Machining was completed on the s-tube flow element, and a spring, for use at a constant known temperature, was constructed for the flow element. Calculations for geometry factor, detector efficiency, and effective absorption along the useful radiation path were completed for the reed densitometer. The flow rate control was calibrated and performed satisfactorily. Response to step transient changes occurred with a damping constant of about 0.6 and an effective response time of 10 sec. Sources of error in the s-tube flow rate measurements are discussed. (M.C.G.)
