Calibration of thin film EMP sensors by AFWL Coaxial Chamber

Description: Preliminary EMP calibration data on magnetic thin film current sensors has been obtained. The Air Force Weapon Lab's Coaxial Chamber was used as the EMP standard and a current pulse width of 40 ns was used. It was found that the sensitivity of the sensors can be increased by controlling the width of the 90/sup 0/ wall strip and that the current scales for the sensors were linear. The results strongly suggest that the dimensions of the sensors can be varied to meet different measurement requirem… more

COMPARISON OF VENTED AND ABSOLUTE PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS FOR WATER-LEVEL MONITORING IN HANFORD SITE CENTRAL PLATEAU WELLS

Description: Automated water-level data collected using vented pressure transducers deployed in Hanford Site Central Plateau wells commonly display more variability than manual tape measurements in response to barometric pressure fluctuations. To explain this difference, it was hypothesized that vented pressure transducers installed in some wells are subject to barometric pressure effects that reduce water-level measurement accuracy. Vented pressure transducers use a vent tube, which is open to the atmosphe… more

Concepts for General-Purpose Under Sodium Scanning Systems

Description: The development of the concepts for general-purpose scanning systems is discussed, based on the consideration of ultrasonics operating in liquid sodium. Technical information and data, such as ultrasonic attenuation in liquid sodium, piezoelectric materials operating in 600 F sodium, ect., are provided from theoretical and experimental studies. The report also includes explanations, analyses, and applications of the single-narrow-beam scanning systems and the electronic acoustic image conversio… more
