing cylindrical volume for providing resultant improved control rod worth and increased in service life time in moderating and shutting down nuclear reactions. Consequently, the disclosed construction can be used both for conventional control rods as well as for control rod configured for control cell locations.

    摘要: A velocity limiting device providing greater resistance to motion through a fluid in one direction than in the opposite direction. The device includes a toroidally shaped control member having a smooth generally conical surface on one side for low resistance movement through the fluid in the one direction. On its opposite side the control member is formed with at least one groove providing a concave surface spaced from which is an arrangement of vanes forming a jet for directing a stream of fluid into the groove upon movement in the opposite direction whereby the resultant increase in fluid turbulence increases resistance to rapid movement in this opposite direction.

    摘要: In a control rod construction for moderating and controlling a reaction of a nuclear reactor, a control rod structure is disclosed in which hafnium is welded to stainless steel. Typically, the control rod is confined for movement axially along its length into and out of the reactor. The hafnium is surrounded in the control rod structure by a sheath of stainless steel to inhibit movement relative to the control rod structure other than in the axial direction of control rod movement. The hafnium is friction welded to the stainless steel of the control rod so as to stress the weld in either tension or compression due to dynamic loading occurring from control rod movement. The stainless steel to which the hafnium is welded is in turn conventionally welded or mechanically connected to the remaining steel components of the control rod. There results a secure control rod structure having welded hafnium that can withstand the dynamic loadings of fast insertion of control rods such as those loadings which commonly occur under rapid control rod acceleration and deceleration due to SCRAM of a reactor.

    摘要: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and products are described for creating a behavioral model of a hardware device for use in a simulation environment. The behavioral model is created by an iterative process that includes receiving in a simulated hardware device from a simulated device under test (‘DUT’) a stimulus waveform. The stimulus waveform includes data representing a number of stimuli. In response to receiving the stimulus waveform, the simulated hardware device presents a recorded response waveform from a recorded response file to the DUT. The stimulus waveform is also recorded. The recorded stimulus waveform is presented to the hardware device. A response waveform that results from presenting the recorded stimulus waveform to the hardware device is recorded in the recorded response file.

    摘要: A system for publishing data on shared broadcast channels using spread-spectrum techniques, which may comprise a spread-spectrum encoder capable of receiving data and placing it in a spread-spectrum signal format and a transmitter operating on a shared communication channel or frequency band, such as might be allocated to terrestrial point-to-point or broadcast communications. The shared communication channel may comprise a cellular system, in which data may be transmitted using spread-spectrum techniques using the transmitters and repeaters of the cellular system simultaneously with voice and other transmissions associated with the cellular system. A subscriber station may be capable of receiving using a plurality of different communication channels or frequency bands, such as a first receiver capable of cellular reception and a second receiver capable of satellite reception, at least one of which uses spread-spectrum techniques. The subscriber station may also comprise a transmitter using at least one communication channel or frequency band, so that the subscriber station may receive data or other transmissions using one channel and may request further data or other transmissions using a second channel.
