Summary
Safe geometrical, mass, and concentration limits are presented, together with the criticality control methods currently in use at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant. Basic information presented includes technical background, experimental data, and the best values inferred from experiments. Various tables and graphs are included. Design criteria include basic assumptions, fundamentals, concepts, applicable methods, and maintenance of safe geometry. Operating criteria include the operating philosophy at the Goodyear Atomic Corporation Gaseous Diffusion Plant and applied operating techniques. The appendices contain graphs, figures, a chart showing Goodyear organization for nuclear safety, a glossary, tables of critical values, methods for calculating solid angles, and the bases for safe handling of high-uranium-density compounds and uranium metal in various forms.
