Seismic and layout design for a tank-type fast reactor

Description: Hitachi Ltd. of Japan, with the assistance of the Bechtel Group, Inc. and the General Electric Company of the US, initiated a conceptual design study of a compact tank-type LMFBR. The Bechtel work concentrated on layout of the nuclear island (NI), and its orientation with respect to the Control (CB) and Turbine (TGB) Buildings. This joint effort was carried out during 1982 and 1983 in four steps. Each step produced improvements in the design and reduced the plant size and cost. This paper descr… more

Tracer test analysis of the Klamath Falls geothermal resource: a comparison of models

Description: Two tracer tests on doublet systems in a fractured geothermal system were carried out in Klamath Falls, Oregon. The purpose of the tests were to obtain data which would lead to information about the reservoir and to test the applicability of current tracer flow models. The results show rapid breakthrough times and indicate fracture flow with vigorous mixing of injector fluid before production of same. This leads to the idea that thermal breakthrough is not directly related to tracer breakthroug… more

Characterization of retention processes and their effect on the analysis of tracer tests in fractured reservoirs

Description: Retention processes such as adsorption and diffusion into an immobile region can effect tracer movement through a fractured reservoir. This study has conducted experimental work and has developed a two-dimensional model to characterize retention processes. A method to directly determine some important flow parameters, such as the fracture aperture, from the analysis of tracer tests has been developed as a result of the new two-dimensional model. The experimental work consisted of batch experime… more

Depletion modeling of liquid dominated geothermal reservoirs

Description: Depletion models for liquid-dominated geothermal reservoirs are derived and presented. The depletion models are divided into two categories: confined and unconfined. For both cases depletion models with no recharge (or influx), and depletion models including recharge, are used to match field data from the Svartsengi high temperature geothermal field in Iceland. The influx models included with the mass and energy balances are adopted from the petroleum engineering literature. The match to produc… more

Beam injection in the TMX-U central cell

Description: Results pertaining to the recently modified beam-injection arrangement in the central cell of TMX-U are presented here. These modifications followed our observation that beam atoms injected perpendicular to the magnetic axis between the first two magnet-coil gaps give rise to trapped ions with midplane pitch angles lying in the intervals 68/sup 0/ < theta < 78/sup 0/ and 59/sup 0/ < theta < 65/sup 0/. These pitch-angle intervals are similar in value to the earlier arrangement of beams injected … more

Laser program annual report 1983

Description: In the 1983 Laser Program Annual Report we present the accomplishments and unclassified activities of the Laser Program at Lawrence Livermore National laboratory (LLNL) for the year 1983. It should be noted that the report, of necessity, is a summary, and more detailed expositions of the research can be found in the many publications and reports authored by staff members in the Laser Program. The purpose of this report is to present our work in a brief form, but with sufficient depth to provide… more

Use of the ORACLE DBMS in determining the response of complex scientific instrumentation

Description: In the Laser Fusion Program at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, a single laser fusion experiment lasts only a billionth of a second but in this time high speed instrumentation collects data that when digitized will create a data bank of several megabytes. This first level of data must be processed in several stages to put it in a form useful for interpretation of the experiments. One stage involves unfolding the source characteristics from the data and response of the instrument. This in… more

Effect of magnet error on slow extraction

Description: We calculate analytically the expected tune shifts due to systematic sextupole and decapole errors in the SSC dipoles of reference design A at an energy of 20 TeV. The momentum-dependent tune shift due to sextupole error is d nu/sub x/ = -0.0557 for ..delta..p/p = +-2 x 10/sup -5/. The random sextupole component in the SSC dipoles ..delta..b/sub 2/ should be less than 5 x 10/sup -4/.

Survey of initial experiments on ATA beam dynamics

Description: The Advanced Test Accelerator (ATA) is a linear induction electron accelerator whose design parameters are 50 MeV, 10 kA and 70 ns pulse duration. The key physics issues affecting performance of the accelerator involve beam dynamics during transport through the accelerator structure. In this report, we present experimental results describing the initial operating phases of ATA. These results illustrate the complexity of the beam transport phenomena but also indicate the means to stabilize beam … more

Linear boundary detection using pressure buildup tests

Description: Linear boundary detection has received considerable attention in the past. Although linear boundaries are frequently suspected and observed in well tests, conventional interpretation methods rely upon the development of two straight lines, which may not occur in practice. This report introduces two new semilog type curve matching methods for finding the distance to linear boundaries using buildup tests. Idealized curves are plotted from analytical solutions generated using the image well concep… more
