Development of ultrafiltration and inorganic adsorbents for reducing volumes of low-level and intermediate-level liquid waste: October--December 1977

Description: The exposures of noncellulosic ultrafiltration membranes to a radioactive environment simulating up to 24 months of exposure to a ..beta.. dose of 10 ..mu..Ci/cm/sup 3/, a ..gamma.. dose of 10/sup -5/ ..mu..Ci/cm/sup 3/, and an ..cap alpha.. dose of 4.9 x 10/sup -3/ ..mu..Ci/cm/sup 3/ were completed. Exposure to ..beta.. and ..gamma.. radiation did not affect membrane performance. After a simulated six months of exposure to ..cap alpha.. radiation some degradation of membrane performance occurr… more

Building 431 fire tests

Description: An extensive discussion of considerations for fire protection in the LLL mirror fusion test facility (MFTF) is presented. Because of the large volume and high bays of the building, sufficient data on fire detection is unavailable. Results of fire detection tests using controlled fire sources in the building are presented. Extensive data concerning the behavior of the building atmosphere are included. Candidate fire detection instrumentation and extinguishing systems for use in the building are … more

Energy balance measurements for Shiva

Description: The Lawrence Livermore Laboratory Shiva laser-target interaction facility is designed for experiments at 20 to 30 terawatts. At this power level there will be larger fluxes of neutrons, x-rays, electrons and ions than have been previously measured. The measurements of energy converted into the various reaction products is crucial both in target design and performance analysis of the actual experiment. The total energy absorbed is measured by a box calorimeter surrounding the target except for b… more

Shiva optical diagnostics

Description: In the laser fusion program at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, no target experiment is complete unless it is complemented by careful measurements of the laser pulse that irradiates the target. For this purpose, an incident beam diagnostics (IBD) package has been designed for the Shiva laser. The package will furnish data on items such as the total energy and the focusable energy out of the laser chain, and the spatial and temporal energy and power distribution at the target plane. Understanding … more

Energy sensitivity and variability analysis of Populus hybrid short-rotation plantations in northeastern United States. Final report

Description: Production of biomass by corn-like plantations has been demonstrated by a number of researchers. These forest analogs of agronomic cropping systems have the potential to yield substantially more biomass per unit area than traditional forests. Care is needed in choosing the appropriate sites, species, spacing, and harvesting strategies. Opportunities for increased yields have been suggested for fertilization and irrigation. Utilization of the biomass from these dense plantations for energy was t… more

Rock equation of state: a constitutive computer model

Description: A constitutive model for a rock equation of state was developed in HEMP and CEL-HEMP computer codes. The model includes the mechanical and thermal properties of soil, such as elasticity, pore closure, compaction, and vaporization. Three test problems were computed using the equation of state: ground motion following the LATIR event, impact vaporization of preheated plates, and surface motion produced from exploding a 3.7-kg(10-lb) charge at a depth of 6.5 m. Agreement between our computations f… more

Seismic analysis of the nuclear fuel service reprocessing plant at West Valley, N. Y

Description: This report was prepared at the request of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission as a part of a license review of the nuclear fuel reprocessing plant operated by Nuclear Fuel Services, Inc., at West Valley, N.Y. The report discusses the approach used by the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory in performing an independent seismic analysis of the facility. It includes a description of the facility, our modeling and analysis techniques, failure criteria, results, and conclusions. Two modes of failure are id… more

High performance inertial fusion targets

Description: Inertial confinement fusion (ICF) designs are considered which may have very high gains (approximately 1000) and low power requirements (<100 TW) for input energies of approximately one megajoule. These include targets having very low density shells, ultra thin shells, central ignitors, magnetic insulation, and non-ablative acceleration.
