EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF ULTRASONIC VIBRATIONS ON BURNOUT HEAT FLUX WITH BOILING WATER. Quarterly Technical Progress Report No. 3, April-June 1961

Description: The heat-transfer loop was completed and is in operation. Difficulty was experienced in obtaining a sufficiently strong connection between the burnout- detector voltage tap and the heating element. This problem and its potential solution are described. The lack of means of obtaining controlled burnout prevented collection of data on the burnout effects of the ultrasonic field. (auth)

Long-term Student Loans: Selected Proposals for Repayment according to "Ability to Pay".

Description: This report describes the loan proposals of Messrs. Kingman Brewster, Jr., Charles Killingsworth, Edward Shapiro, and William Vickrey and the more recent proposals of the panel on Educational Innovation. These proposals would permit a student to draw an advance at least equal to the cost of his education without imposing a financial burden on the taxpayer or the federal government.

Pathfinder Atomic Power Plant Analog Simulator.

Description: The steady-state and dynamlc characterlstics of the Pathfinder systems were simulated on a dual-console Pace Analog Computer. The derivation of the system equations, the assumptions involved, their numerical evaluation, and their conversion to analog circuitry are described. The Pathfinder system is unique because of the internal nuclear superheater, and controlled, forced recirculation. In simulating this system the following major assumptions were maden the reactor is a boiling-water type; mo… more

INVESTIGATION OF THERMAL-STRESS-FATIGUE BEHAVIOR OF STAINLESS STEELS. Quarterly Technical Progress Report, April-June 1962

Description: Activities in a program to obtain data on thermal-stressfatigue in various stainless steels under reactor conditions are reported. Information concerning procurement of equipment and materials is given along results of initial testing. A specimen of 304 stainless steel was strain-rate tested at 100 to 900 deg C. The averaged result of this test was 0.0005 in./in.-sec. Tensile testing of standard ASTM 1/2-in.-dia stainless steel rods is underway. Data obtained so far in the program are compared … more

Tests of a Vapor-Space Feed Nozzle for Calcining Aluminum Nitrate Solutions in a Fluidized Bed

Description: An investigation was conducted to determine the performance of a vapor- space feed nozzle which sprayed aluminum nitrate solution on the surface of a fluidized bed calciner. Results indicate that this type of feed system is satisfactory for calcining aqueous wastes from the processing of spent aluminum- type nuclear fueIs. Process and product control were achieved by adjusting the volumetric ratio of the air to the liquid fed to the nozzIe. The results obtained at various operating conditions a… more

INVESTIGATION OF THE TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY OF COLD EXTRUSION FOR ZIRCALOY-2 TUBING PRODUCTION. Quarterly Technical Progress Report, October-December 1960

Description: S>Activities included completion of room-temperature extrusion tests on Zircaloy bar, and extrusions with 50% reduction at temperatures up to 400 deg C. Results of these tests are tabulated along with results of billet piercing tests at 300 deg C. It is noted that production of capped Zircaloy tubes by cold extrusion appears promising. (J.R.D.)

Fuel Cycle Program, a Boiling Water Reactor Research and Development Program. Third Quarterly Report, January 1961-March 1961

Description: The continuing analysis of the VBWR core resulted in refinements in the calculations for reactivity in voids, flux leakage and resonance escape probability. The Zircaloy cladding for 25 fuel assemblies was received and passed inspection. Preliminary measurements of VBWR flux oscillations, used to develop instrumentation and data interpretation techniques, showed random normally-distributed oscillations with a predominant frequency of 0.5 to 1.0 cycles/second. A model for analog computer simulat… more
