Development of a pilot-scale kinetic extruder feeder system and test program. Phase II. Verification testing. Final report

Description: This report describes the work done under Phase II, the verification testing of the Kinetic Extruder. The main objective of the test program was to determine failure modes and wear rates. Only minor auxiliary equipment malfunctions were encountered. Wear rates indicate useful life expectancy of from 1 to 5 years for wear-exposed components. Recommendations are made for adapting the equipment for pilot plant and commercial applications. 3 references, 20 figures, 12 tables.

Metal boride catalysts for indirect liquefaction. Quarterly technical progress report, December 1, 1983-February 29, 1984

Description: During the sixth quarter four boron-promoted cobalt catalysts were prepared by a new boriding process using diborane gas as the boriding agent. These catalysts were characterized by chemical analysis, BET, H/sub 2/ chemisorption, and x-ray diffraction. Temperature-programmed desorption spectra of H/sub 2/ were obtained for a sodium-promoted cobalt boride and a sodium-promoted Co/SiO/sub 2/. Four cobalt catalysts (unsupported, boron-promoted, sodium-promoted, and doubly-promoted) were tested for… more

Linac quadrupole connections

Description: Linac type QC and QCH quadrupoles are mounted on the accelerator with their power connection side facing the injector. The connections are on the top of the magnet. The correct polarity for magnets is shown. The magnetic centers of all magnets are measured. If the magnetic center is above the geometric center, the distance delta y is positive. If the magnetic center is to the right of the geometric center, the distance delta x is positive.

SLC nomenclature for beamline components

Description: The purpose of this report is to document the SLC nomenclature conventions for beamline components. Included are recent enhancements which should lead to a more consistant usage of the ''unit number'' part of beamline device names. The attached pages are divided into three sections. The first section is a brief summary for the general user. The second section is a more amplified description for those who need more detailed interpretations of device names. The third section contains a few notes … more

Beam loss due to the aperture limitation resulting from intrabeam scattering

Description: Diffusion equation is used to evaluate the beam loss in the presence of aperture limitation resulting from the intrabeam scattering. We discuss the effect of different boundary conditions. Satisfactory beam intensity can be maintained within the proposed RHIC operation time.

Decontamination of Battelle-Columbus' Plutonium Facility. Final report

Description: The Plutonium Laboratory, owned and operated by Battelle Memorial Institute's Columbus Division, was located in Battelle's Nuclear Sciences area near West Jefferson, Ohio, approximately 17 miles west of Columbus, Ohio. Originally built in 1960 for plutonium research and processing, the Plutonium Laboratory was enlarged in 1964 and again in 1967. With the termination of the Advanced Fuel Program in March, 1977, the decision was made to decommission the Plutonium Laboratory and to decontaminate t… more
