100-N Decontamination Facility Design Guide.

Description: Space has been reserved near the southeast corner of the 100-N Area for the 122-N Decontamination Facility. Previous correspondence between Burns and Roe, Inc and General Electric bae discussed various facilities which might be needed in the building. The concepts of the decontamination processes are under active development by research groups at Hanford. At present, there are several workable processes known; each one has one or more fairly serious drawbacks.

190-DR steam turbine backup adequacy report

Description: Because of the questionable performance of the 190-DR steam backup system during the power outage of April 6, 1962, it is felt that a general review of the DR secondary water system capabilities and the standby status of the pumping units is warranted. This report shall briefly describe the performance of the steam backup system during the April 6 power outage and the subsequent power outage of July 10, 1962. Since the former outage, tests have been conducted on the steam pump units to determin… more

14CO2 INCORPORATION INTO THE NUCLEIC ACIDS OF SYNCHRONOUSLYGROWING CHLORELLA CELLS

Description: A study of the incorporation of {sup 14}CO{sub 2} into cell components of synchronously growing Chlorella pyrenoidosa has shown that DNA is synthesized primarily during the latter stages of the cell cycle prior to cell division. RNA was synthesized at an approximately equal rate during each of the three phases of the cell growth studied. No major differences were noted in the incorporation of {sup 14}CO{sub 2} into the soluble cell components in these long-term incorporation studies.

Answers to questions of the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards relative to the need for retention of government land

Description: This report discusses a meeting scheduled with a Subcommittee of the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards to review the future need for retention of government land on the Wahluke Slope. A number of questions were asked by the Washington AEC Division of Production as a basis for the discussions. This interim report provides answers to several of the questions.

An Automatic Lithium Drifting Apparatus for Silicon and Germanium Detectors

Description: Drifting a thick lithium-drifted counter (silicon and germanium) is a time-consuming operation that frequently results in a poor device, owing to inadequate knowledge of progress of the drifting operation. The drifting apparatus described here automatically controls the temperature of the detector that is being drifted to maintain the leakage current at a preselected value. While drifting proceeds, a continuous measurement is made of the distance of the lithium-drifted region from the opposite … more

The Boron-Carbon System: Quarterly Report Number 2, August - October 1960

Description: Abstract: A definitive investigation of the boron-carbon equilibrium system is being made by X-ray diffraction, metallographic, and thermal analytical techniques. Additional baron-carbon alloys have been prepared by sintering and arc-melting compacts prepared from boron and high-purity graphite. Metallographic examinations of these alloys are in agreement with alloys previously preapred from lampblack. X-ray investigation of sintered compacts indicates that the solubility range of boron carbide… more

Calculations on Cylindrical Metal Vacuum Chambers in Pulsed Magnetic Fields

Description: It has been suggested that metallic vacuum chambers might be suitable for pulsed magnets operating at audio frequencies, with pulse widths nominally 1/360 sec. In the present note calculations are given for a simple model of such a system, in order to estimate the effects of field attenuation and eddy current losses. The results of the calculation may be summarized briefly as follows, where the results apply to a cylindrical chamber of non-maeyletic stainless steel, 3.0 cm in inside diameter an… more

Cathode brazing control for GEXF

Description: As a result of repeated epidemic losses of brazed cathodes at GEXF, the engineering work necessary to determine the best brazing cycle and the controls necessary to insure reproducibility and high yields in the future was carried out by means of EN-297. Included are the procedures used and the tests made to verify the conclusions drawn and the recommendations made.

Chemistry Division Semiannual Report June through November1959

Description: High-energy studies of the (p, 2p) reaction in Zn{sup 68} and Fe{sup 57} are being carried out. The excitation functions for the reactions, Zn{sup 68}(p, 2p)Cu{sup 67} and Fe{sup 57} (p, 2p)Mn{sup 56} are being measured from 400 Mev to 6.2 Bev. Preliminary results are shown in Table 1. The cross sections are calculated on the basis of a 10.7-mb cross section for the Al{sup 27} (p, 3pn)Na{sup 24} reaction used to monitor the proton beam. The yield of Mn{sup 52} from proton bombardments of natura… more

Compact Control Rod Drive Study For a Boiling Water Reactor in a T7 Tanker

Description: The reason for initiating the compact drive study for the T7 tanker was to investigate control rod drive size, location, and removal space requirement factors and select the control rod drive mechanism which would allow optimization of the over-all size of the containment vessel. Approximately twelve mechanical/hydraulic control rod drive arrangements were considered during this study.

Comparison of Radiation-Induced Graft Copolymerization Untilizing Electron Accelerators and Isotope Sources as Radiation Initiators

Description: "Graft polymers were made by Co60 mutual irradiation of mixtures of styrene and methyl acrylate in contact Teflon. These graft copolymers were analyzed by infra-red absorption and their composition determined. The composition of the graft copolymer formed from styrene and methyl acrylate was different from that which is predicted by the copolymer composition equation."

Comparison of upstream and downstream river temperatures, 1964--1965

Description: Heat discharged to the Columbia River in reactor cooling water is one of the more important pollutants from Hanford operations. The effect of this heat on river temperatures has been studied for several years, primarily because of the potential effect on the Columbia River fisheries. This document presents a summary of recent river temperature experience, with comparison data for a better perspective.

CORRELATIONS BETWEEN PHOTOINDUCED EPR AND PHOTOCONDUCTIVITY INTONE-THF SOLUTION CHARGE-TRANSFER COMPLEX

Description: Reversible photoinduced electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signals and photoconductivity were observed when a solution of tetracyancethylene (TCNE) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) was irradiated in the charge-transfer band of the complex formed between these two compounds. The eleven-line hyperfine structure of the EPR spectrum which was obtained demonstrated the presence of TCNE negative ion radical. The concentration of this radical was found to be directly proportional to the square root of the … more

Critical Pressure Ratio for a Nozzle with Two-Phase Fog Flow

Description: In many cases of analysis of two-phase flow in systems, considerable computation or program time could be saved if the critical pressures ratio were known. If a reservoir or plenum pressure is fixed, the usual computational procedure involves the assumption of several critical pressures and the generation of several momentum terms to find the applicable critical pressure ratio and thereby the critical flow. The formulation of an equation of state make it possible to compute critical pressure ra… more

Determination of uniaxial mechanical properties of unirradiated and irradiated Hastelloy-N bar and biaxial stress-rupture properties of chromized and coated unirradiated Hastelloy-N

Description: Short-time tensile tests were conducted on irradiated (2 x 10/sup 20/ nvt) and unirradiated Hastelloy-N bar from heats 5911 and 6252. No significant difference in mechanical properties was noted between the two heats. The 1200/sup 0/F ultimate tensile strength was decreased by irradiation from 65 to 80 ksi and 48 to 52 ksi. The 1400/sup 0/F ultimate tensile strength was decreased from 45 to 51 ksi to 32 to 34 ksi. The yield strength was not greatly affected by irradiation at either 1200 or 1400… more
