Neutron Radiography Facility (NRAD) 1975 – Present
NRAD is a small TRIGA reactor used as a nondestructive examination tool to produce, among other things, neutron radiographs showing the internal condition of highly irradiated test specimens. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
Thermal Reactor Idaho Test Station (THRITS) ? – 1964
THIRTS was a low-power reactor at TAN. The core was arranged in two halves of a vertical matrix. It was used to mock up reactor design concepts for thermal and fast-neutron reactor systems. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
Lost of Fluid Test Facility: 1973 - 1985. LOFT was a centerpiece in the safety testing program for commercial power reactors, built as a scale-model version of a commercial plant. During its run, 38 tests were conducted on various accident scenarios. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
Spherical Cavity Reactor Critical Experiment (SCRCE) 1972 – 1973
SCRCE was the final experiment in reactor physics work for this @NASA-sponsored program to determine the feasibility of a reactor going critical with a gaseous core of uranium. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
Power Burst Facility: 1972 – 1985
The PBF was the world's most powerful accident simulation reactor, designed to simulate accidents caused by sudden increases in the operating level of a reactor. It could perform power changes within milliseconds. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
(3) with the fuel loaded into a honeycomb lattice in each of the separated halves. Upon moving the two lattice together, ZPPR was brought to a low power, critical state by control rods. Heat removal was by air flow over the fuel elements. #70yearsofINL #52reactors
(5) In addition to materials testing, the ATR is also used to produce radioisotopes used in medicine, industry, and research. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
(4) Uranium core temperatures as high as 100,000° F were considered possible. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
(3) The ATRC is still used to verify the safety of a proposed experiment before it is placed in the ATR.

(3) The test demonstrated that the reactor would destroy itself immediately instead of building up a high inventory of radioactive fission products. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
(4) in the rest of the core. The CDC work on fuel-destructive mechanisms continued until the Power Burst Facility replaced it. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
(3) The reactor demonstrated that improved efficiency from manufactured steam is obtainable by incorporating as a design feature a number of superheated fuel assemblies in the reactor core lattice.

Together with the MTR, the reactor helped improve the performance, reliability and quality of reactor core components. At the time, ARMF-I was considered the most sensitive device for reactivity determinations in existence. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
(6) EBR-II and its support facilities also played a vital role in development of the Integral Fast Reactor concept. #70yearsofINL #52reactors
(3) conditions, and for the rigors of shipment and handling under adverse conditions.
The ML-1 shut down for the last time after operating for a total of 664 hours.

After the ANP program was discontinued in 1961, SUSIE continued in use by other programs. #52Reactors #70yearsofINL
(3) Also, heavy water tests allowed for the verification of various types of physics calculations on the effects of neutron lifetime on power excursions. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
SNAPTRAN-1, located at Test Area North, was subjected to non-destructive tests in conditions approaching but not resulting in damage to the zirconium-hydride-uranium fuel. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
Which INL reactor was restarted after being in standby mode for more than two decades? 🤔⬇️
1. Advanced Test Reactor (ATR)
2. Transient Reactor Test Facility (TREAT)

@GovNuclear
(5) TREAT was restarted in November 2017 and is currently supporting experiment programs. #52reactors #70yearsofINL
