A Correlation for Boiling Heat Transfer to Saturated Fluids in Convective Flow

Description: An additive mechanism of micro- and macro-convective heat transfer was formulated to represent boiling heat transfer with net vapor generation to saturated, non-metallic fluids in convective flow. The final equations are [equations not transcribed]. The second equation will be recognized as the Dittus-Boelter equation with the additional factor F. The two functions F and S are defined as [equations not transcribed] where Re is the effective Reynolds number for the two-phase fluid and ΔTe is the… more

Determination of the Single Interstitial Migration Energy From Stored Energy and Thermal Resistivity Changes in Irradiated Graphite

Description: The model used to evaluate the single interstitial migration energy from property changes due to interstitials is extended to account for vacancy contributions. The annealing function obtained can be used to determine the relative contributions of the defects and is sufficiently sensitive to distinguish vacancy effects that are an order of magnitude less than interstitial effects. Application of the model to stored energy and thermal resistivity data yields the same values of the activation ene… more

Fundamentals of Vacuum Technology

Description: Vacuum technology is germaine to and is utilized in an extroardinarily widespread scope of the scientific disciplines. From the medical technician freeze drying hog cholera vaccine to the solid state physicist studying thin film phenomena, vacuum technology is an important auxiliary. When one visits the NASA center at Langley and sees the clustered space environmental chambers, looking like a field of grotesque mushrooms, one realizes that vacuum technology is a vital adjunct in this most recen… more

Magnetic Measurement of AGS Experimental Magnets

Description: This is a preliminary report on the magnetic measurements taken to date on the AGS experimental magnets. It mainly summarizes the results which were necessary for the setting up of the proton separated beam in August 1961. A few curves on information obtained since then are included. When the study is finished, a complete report on all phases of the work, including the methods used, will be forthcoming.

A Note Concerning the "100% Value" in Iron Absorption Studies by Whole Body Counting

Description: The evaluation of iron absorption using a single crystal whole-body counter is complicated by the inherent difficulty of determining a correct "100% value". Shortly after ingestion, tracer radioiron can be found in the stomach, upper small intestine, portal circulation and liver. Fourteen to twenty days later, the time at which absorption is measured most effectively, the radioiron will be distributed between the red cell mass, liver, spleen, bone marrow and other storage areas. With this mixed… more

On the Structure of Sperm Whale Myoglobin. [Part] 1, The Amino Acid Composition and Terminal Groups of the Chromatographically Purified Protein

Description: The report objective is to establish the amino acid composition of sperm whale myoglobin. From Summary: "The homoprotein that comprises 96% by weight of the protein present in crystalline sperm whale myoglobin may be received into at least five components by chromatography on the carboxylic resin IRC-50."

Pilot Plant Fluorination of Uranium Fuel Elements by Bromine Trifluoride

Description: The so-called Fluoride Volatility Processes refer to several proposed non-aqueous methods of processing irradiated fuel elements. In each of these methods, the uranium is fluorinated to uranium hexafluoride and then decontaminated by distillation. One of the methods, involving direct fluorination of the uranium by bromine trifluoride, has been under investigation at BNL since 1950; subsequently a pilot plant was built to study this step of the process. The objectives of the program were to inve… more

Pilot Plant Fluorination of Uranium Fuel Elements by Bromine Trifluoride

Description: Report issued by the Brookhaven National Laboratory discussing methods of processing reactor fuels such as uranium. As stated in the objective, "the primary objective of the project was to determine the effect of temperature, solution composition, and flow rate on the dissolving time for natural uranium slugs of varying history" (p. 2). This report includes tables, illustrations, and photographs.

Polymerization in Solid Solutions of Acrylamide in Propionamide

Description: It has previously been shown that the polymer formed in solid state polymerization of acrylamide is amorphous in spite of the fact that the reaction takes place within a crystalline solid. The stage at which it becomes amorphous is not known at present. Work with dilute solid solutions of acrylamide in propionamide suggests that this occurs after the addition of, at most, a very few monomer units.

Synergistic Effect of Tri-N-Octylamine on the Solvent Extraction of Thorium by Thenolytricluoroacetone

Description: This technical report seeks to ascertain which amine species cause the synergistic effect exerted by tri-n-octylamine (TNOA) on the solvent extraction of thorium by TTA, the nature of the species formed, and the values of the equilibrium constants involved. This report also includes 2 figures and 2 tables to accompany the findings.
