Evaluation of Brine Desulfating Process As Applied To Desalination Phase 1

Description: Report issued by the Office of Saline Water over studies conducted on the desulfating process at desalination plants. As stated in the introduction, "the explicit purpose of this study is to determine whether or not application of the feed-water desulfating process to the feed to a desalting plant will reduce the overall cost of desalted water" (p. 1). This report includes tables, and illustrations.

Fabrication, characterization, and thermal-property measurements of ThO/sub 2/--UO/sub 2/ fuel materials (LWBR Development Program)

Description: Thermophysical-property specimens of ThO/sub 2/, ThO/sub 2/-10 wt % UO/sub 2/, and ThO/sub 2/-20 wt % UO/sub 2/ were fabricated and characterized. Each material composition was represented by specimens with nominal densities of 95, 85, and 75 percent of theoretical. Thermal-diffusivity, linear-thermal-expansion, and specific-heat measurements were made at 300 to 1900/sup 0/C and used to determine thermal conductivity. Results of linear-thermal-expansion and specific-heat measurements were appro… more

Fast Neutron Medical Research Facility-Dosimetry

Description: Dosimetry measurements and calibrations have been made at the University of Washington's Fast Neutron Medical Research Facility. The facility is designed to deliver localized neutron doses of a few rads to the testes of volunteer subjects at 2.5 MeV and 14 MeV. Dose measurements were based on the use of tissue equivalent ion chambers. Dosimetry and shielding measurements show that doses accurate to +-10% can be delivered to the volume of interest while maintaining safe dose levels outside the s… more

Mold release capability of `Teflon` films fused onto metallic molds

Description: `Teflon` film, applied as a fused coating to metal molds and gluing fixtures, can act as a release medium without adhering to an epoxy resin surface such as Hysol 13-009. This mold release capability of `Teflon` is useful when contamination of a resin surface cannot be tolerated. `Teflon` and Ram 225 (Silicone) are compared as release agents. They are about equal in terms of the force required to separate a mold from its resin casting. `Teflon` is superior in its resin casting cleanliness, but … more

Radiological conditions immediately following the September 29, 1965 PRTR incident

Description: On September 29, 1965, radioactive contamination was released to the containment vessel and several reactor systems of PRTR when approximately 700 grams of fuel material was lost from a ruptured fuel rod. The containment vessel immediately went into ventilation containment and remained in this condition for approximately 19 hours. During this period, one brief personnel entry was made to collect an air sample. A complete radiological survey of operating areas was made about six hours after rest… more

Borehole Gravity Meter Observations in Drill Hole UCe-18, Hot Creek Valley, Nye County, Nevada

Description: Abstract: "Drill hole UCe-18 was successfully logged with the U.S. Geological Survey-La Coste Romberg borehole gravity meter to a depth of 6,488 feet. That density increases with depth is apparent in both the alluvium and volcanic rock. The in situ density of the alluvium measured by the gravity meter ranges from 1.77 to 2.34 gm/cc; the lake beds beneath the alluvium have a density of 2.22 gm/cc; and the rhyolitic rocks range in density from 2.26 to 2.47 gm/cc. The average density determined fr… more

A method to simulate interchannel flow through fuel element junctions during laboratory tests on a C-Reactor fuel model

Description: Interchannel flow through fuel element junctions can occur in production reactor fuel columns as a result of different pressure loss patterns in the two coolant subchannels. This interchannel flow is most significant during boiling conditions because, generally, the boiling length in each subchannel is different. These different boiling lengths result in divergent pressure loss characteristics in the subchannels and cause differential pressures to exist across the fuel element junctions. These … more

Tensile and stress rupture tests of S8DR Hastelloy-N heats: ORNL verification tests

Description: In connection with the ORR Hastelloy-N irradiation experiments, a limited number of tensile tests and uniaxial and biaxial stress-rupture tests on S8DR Hastelloy-N heats were conducted at AI to determine the effect of some of the ORNL test conditions. The tests performed at AI were in parallel to the ORNL control tests. The results showed that the effect of the test condition variations between the two tests were generally insignificant. The effect of the test conditions is discussed.

Borehole Gravity Meter Observations in Drill Hole Test Well-B, Yucca Flat, Nevada Test Site

Description: Abstract: "Fifteen in situ interval densities were calculated from the borehole gravity meter observations made in Test Well-B. The weighted average density for all the rocks sampled by the gravity meter is 1.83 gm/cc. The alluvium density ranges from 1.71 to 1.82 gm/cc and averages 1.76 gm/cc. The lake beds range from 1.91 to 1.93 gm/cc and average 1.92 gm/cc. The Rainier Mesa Member averages 1.83 gm/cc. The Tiva Canyon Member averages 1.74 gm/cc and the upper 110 feet of Topopah Spring Member… more
