Maximum temperature of aluminum end cap

Description: Neutron density at the end of the slug is increased appreciably and therefore the heat production in the end of the slug is also increased. The end result is increased heat flow into the cap with correspondingly higher temperatures. The combined results and conclusions of documents CP-1580, CP-1989, and CP-2871 afford a means of calculating the aluminum end cap temperatures with consideration being give to the above mentioned {open_quotes}Wilkins effect,{close_quotes} i.e., that the heat produc… more

VPP--DESIGN CRITERIA FOR AN INSTALLATION TO REMOVE HYDROGEN FLUORIDE AND FLUORINE FROM THE CELLS 1 AND 2 VENTILATION GASES PRIOR TO FILTRATION

Description: Criteria are presented for a horizontal cocurrent spray nozzle scrubbing system designed to remove fluorine and hydrogen fluoride from the 3000 cfm of ventilation air passing through the Volatility Pilot Plant. A reduction of fluorine concentration from 1520 to <2 ppm during a total release of 68 lbs, and a reduction of hydrogen fluoride concentration from 4090 to <1 ppm during a total release of 200 lbs, will adequately protect the Fiberglas media filters. Six scrubbing states each containing … more

Calculated Performance of Nuclear Turbojet Powered Airplane at Flight Mach Number of 0.9

Description: "An analysis was made at flight Mach number of 0.9 to estimate performance of nuclear-energy-powered turbojet engine and optimum engine operating conditions and to determine gross weight and load-carrying capacity of airplane powered by such an engine. The size of airplane required to carry disposable load of 20,000 pounds was found to vary from approximately 300,000 to 900,000 pounds depending on assumptions. For a reactor tube-wall mean temperature of 2500 degrees R, turbine-inlet temperature… more

High-Subsonic Performance Characteristics and Boundary-Layer Investigations of a 12 10-Inch-Inlet-Diameter Conical Diffuser

Description: Performance and boundary-layer data were taken in a 12 degree 10-inch inlet-diameter conical diffuser of 2:1 exit- to inlet-area ratio. These data were taken for two inlet-boundary-layer conditions. The first condition was that of a thinner inlet boundary later (boundary-layer displacement thickness, delta* approximately equal to 0.034) produced by an inlet section approximately 1 inlet diameter in length between the entrance bell and the diffuser. The second condition was a thicker inlet bound… more

Flight measurements with the Douglas D-558-II (BuAero No. 37974) research airplane : determination of the aerodynamic center and zero-lift pitching-moment coefficient of the wing-fuselage combination by means of tail-load measurements in the Mach num

Description: Report presenting flight measurements of aerodynamic tail loads made on the Douglas D-558-II from which the variation with Mach number of the wing-fuselage aerodynamic center, static-longitudinal-stability parameter, the tail load per g, and the zero-lift wing-fuselage pitching-moment coefficient determined up to Mach number 0.87.

Altitude performance characteristics of tail-pipe burner with variable-area exhaust nozzle

Description: From Introduction: "Data are presented to show the effects of tail-pipe fuel-air ratio, altitude, and flight Mach number on tail-pipe-burner performance at rated engine speed and approximately constant turbine-outlet temperature. Operational characteristics of the tail-pipe burner and variable-area exhaust nozzle are also reported."

Analytical determination of local surface heat-transfer coefficients for cooled turbine blades from measured metal temperatures

Description: Analytical methods are presented for the determination of local values of outside and inside heat-transfer coefficients and effective gas temperatures by use of turbine-blade-temperature measurements. The methods are derived for a number of configurations that can be applied to typical cooled-turbine-blade shapes as well as to other types of heat-transfer apparatus.

Extension of boundary-layer heat-transfer theory to cooled turbine blades

Description: An equation for average heat transfer of a surface was derived when the boundary layer changed from laminar to turbulent. Influences on the heat transfer through a laminar boundary layer of Mach number, temperature ratio (gas temperature divided by wall temperature), and exponents of gas-property temperature relations were shown to be relatively small for air with Mach numbers less than 2 and temperature ratios between 1 and 4. Good agreement was obtained with experimental results from cylinder… more
