Commercial tritium light sources are available in a variety of sizes, shapes and colors. Different phosphor chemistries result in different colors of these lights (as can be seen in emergency exit …
A gaseous tritium light device (GTLD) is equipment containing one or more GTLS. There are many types of GTLDs in service use, including prismatic compasses, defile markers and SUSAT weapon...
ire-Fighting Measures Flammability: Tritium gas is an isotope of hydrogen; physical quantity of tritium gas in light sources and devices is insufficient to result in a significant fire hazard upon release …
PNNL uses these data, in conjunction with water movement data, to attribute tritium permeation to TPBARs (i.e., measured tritium minus non-TPBAR sources) during and after each cycle
The tritium filling procedure is shown in Figure 3. To fill tritium into the specified, coated glass containers the system has to be prepared to have good vacuum.
The experiments described here demonstrate reproducible tritium generation in a pulsed nickel-light-water electrolytic cell. Independent laboratory tests confirmed its presence in active runs but not in …
DOE has developed a technology for producing tritium in pressurized water reactors that uses lithium, rather than boron (which is normally used), as a neutron absorber. As a result of irradiation by …
