BS>Temperatures and temperature gradients from gamma heating in reactor components are treated for more complicated cases thnn are found in the literature. A summary of available solutions for conditions which may arise in designing the reactor vessel and its components is attempted. The basic stress formula for the case of an exponential heat source in slab geometry is derived, into which the appropriate temperature equation can be inserted. (T.R.H.
