Electrostatic Classification of Submicron Airborne Particles : Progress Report, August 1 to October 1, 1962

Description: Introduction: "This study is concerned with the classification of submicron aerosols by electrostatic means. The controlled charging of the particles without undue aerosol losses is of principal interest. We are investigating means of eliminating the interference due to the deposition of small and large particles in the same area. The sampler is to be developed to classify atmospheric dust particles at a rate approaching 1 cfm. During the period covered by this report, work was concerned with t… more

Development and Evaluation of High-Temperature Tungsten Alloys : Summary Report

Description: Abstract: "Tungsten-rich alloys, developed for use at temperatures up to 2000F, exhibit ductility, fabricability and joinability not found in commercially-available materials. An envelope type of microstructure was produced in compositions containing at least 90 wt% tungsten by liquid-phase sintering of cold-pressed powders in hydrogen. At room temperature the alloys could be rolled extensively, and tensile elongations up to 25% were noted. Strength properties of a W-Ni-Fe base were improved by… more

Niobium Phase Diagrams : Manuscript Report on Niobium-Oxygen System

Description: Abstract: "The niobium-oxygen equilibrium has been determined by metallographic examination of arc-cast alloys made of electron-gun-refined niobium metal and special purity niobium pentoxide. Two intermediate oxides, NbO and NbO2, melt without decomposition at 1945 C and 1915 C, respectively. Eutectic reactions exist between niobium and NbO and 1915 C and between NbO and NbO2 at 1810 C. Experimental supports a peritectic reaction between NbO2 and Nb2O5 1510 C. The maximum solid solubility of ox… more

Delayed Failure Hydrogen Embrittlement of Zirconium: Quarterly Report Number 1, September - December 1961

Description: Abstract: "The purpose of this investigation is to determine the extent to which zirconium exhibits delayed failure (static fatigue) as caused by a combination of absorbed hydrogen and applied stress. Both notched and unnotched specimens of unalloyed zirconium and Zircaloy-2 are being initially hydrogenated to 200 ppm by means of a modified Sieverts apparatus, and delayed failure studies are proceeding at room-temperature. Thus far only preliminary data on unnotched, unalloyed zirconium are ava… more

Electrostatic Classification of Submicron Airborne Particles : Final Report, August 16, 1961 to January 31, 1963

Description: From abstract: "This project was a study of electrostatic classification of submicron aerosols. Classification of particles as small as 0.006-[mu]-diameter was shown to be feasible, and good classification of atmospheric dust was achieved. However, a practical solution to the problem of overlapping between particles larger and smaller than 0.1 [mu], the point of minimum electric mobility, was not found."

Electrostatic Classification of Submicron Airborne Particles Progress Report: October-December 1960

Description: From introduction: "This study is concerned with the basic variables that affect the electrostatic classification of heterogeneous aerosols in the submicron range, especially below 0.1 micron. The variables of interest are particle size, concentration, composition, dielectric constant, shape, and initial charge as they relate to rate of charging and therefore to the point of deposition in the classifier."

Description: Abstract: "The objectives of this program are the development of zirconium-base alloys possessing exceptionally good corrosion resistance to 680 F water or 750-900 F system and/or improved strength at elevated temperatures. Approximately 100 binary compositions were prepared and screened by corrosion testing in 680 F water; selected compositions were exposed to 750 F steam. The data obtained indicate promising bases for ternary and quaternary alloys. Related investigations involving zirconium p… more
