Articles are hosted by Taylor and Francis Online.
Symmetric Y-bladed shapes have been fabricated of hafnium material for use as reactor control rods. Material fabrication techniques are discussed. The fabrication of strip hafnium and strip Zircaloy by welding into suitable shapes applicable for reactor control is outlined. Photographs of fabrication techniques, test components, and equipment used are included.
