Gamma Heating in PRTR Gas Loop

Description: It is being considered that the in-reactor portion of the test section of the PRTR Gas-Cooled Loop Facility consist, in part, of two concentric Inconel-X tubes. The outer tube is the main stress member, with 3.5 O.D. and a wall thickness of 0.065. The inner tube is 3.0 O.D. and has a wall thickness of 0.030. The inner tube provides an annular gas space to serve as thermal insulation.

Decay Modes Of Charged [Sigma] Hyperons

Description: Apparent [Sigma] hyperon decay events in a large emulsion stack of 240 9" x 12" pellicles have been classified into those judged to have occurred at rest and those in flight. Of 36 decay events at rest, 21 secondaries were observed to be protons of about 1675 microns range. Of the events decaying in flight, 23 were decays into protons and 46 were decays into near-minimum secondaries. Attempts have been made to trace the tracks of 35 of the lightly ionizing secondaries; the results of this effor… more

Possible Process Alternatives for Converting Recovered Uranyl Nitrate to Uranium Hexafluoride

Description: The uranium recovery processes which are in operation or under construction at the present time--TBP, Redox and Purex--yield an aqueous uranyl nitrate solution as the recovered uranium product. For conversion of this recovered uranium to UF6 for feed to the gaseous diffusion plants, the uranyl nitrate in the solution is concentrated with or without prior organic stripping, calcined to UC3, reduced to UO2 with hydrogen, hydro-fluorinated to UF4 with RF, and finally fluorinated to UF6 with eleme… more

Stemming options and their effect on containment

Description: In more than 17 years of studying underground nuclear explosions, LLL has developed containment procedures that include a stemming plan. Stemming plans can be divided into either layered or continuous forms. There are marked differences between standards for these forms. The materials used in the continuous plan must meet more stringent specifications; as a consequence, they are more expensive. Both plans have been successful since the Baneberry Event. Both plans must meet the following require… more

Calorimeter based detectors for high energy hadron colliders

Description: The work was directed in two complementary directions, the D0 experiment at Fermilab, and the GEM detector for the SSC. Efforts have been towards the data taking and analysis with the newly commissioned D0 detector at Fermilab in the [bar p]p Collider run that started in May 1992 and ended on June 1, 1993. We involved running and calibration of the calorimeter and tracking chambers, the second level trigger development, and various parts of the data analysis, as well as studies for the D0 upgra… more

Mass spectrometric analytical services and research activities to support coal-liquid characterization research. Quarterly report, March 9, 1976--June 8, 1976

Description: Medium- and low-resolution field-ionization and high-resolution 70-eV electron-impact mass spectral data were obtained for thirty-eight gel permeation chromatographic (GPC) fractions obtained from a coal-derived liquid. Empirical formulas were deduced from the high-resolution electron-impact data. The field-ionization data were acquired for eventual calculation of quantitative distributions for the coal-derived liquid. The field-ionization mass-spectral data obtained for the GPC fractions from … more

Chemical stimulation of geothermal injection wells

Description: Various types of chemical stimulation methods have been considered. High pH fluids seem to be a logical choice for some wellbore and/or reservoir stimulations. However, forming of secondary deposits and creating of new reservoir damages due to chemical reactions between the rock material and these stimulation fluids make it advisable not to consider any of these high pH fluids in high temperature geothermal reservoirs. Fluids having a neutral pH can be successfully used in chemical stimulation … more

KE Basin Sludge Flocculant Testing

Description: In the revised path forward and schedule for the K Basins Sludge Retrieval and Disposal Project, the sludge in K East (KE) Basin will be moved from the floor and pits and transferred to large, free-standing containers located in the pits (so as to isolate the sludge from the basin). When the sludge is pumped into the containers, it must settle fast enough and clarify sufficiently that the overflow water returned to the basin pool will not cloud the water or significantly increase the radiologic… more

OPERATION OF SECOND-GENERATION HCX DIAGNOSTICS FOR ELECTRON AND GAS EFFECTS IN MAGNETIC QUADRUPOLE MAGNETS

Description: We report the successful development and commissioning of new diagnostics for electron cloud and gas desorption studies on the High Current Experiment (HCX) at LBNL. These measure the time-dependent gas density in a 0.03 - 0.2 A 1 MeV K{sup +} ion beam inside of a quadrupole magnet, and the three possible sources of electrons: from ionization of gas, from beam tube walls, and from an end wall where the beam dumps. The accumulation of electrons in the beam is determined by measuring the net char… more

Summary report on salt dissolution review meeting, March 29--30, 1977

Description: It is the unanimous conclusion of the Ad Hoc Committee that radioactive waste can be stored in salt and underground repository sites sufficiently removed from natural and/or man-made dissolution areas so that the waste will not be liberated during its hazardous period at projected rates of future salt dissolution. To ensure long-term isolation of radioactive waste in salt formations, specific recommendations are given for needed research concerning (A) General Principles, (B) Basinal or Regiona… more

Long-term allocation of power from the Eklutna Project. Environmental Assessment

Description: The Alaska Power Administration (APA) has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) (DOE/EA-0862) evaluating the Marketing Plan for the Eklutna Project that establishes long-term allocation and sales of power. The proposed long-term sales contract will replace long-term agreements that expire at the end of December, 1993. The EA evaluates the proposed alternative and the no action alternative. The proposed alternative replaces the expiring contracts with new 20-year contracts with the same term… more

Audit of health benefit costs at the Department`s Management and Operating Contractors

Description: The audit disclosed that the Department and certain of its contractors had initiated several positive actions to contain health benefit costs: improving data collection, increasing training, reviewing changes to health plans, improving the language in one contract, increasing the employees, share of health costs at one contractor, and initiating self-insurance at another contractor. Despite these actions, further improvements are needed in the administration of the contractor employee health be… more

Biomass energy: State of the technology present obstacles and future potential

Description: The prevailing image of wood and waste burning as dirty and environmentally harmful is no longer valid. The use of biomass combustion for energy can solve many of our nation`s problems. Wood and other biomass residues that are now causing expensive disposal problems can be burned as cleanly and efficiently as natural gas, and at a fraction of the cost. New breakthroughs in integrated waste-to-energy systems, from fuel handling, combustion technology and control systems to heat transfer and powe… more

Modeling results for a linear simulator of a divertor

Description: A divertor simulator, IDEAL, has been proposed by S. Cohen to study the difficult power-handling requirements of the tokamak program in general and the ITER program in particular. Projections of the power density in the ITER divertor reach {approximately} 1 Gw/m{sup 2} along the magnetic fieldlines and > 10 MW/m{sup 2} on a surface inclined at a shallow angle to the fieldlines. These power densities are substantially greater than can be handled reliably on the surface, so new techniques are req… more
