Summary
Thermal-stress and strain-fatigue analyses of the MSRE fuel and coolant pump tanks were completed for determining the quantity of coollng air required to obtain the maximum life of the pump tanks and to determine the acceptability of the pump tanks for the intended service of 100 heating cycles from room temperature to 1200 deg F and 500 reactor power-change cycles from zero to 10 Mw. A cooling-air flow rate of 200 cfm for the fuel pump tank was found to be an optimum value that provided an ample margin of safety. The coolant pump tank was found to be capable of the required service without air cooling. (auth)
