RADIOISOTOPE TECHNIQUES FOR CHEMICAL, PHYSICAL, AND INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

Description: A laboratory manual is given consisting of 14 experiments designed to teach some of the basic fundamentals of the application of radioisotopes, and to introduce the principles of radioisotope technology. The majority of the experiments, while designed to be practical, are planned for scientists having little background in radiochemical and radioisotopc technology, and the remainder are outlined for more advanced personnel. The experiments include isotope production, sample preparation and half … more

Process Development Quarterly Progress Report, April-June 1961

Description: Infrared absorption data and their correlation with laboratory reactivity studies of various types of uranium UO/sub 3/ are presented. For certain materials, increased absorption at 11.5 microns can be correlated with increased reactivity of the UO/sub 2/ produced. A mathematical study of the sedimentation method for particle size analysis indicates that no correction is necessary for the length of the plummet. The fine precipitate formed in dingot uranium contalning small alloying additions of… more

The Performance of a Motor, a Switch, and Two Types of Pressure Pickup in a High-Gamma-Flux Environment

Description: To determine the effects of gamma radiation upon transducers, switches, and motors, two test assemblies were irradiated in the ANL Gamma Irradiation Facility at levels of 1.50 x 10/sup 5/to 2.10 x 10/sup 6/ rad/hr to a total dose of 1.0 x 10/sup 9/ rad. The components tested were a motor, a straingage pressure pickup, a quartz pressure pickup, and a high-temperature switch. The performances of the straingage pickup and snap switch were highly satisfactory over the test period. The quartz pickup… more

FEASIBILITY STUDY OF A NEW MASS FLOW SYSTEM. Quarterly Report No. 3 covering Period December 1, 1960 to February 28, 1961

Description: A mass flow measurement technique was devised which meets many requirements for mass flow measurement systems. In this technique. fluid is made to pass through a pivoted S-shaped tube. which tends to rotate due to the angular momentum of the fluid. A torque motor and torsion spring maintain zero displacement. the restoring force being a measure of the angular momentum, and density is measured by absorption of radiation passing through a window in the S tube. From the measured angular momentum a… more

Development of High-Temperature Strain Gages

Description: From Introduction: "An improved high-temperature gage was needed, and in an attempt to fill this need an investigation was initiated in February 1954 in the Enameled Metals Laboratory at the National Bureau of Standards. The present Monograph constitutes a final summary on this program."

A Sensitive Differential Pressure System For Measuring Cryogenic Liquid Depths

Description: A system for measuring depths of cryogenic liquids is described. The indicating device is a modified differential pressure gage. The level sensing probes are of various types, either permanent or removable. The heat leak to cryogenic liquids may be made negligibly small.
