Plasma measurements with surface barrier detectors

Description: A surface barrier detector system for measuring the loss rate of protons from a hydrogen plasma and their energy spectrum is described. A full width at half maximum (FWHM) resolution of 1.4 keV for 15-keV hydrogen atoms was obtained using a selected detector having a sensitive area of 3 mm/sup 2/ and a depletion depth of 700 microns.

Bacterial Virus: Radiation and Function

Description: One of the materials most extensively studied with the dry state ionizing particle approach described in the preceding papers has been T-1 bacteriophage. It was one of the earliest materials subjected to cyclotron bombardment in the Yale biophysics group (Pollard and Forro, 1951) and a number of workers associated with the group have from time to time returned to it (Pollard and Jane Setlow, 1954). One reason is that investigation of various functional properties of a single material is relativ… more

Conceptual design and analysis of a 100-MWe line focus solar central power plant. Test plan

Description: Plans for a test program are presented whose objectives are: to verify the overall efficiency of a linear parabolic trough solar collector with varied receiver tube subsystem configurations; to compare surface temperatures, and efficiency values to derived values from an analytical model; and to identify the optimal receivr tube and annulus combination as determined by economical, optical, and thermal efficiency. The test facility to be used is described with the aid ofnumerous photographs. The… more

Developing software for energy conservation in the process industries: executive briefing report

Description: The process industries provide many opportunities where computers can be used to assist in the reduction of energy use. The areas are monitoring, analysis, control, and optimization. Since the process industries consist of a variety of combinations of specialized technology, the plants are not suitable for mass produced software which would be broadly applicable. Software development for this industry requires a careful step-by-step analysis of specific applications in close cooperation with in… more

Solar-heated commercial-greenhouse demonstration. Final performance report

Description: Poly Solar Company was formed to design and fabricate a demonstration of a solar heating system for commercial greenhouses in moderate climates. This system is built of readily available materials, and can be constructed using conventional techniques available to most builders and farmers. Construction began on the demonstration project in August 1981 and the system was placed into operation that winter. Energy savings were calculated by monitoring the running time on an oil furnace in a duplic… more

Thermal-insulation panels for mobile homes. Final program progress report

Description: The manufacture and installation of the roof panels was accomplished by the Dixie Fiberglass Products (DFP) plant which is located in Winter Garden, Florida. Panels were removed and retained by DFP at the conclusion of the test sequence. Florida Solar Energy Center conducted the test necessary to investigate the effect of a fiberglass skin and polyurethane foam insulation roof panel installation on the cooling loss of a ten-foot wide mobile home structure. Temperature and heat-flow data with a … more
