Sodium technology. Progress report, July-September 1980

This report presents a quarterly summary of progress made in the areas of radioactivity control technology and sodium systems technology. Accomplishments during this period include: radionuclide trap operation in EBR-2; a 8000-h test of radionuclide deposition into 304 and 316 ss; radioactivity surveillance in FFTF HTS; inspection of deposition sampler from EBR-2; sodium frost tests; cold trap testing; effects of mesh packing on natural convection in cold trap crystallizer; and fuel failure monitoring in FFTF and EBR-2.
