Abstract

1,114,285. Reactors. R. SCHLOTTAU. 6 Sept., 1965 [17 Sept., 1964], No. 37960/65. Heading G6C. A reactor with a solid moderator core is controlled by forming the moderator from zirconium hydride and zirconium deuteride rods, or zirconium hydro-deuteride rods, some or all of which are replaceable to vary the hydrogen-deuterium ratio. In one embodiment the reactor core comprises moderator rods of zirconium hydro-deuteride between which the fuel rods are introduced. Two stocks of moderator rods are used, in one of which the hydrogendeuterium mixture comprises 20% hydrogen and 80% deuterium, while in the other stock this mixture comprises 80% hydrogen and 20% deuterium, and by appropriate distribution in the reactor core it is possible to obtain from both rod stocks almost continuously any desired hydrogen/deuterium ratio. Alternatively, a number of stocks of rods of various hydrogen/deuterium ratios are used and, in addition, stocks of pure zirconium hydride and zirconium deuteride rods. It is also possible to replace one or more of the above rods by canned or uncanned rods which contain graphite, beryllium or beryllium oxide in order to influence the neutron flux distribution.
