Impact of selected energy conservation technologies on baseline demands

This study is an application of the modeling and demand projection capability existing at Brookhaven National Laboratory to specific options in energy conservation. Baseline energy demands are modified by introducing successively three sets of conservation options. The implementation of improved building standards and the use of co-generation in industry are analyzed in detail and constitute the body of this report. Two further sets of energy demands are presented that complete the view of a lo… more

Data telecommunications at the CSCF

At Brookhaven National Laboratory data telecommunication for remote job entry, interactive time sharing, networking, graphics, and special purpose links became increasingly important--they now rival the more traditional over-the-counter traffic. The BNL Central Scientific Computing Facility (CSCF) responded to this need with a number of developments. The latest and most comprehensive of these is a ''front-end'' communications system built around MODCOMP II computers. To put this project into it… more

Monte Carlo Simulation of Turbulent Atmospheric Transport and Comparisons with Experimental Data. [/Sup 41/Ar Continuously Emitted From Bnl Reactor to Atmosphere]

In a previous paper Peterson presented measurements on the /sup 41/Ar emitted continuously into the atmosphere from a reactor at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Here, calculated results obtained with the Monte Carlo atmospheric transport model of Watson and Barr are presented and compared with the experimental data. The measured quantities with which comparisons are made are: the position north of Brookhaven where the maximum /sup 41/Ar concentration occurred for specific values of x (east … more

1979 breeding bird censuses and summary of 1977-1979 results

As part of a program to characterize the plant and animal life of the Laboratory site and the surrounding region, the two breeding bird censuses originated in 1977 were continued in 1979. Twelve census trips were made to the BNL plot and 10 to the Westhampton plot by seven volunteer observers. Comparisons of data from the three years showed that the number of territorial males on the BNL plot did not change significantly, but the number of breeding species showed a continuous decline, from 18 t… more

Brookhaven National Laboratory Tandem Facility

Our MP7 accelerator has had about 70% utilization in the past year, clocking 6000 hours, of which approximately 10% was at terminal voltages between 14.75 and 16.25 MV. This pelletron system, installed in 1977, has logged 40,000 hours, and to date has broken five chains, three in the past four months. There are still two chains that have gone the total time. The injector machine, MP6, with its three chains installed in 1980, has accumulated 18000 hours with no chain failures. About six percent … more

Accident Management to Prevent Containment Failure and Reduce Fission Product Release

Brookhaven National Laboratory, under the auspices of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission, is investigating accident management strategies which could help preserve containment integrity or minimize releases during a severe accident. The strategies considered make use of existing plant systems and equipment in innovative ways to reduce the likelihood of containment failure or to mitigate the release of fission products to the environment if failure cannot be prevented. Many of these strategies… more
