Effect of Large Deflection of a Canard Control and Deflections of a Wing-Tip Control on the Static-Stability and Induced-Roll Characteristics of a Cruciform Canard Missile at a Mach Number of 2.01

Description: Memorandum presenting an investigation conducted in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel at Mach number 2.01 to determine the static stability and control characteristics of a canard-type missile configuration with large deflections of the canard controls and with deflection of wing-tip controls. The results of the investigation indicated that with a 30 degree deflection of the canard control a maximum trim normal-force coefficient of 0.4 and a maximum trim angle of attack of 12 degrees … more

Comparative Study of Alternative Fibrous Glass and Sand Exhaust Ventilation Air Filter Installations for Purex

Description: Unanticipated radioactive contamination of the 200 Areas environs was discovered in the latter part of 1947, about 2.5 years after the startup of the Bismuth Phosphate Separation Plants. It was subsequently established that this contamination was due to radioactive particles emanating from the Separation Plants' stacks, and the need for exhaust ventilation air filtration equipment was recognized. Sand filters were installed in the fall of 1948 in the ventilation systems of the B and T Bismuth… more

The Identification of the Microscopic Angular Inclusions in Uranium

Description: Many procedures for the chemical isolation of the microscopic angular inclusions in rolled uranium have been investigated. Four were selected as most satisfactory for this work and will be described in detail. The procedures are: (1) the copper displacement of the uranium, (2) the electrolytic displacement of the uranium, (3) the chemical dissolution of the uranium in an anhydrous solution of hydrogen chloride in methanol, and (4) the chemical dissolution of the uranium in an aqueous solution… more
