North Carolina State College

The Los Alamos water boiler served as a prototype for the first university training reactor, started in September 1953 at North Carolina State College. The cylindrical reactor core used uranyl sulfate [1314-64-3] UO2SO4, and cooling water tubes wound inside the stainless steel container. A thick graphite reflector surrounded the core.
