Property Measurements of LiF-NaF-KF Molten Salts Doped with Surrogate Fission Products

Measurements of molten salt properties including transition temperatures, phase behavior, heat capacity, density, volumetric thermal expansion, surface tension, viscosity thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, and vapor pressure are performed at Argonne. The properties of several fuel and coolant salts including eutectic LiF-NaF-KF (FLiNaK) have been measured. These properties are suitable for use in evaluating reactor performance during startup and early operating conditions.

In situ Characterization of Soot Aggregates Produced by Burning Contaminated Liquid Fuels with Nuclear Waste Surrogate

The motivation of this work was to complement other studies intended to enhance and update DOE-HDBK-3010-94 for hazard scenarios like nuclear waste fires. In this work, a uniquely designed combustion chamber was successfully integrated with a light scattering technique to characterize soot aggregates. The chamber design allowed for soot investigation within the flame as well as after soot left the incandescent flame region.
