Final report for {open_quotes}Production of mild gasification co-products{close_quotes} project

Description: The SGI International Liquids From Coal (LFC) Process is a mild pyrolysis, or mild gasification, treatment that upgrades low-rank coals by removing almost all of the moisture and a substantial portion of the volatile matter. The process produces two value-added co-products: a Coal Derived Liquid (CDL) and a solid Process Derived Fuel (PDF). A third co-product, a low-heating-value non-condensible gas, is recirculated and combusted in a commercial sized plant to provide drying and pyrolysis proce… more

X-ray and neutron reflectivity

Description: The intensity of X-rays and neutrons reflected from an interface at near-grazing incidence depends sensitively on the refractive index profile normal to the interface. As the refractive index depends on the density, the measured reflectivity vs. incidence angle can be used to determine the Interfacial density profile with sub {angstrom} resolution. The density sampled is, however, different for the two probes. As neutrons interact with the atomic nuclei, they probe the scattering amplitude dens… more

Locked modes in TEXT-U tokamak

Description: Locked mode coils for detecting radial magnetic field perturbations B{sub r} were recently constructed and installed on the TEXT-U tokamak. The measured experimental signals showed that both minor and major disruptive instabilities were almost always preceded by a growth in B{sub r}. For some plasma discharges with long duration precursors, a mode lock occurs before the disruption takes place. However, detailed investigation showed that the modes were still rotating in the toroidal direction bu… more

The effect of elevation data representation on nocturnal drainage wind simulations. Revision 1

Description: A critical requirement for accurately representing surface-atmosphere interactions within an atmospheric model is to realistically characterize the land surface. Data must be extracted from a geographical database and transformed so that it is consistent with the needs of the numerical model. In such a process, there are two major classes of error that must be understood and minimized whenever possible. The first class involves the accuracy, precision, and resolution of the geographical data it… more

Ground-motion variability resulting from the January 17, 1994, M = 6.6 Northridge earthquake at the interchange between highways 14 and I-5 in the northern San Fernando Valley

Description: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory responded to the 17 January 1994, Northridge earthquake by sending an information gathering team to observe and study the collapse of the interchange between highways 14 and I-5 in the northern San Fernando Valley. This field team examined the structural failure at the interchange and the surface soil conditions, and they installed high-grain RefTek seismic recorders to record aftershocks. We recorded aftershocks for two weeks. Analyses of aftershock recor… more

Gas liquid sampling for closed canisters in KW Basin: Test plan

Description: Characterization of the Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) sealed in canisters at KW-Basin is needed to determine the state of storing SNF wet. Samples of the liquid and the gas in the closed canisters will be taken to gain characterization information. Sampling equipment has been designed to retrieve gas and liquid from the closed canisters in KW Basin. This plan is written to outline the test requirements for this developmental sampling equipment.

Crystalline beams: The vertical zigzag

Description: This note is the continuation of our comprehensive investigation of Crystalline Beams. After having determined the equations of motion and the conditions for the formation of the simplest configuration, i.e. the string, we study the possibility of storing an intense beam of charged particles in a storage ring where they form a vertical zigzag. We define the equilibrium configuration, and examine the confinement conditions. Subsequently, we derive the transfer matrix for motion through various e… more

Canyon transfer neutron absorber to fissile material ratio analysis. Revision 1

Description: Waste tank fissile material and non-fissile material estimates are used to evaluate criticality safety for the existing sludge inventory and batches of sludge sent to Extended Sludge Processing (ESP). This report documents the weight ratios of several non-fissile waste constituents to fissile waste constituents from canyon reprocessing waste streams. Weight ratios of Fe, Mn, Al, Mi, and U-238 to fissile material are calculated from monthly loss estimates from the F and H Canyon Low Heat Waste (… more

The effect of azimuthal inert material on the CMS hadron calorimeter

Description: The baseline design for the CMS hadronic calorimeter (HCAL) calls for barrel wedges subtending an azimuthal range of 1/18 of 2 {pi}. These wedges will each have about 1 cm of inert material which is required to make a self supporting structure. Therefore, it is expected that there will be about 2 cm of inert material between active elements in the CMS calorimeter. Since the inner radius of the HCAL modules is at 1.95 m, there is about 3% of the azimuth which is inert and possibly projective. Pr… more

Visually guided control systems: A new generation of system analysis and design

Description: The main emphasis of the proposal had been to study control systems for which the observation function is perspective. Since a CCD camera observes points upto a perspective projection, it is hoped that these dynamical systems would be useful in the study of visually guided control systems: systems for which the feedback control is to be generated with the aid of a CCD camera. We basically divided our task into three distinct subproblems. (1) To define a perspective dynamical system and study pr… more

Chemical compatibility of tank wastes in tanks 241-C-106, 241-AY-101, and 241-AY-102. Revision 1

Description: This report documents the chemical compatibility of waste types within tanks 241-C-106, 241-AY-101, and 241-AY-102. This information was compiled to facilitate the transfer of tank 241-C-106 waste to tank 241-AY-102 utilizing supernatant from tank 241-AY-101 as the sluicing medium. This document justifies that no chemical compatibility safety issues currently understood, or theorized from thermodynamic modeling, will result from the intended sluice transfer operation.

Novel catalysts for methane activation. Quarterly report No. 5, October 1, 1993--December 31, 1993

Description: The objectives of this project are to test novel fullerene based catalysts for application in methane activation. During this period we investigated a novel method of activating carbon soot which was recently reported in literature. In this method, the soot is treated with carbon dioxide at temperatures of 850{degrees}C to give a microporous carbon with a high surface area. We repeated this activation step and found that the BET surface areas increased from approximately 125 m{sup 2}/g to over … more
