Nuclear Battery-Thermocouple Type Summary Report

Description: The potential usefulness of approximately 1300 radioactive isotopes as a heat source for the thermoelectric generator was investigated. Only 47 were found to have the proper characteristics of high specific activity and usable haif-life combined with an easily absorbable radiation. These isotopes are discussed showing possible sources of supply, the hazards involved, and the expected performance. Three large Po/sup 210/ heat sources were designed and constructed (for battery use), including one… more

Determination of Aerodynamic Drag Parameters of Small Irregular Objects by Means of Drop Tests

Description: Drag coefficients were determined for various irregular objects such as glass fragments, stones, steel fragments, and spheres by means of drop tests for use in a mathematical model to correlate nuclear explosion blast experiments. Drop tests were also made on small laboratory animals and extrapolated to estimate the drag properties of man. A method was developed to estimate the average drag properties of man from his total surface area. (D.L.C.)

Methods and Techniques of Fallout Studies Using a Particulate Simulant

Description: The fallout hazard and protection factors in current use for large groups of buildings, i.e., urban residential areas, business districts, industrial complexes, government centers, Atomic Energy Commission facilities, and academic and medical institutions, are largely unsubstantiated by experimental evidence. These data are important for personnel protection on a national basis in the event of war and on a local basis in the event of certain types of nuclear accidents. The need for such informa… more

Process optimization 709 program

Description: In the past two years a number of process optimization studies have been made with the aid of IBM machine programs. These programs have been designed to calculate optimum power levels and optimum goal exposures so that better insight could be gained for use in resolving plant operating plans. We feel that this approach has been highly successful. In January of 1960, a new program was written for the IBM 709 to incorporate the desirable features of the previous programs and to provide additional… more

EVALUATION OF THE ZEROS OF CROSS-PRODUCT BESSEL FUNCTIONS

Description: Computational results for the characteristic values and solutions of Bessel's equation are presented. Specifically, the results pertain to the first two solutions subject to the Neumann boundary condition at r = a,b and to the first solution subject to the Dirichlet condition, when (b-a)/(b+a) is small (0.1, 0.01, and 0.001). Approximate analytic formulas are derived to complement the computational results. The possible application of the data to phenomena involving the interaction of an intens… more

THE PHYSICS AND MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS FOR THE TUT-T5 MONTE CARLO CODE

Description: The TUT-T5 code for the IBM-704 estimates neutron capture probabilities in a one-energy, two-dimensional, rectangular cell model, using a Monte Carlo method. The problem and its solution are described in mathematical terms. The transport equation arising from the idealized physical model used in the code is derived and the problem is stated in terms of the solution of this equation. The validity of the Monte Carlo solution is established by proving that the random variables involved are unbiase… more

Mixing of a Cold Liquid Jet With a Boiling Liquid Stream

Description: The turbulent mixing of a cold liquid jet with a stream of vapor bubbles and saturated liquid is analyzed for a single axial liquid jet. The cases where the issuing jet velocity is very much greater than and nearly equal to the free stream velocity are considered. Transport of axial momentum and of scalar quantities in the stream are calculated and the results applied to the transport of enthalpy in a bubbly mixture. (D.L.C.)

The Calculation of Transient Temperature Distributions in a Solid Cylindrical Pin, Cooled on the Surface

Description: The IBM-704 program RE-147 is used to calculate the time and space- dependent temperature distribution in a solid cylindrical fuel pin, cooled on the surface, with internal heat generation. The fuel pin may be bare or clad, and its boundary may be cooled by either flowing or staagnat coolant. The heat generatlon source may also be time and space dependent. Specifically, the program considers the fuel pin to be composed of two regions and then solves, by the usual finite difference methods, the … more
