Design And Evaluation Of Processes For Fuel Fabrication: Quarterly Progress Report #10, Georg F. Mauer
Design And Evaluation Of Processes For Fuel Fabrication: Quarterly Progress Report #10, Georg F. Mauer
Fuels Campaign (TRP)
The tenth quarter of the project covered the following:
• Mr. Richard Silva continued the development of a simulation model with a Waelischmiller hot cell robot, and is close to completing his M.Sc. thesis project. Rich will likely defend his thesis in April 2004.
• A project review meeting with Dr. Mitch Meyer and other ANL scientists was held in December 2003 at ANL West, Idaho Falls, ID. Dr. Meyer described ANL long term research objectives with regard to transmuter fuel manufacturing.
• Further refinements on Concepts and Methods for Vision-Based Hot Cell Supervision and control, focusing on rule-based object …

• Project Objective: examine autonomous robotic fuel fabrication processes with regard to hot cell and equipment design, operations, and costs.
• Fabrication processes for different fuel types differ in terms of equipment types, throughput, and cost.
• Design options are restricted by the requirement to employ only radiation-hardened machinery and components
• Benefit to Department of Energy: decision support for the selection of the most suitable manufacturing process.
