100-C water plant

Description: System curves for each portion of the C Area Water Plant were obtained from referenced work and are presented in figures. Field test data, corroborating the calculated curves, are presented as singular points on the same graphs. Present maxima capacity of the C Area Filter Plant was 121,000 gpm with 118,000 gpm available for use as primary reactor coolant. Modifications to the filter effluent piping would increase this available flow to about 180,000 gpm. Of the 118,000 gpm available for C Reac… more

THE NUCLEAR FUEL CYCLE: PROSPECTS FOR REDUCING ITS COST

Description: Nuclear fuel cost of 1.25 mills/kwh would make nuclear power competitive with conventional power in lowcost coal areas if capital and operating costs can be brought to within about 10 percent of those of coal-fired plants. Substantial decreases in fuel fabrication cost are anticipated by 1970: other costs in the fuel cycle are expccted to remain about the same as at present. Unit costs and irradiation levels that would be needed to give a fuel cost of 1.25 mills/kwh are believed to be attainabl… more

Drag Measurements of a 34 Degree Swept-Forward and Swept-Back NACA 65-009 Airfoil of Aspect Ratio 2.7 as Determined by Flight Tests at Supersonic Speeds

Description: Report presenting the results of flight testing to determine the zero-lift drag of an NACA 65-009 airfoil at a specified aspect ratio. The results are compared to previous testing of unswept and swept-back arrangements. The swept-forward and swept-back airfoils were found to produce lower values of zero-drag lift than the unswept airfoil.

FY 2007 Miniature Spherical Retroreflectors Final Report

Description: Miniature spherical retroreflectors, less than 8 millimeters in diameter, are currently being developed to enhance remote optical detection of nuclear proliferation activities. These retroreflecting spheres resemble small, sand-colored marbles that have the unique optical property of providing a strong reflection directly back to the source (i.e., retroreflecting) when illuminated with a laser. The addition of specific coatings, sensitive to specific chemicals or radioactive decay in the enviro… more

HEAT OF DILUTION CALCULATION FOR 19 MOLAR SODIUM HYDROXIDE WITH WATER FOR USE IN 241-S-112

Description: High concentration caustic solutions are known to cause stress corrosion cracking in carbon steel at elevated temperature. This calculation establishes the conditions where heat of dilution will not cause the solution temperature--concentration to exceed the boundary for stress corrosion cracking as established by NACE International.

Computational physical oceanography -- A comprehensive approach based on generalized CFD/grid techniques for planetary scale simulations of oceanic flows. Final report, September 1, 1995--August 31, 1996

Description: The original intention for this work was to impart the technology that was developed in the field of computational aeronautics to the field of computational physical oceanography. This technology transfer involved grid generation techniques and solution procedures to solve the governing equations over the grids thus generated. Specifically, boundary fitting non-orthogonal grids would be generated over a sphere taking into account the topography of the ocean floor and the topography of the conti… more

The Relationship Between the Surface Appearance and Depth of Damage of Subfabric and Bare Skin Burns Produced by Radiant Thermal Energy

Description: In a series of 600 cutaneous burns in swine produced by radiant thermal energy at 0.5 and 5.0 sec exposure time, the relationship of thc surface appearance and the depth of damage of bare skin and subfabric burns was investigated. The fabrics used were a black and a gray sateen weighing 8 to 9 oz/ yd/sup 2/. It was found that there is no significant difference in the 1+ burns whether produced on bare skin or beneath fabric, either at 0.5 or 5.0 sec exposure. However, the 2+ subfabric burns aver… more
