Bevatron Operation and Development, VII - August, Septemper,October 1955

Description: The major physics research effort this quarter was directed toward the detection of the antiproton. Negative particles of proton mass were first counted on September 22, 1955. On October 19, 1955 the discovery and identification of the antiproton was announced. Total cross-section measurements for {pi}{sup +} and {pi}{sup -} mesons continued. A study was made of neutron interactions and of the {gamma}-ray decay products of mesons. Proton-proton scattering was done at 2 Bev and 4 Bev using count… more

Discussion with WAPD Personnel Regarding Oxide Fuel Materials

Description: R. H. Fillnow and H. Pennington of WAPD visited HAPO on September 14-15, 1955, to discuss HAPO special irradiation facilities and review fuel element problems with HAPO personnel. During their meeting with Metallurgy Research personnel, the progress of the evaluation of UO₂ elements for the PWR and the results of recent HAPO irradiations of oxide type fuel elements were discussed. Although brief, this information exchange was particularly valuable as many of the problems associated with the app… more

Feasibility Report: Measurement of Stainless Steel Corrosion Rates by Activation Analysis

Description: Relations governing the measurement of Stainless Steel corrosion rates by activation analysis are derived and discussed. The principal neutron induced radioactivities are calculated and graphed. Shielding requirements are considered and it is concluded that six inches of lead shielding should be sufficient for the proposed experiments if the samples are allowed to cool for one day in the reactor storage basin.

FUSED SALT HEAT TRANSFER. PART II. FORCED CONVECTION HEAT TRANSFER IN CIRCULAR TUBES CONTAINING NaF-Kf-LiF EUTECTIC

Description: Heat transfer coefficients were determined for the eutectic mixture LiF- KF-NaF (Flinak) flowing in forced convection through circular tubes. Heat, electrically generated in the tube wall was transferred uniformly to the fluid during passage through small-diameter tubes of nickel, Inconel, and 316 stainless steel. The variables involved: Reynolds modulus (N/sub R//sub e/), 2300 to 9500; Prandtl modulus (N/sub P//sub r/, 1.6 to 4.0; average fluid temperatures, 980 to 1370 deg F; and heat flux, 9… more

Manufacture of Uranium-Niobium Fuel Rods for Irradiation in the Materials Testing Reactor

Description: Zircaloy-2 clad fuel rods whose fuel was U/sup 238/ -10 wt.% Nb-5 wt.% U/ /sup 235/ were fabricated for testing in the Materials Testing Reactor. The fuel was duplex melted and given a homogenizing heat treatment prior to assembly into extrusion billets. The rods were prepared by co-extruding the fuel alloy in Zircaloy-2 cups, then drawing the rods to size. (auth)

Matching of Auxiliary Inlets to Secondary-Air Requirements of Aircraft Ejector Exhaust Nozzles

Description: Report presenting an analysis of the problems associated with matching secondary-air requirements of ejector exhaust nozzles and auxiliary inlets has been made for free-stream Mach numbers up to 2.0. The analysis indicated that inlets located in the free stream supply higher pressure recovery than ejectors generally require for optimum net internal thrust at Mach numbers above about 1.4. Net-thrust gains can be achieved by immersing the auxiliary inlet in a boundary layer where the inlet-moment… more

Performance of Inconel 550 Turbine Blades in a Turbojet Engine and Effects of Different Forging Temperatures and Heat Treatments

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects of forging at 1950 degrees and 2150 degrees Fahrenheit as well as the effects of several heat treatments on the performance of Inconel 550 in a turbojet engine. Differences in engine performance of the different turbine blades could not be associated with consistent differences in microstructure or grain size. Results regarding blade performance, blade elongation during engine operation, microstructure of as-heat-treated blades, grain … more
