Performance characteristics modified low lift pumps 100-K Area

Description: A development program was initiated under Project CG-775 to test the proposed. process water pump modifications for Project CGI-883, Increased Process Water flow 100-K Area. Both the high lift and low lift pumps of the 190-KE pumping Unit were modified during May, 1959 for in-service prototype testing of the proposed equipment revisions. The testing proved the feasibility of the modification program but a problem, in the form of capitation damage to the high lift pump impeller, was noted. An in… more

Determination of the Six Turbulent Reynolds' Stresses by the Hot Wire Method for Arbitrary Turbulent Intensity and Geometry with Special Application to Axisymmetric Flow

Description: A relationship is derived between the mean square fluctuating current of a hot wire anemometer and the six turbulent Reynolds' stresses in the stream- coordinate system without employing the usual low turbulent intensity approximation. The relatively simple result is a consequence of assuming proportionality between the wire current reading and the perpendicular velocity component instead of the nonlinear dependence required by King's law. The assumption is valid for instruments equipped with t… more

Large-Scale Slurry-Circulation System (300-SM)

Description: Development activities on the large-scale, hightemperature, thoria slurry facility at ORNL were suspended in July 1960. The latest design philosophy, the status of component development, operational procedures, and limitations of each section of the system are presented. The design of the facility would be adequate for a singleregion slurry-reactor experiment on a slurry blanket system with a properly developed blanket flow pattern. The equipment consists of a 330-liter circulating system, incl… more
