Performance of Pentaborane, Pentaborane - JP-4 Fuel Mixtures, and Trimethylborate Azeotrope Fuel in a Full-scale Turbojet Engine

Description: Report presenting summaries of full-scale engine tests of pentaborane, pentaborane-JP-4 fuel mixtures, and trimethylborate-methyl-alcohol-azeotrope fuels. Tests were conducted at an altitude of 50,000 feet and Mach number of 0.8. Results regarding the fuel effects on overall performance, effects on component performance, effect of turbine-outlet temperature on engine performance, and miscellaneous observations are provided.

Spatial Burnout in Water Reactors with Nonuniform Startup Distributions of Uranium and Boron

Description: "Spatial burnout calculations have been made of two types of water moderated cylindrical reactor using boron as a burnable poison to increase reactor life. Specific reactors studied were a version of the Submarine Advanced Reactor (sAR) and a supercritical water reactor (SCW). Burnout characteristics such as reactivity excursion, neutron-flux and heat-generation distributions, and uranium and boron distributions have been determined for core lives corresponding to a burnup of approximately 7 ki… more
