Popis:	The ARE was operated successfully in November, l954, at various power levels up to 2.5 Mw. The maximum steady-state fuel temperature was l580 deg F, and there was a differential temperature between the inlet and outlet in the NaFn for 24l hr before the reactor first became critical and the nuclear operation extended over a period of 22l hr. The final 74 hr of operation were in the megawatt range and resulted in the production of 96-Mwhr of nuclear energyEffects of various transient conditions on reactor operation were determined. (auth)
