Book Description
Vapor pressures and vapor compositions in equilibrium with a hypostoichiometric uranium-plutonium dioxide condensed phase (U/sub 1-y/Pu/sub y/)O/sub 2-x/, as functions of T, x, and y, have been calculated for 0.0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.1, 0.0 less than or equal to y less than or equal to 0.3, and for the temperature range 2500 less than or equal to T less than or equal to 6000 K. The range of compositions and temperatures was limited to the region of interest to reactor safety analysis. Thermodynamic functions for the condensed phase and for each of the gaseous species were combined with an oxygen potential model to obtain partial pressures of O, O2, Pu, PuO, PuO2, U, UO, UO2, and UO3 as functions of T, x, and y.

Book Description
Thermodynamic functions of the gaseous species, thermodynamic functions of the condensed phase, and an oxygen-potential model have been combined to calculate the vapor pressures and vapor compositions in equilibrium with condensed-phase UO/sub 2-x/ for 1500 less than or equal to T less than or equal to 6000 K and 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.5. A method for extending the oxygen-potential model of Blackburn to the liquid region has been derived and evaluated. New thermodynamic functions of the UO2 condensed phase have been derived from the best available data, including the heat capacity recommended by Fink.

Book Description
Vapor pressures and vapor compositions have been calculated for 1500 less than or equal to T less than or equal to 4000°K. Thermodynamic functions for the condensed phase and for each of the gaseous species were combined with an oxygen-potential model extended into the liquid region to obtain the partial pressures of O2, O, Pu, PuO and PuO2. The calculated oxygen pressures increase very rapidly as stoichiometry is approached. At least part of this increase is a consequence of the exclusion of Pu/sup 6 +/ from the oxygen-potential model. No reliable method was found to estimate the importance of this ion. As a result of large oxygen potentials at high temperatures, extremely high total pressures that produced unreasonably high vapor densities were calculated. The highest temperature was therefore limited to 400 K, and the range of oxygen-to-metal ratios was limited to 1.994 to 1.70. These calculations show that vapor in equilibrium with hypostoichiometric plutonium dioxide is poorly approximated as PuO2 for most of the temperture and composition range of interest. The vapor is much more oxygen-rich than the condensed phase. Implications for the (U, Pu)O/sub 2-x/ system are discussed. (DLC).

The Vapor Pressure of Uranium Hexafluoride
Author: R. H. Crist
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Uranium compounds
Languages : en
Pages : 10
Book Description
The vapor pressure of uranium hexafluoride, has been determined from 0 deg C to 85 deg C in a copper apparatus. The data obtained are given by the two equations log 10 P mm Hg = 2623.3/T + 10.8407 (solid, vapor), log 10 P mm Hg = -1505.9/T + 7.5223 (liquid, vapor) and the latent heats are: delta H sub sub = 12.00 kg-cal, delta H sub vap = 6.89 kg-cal. The experimental arrangement is shown in Figure 1. This consists of a reservoir A in a thermostat and a brass sylphon bellows for the measurement of pressure by a null method. The pressure above an atmosphere was read on a multiple mercury manometer using dibutylphthalate as a piston liquid. p2.
