Research on Thermoelectric Heat Pumps

Description: From Results: "Prior to stating results achieved, let us first discuss the measurements we were able to make, and how these measurements might--or might not--be indicative of the objective we strove to reach. Tables I and II, and related Figs. 11 and 12, show the best results obtained. Final Columns of Tables I and II are believed to show, at least to a degree, how good or how poor our best sputtered films turned out to be, compared with top-quality Peliter semiconductor materials."

A Proposal for the Mc2 Isochronous Cyclotron: A General Purpose High-Intensity 810-MeV Proton Accelerator

Description: Abstract: "The Oak Ridge National Laboratory proposes to build an isochronous eight-sector proton cyclotron to provide an extracted beam in excess of 100 A at 810 MeV. The primary proton beam and the secondary meson and neutron beams will be used to investigate nuclear structure, and the interactions between elementary particles. Biomedical and Space-oriented research programs are also planned. Shielded research areas and an extensive beam transport and analysis system are provided. Theoretical… more

TECHNIQUES FOR ANALYZING NONSTATIONARY VIBRATION DATA

Description: Methods are described and discussed, from a general viewpoint, for analyzing data on non-stationary vibrations. The analysis must take into account both frequency and time as variables, so the methods used are complex and voluminous. The case is also considered in which the vibrations are non- stationary but repetitive. The application of the methods discussed in analysis of missile-vibration problems is outlined. (T.F.H.)

THE RECOVERY OF MECHANICALLY ENTRAPPED PLUTONIUM FROM CASTING SKULLS AND TURNINGS

Description: The small critical mass of plutonium which limits charge size, coupled with its value necessithting quantitative recovery from all residues, makes the direct recovery of mechanically entrapped plutonium from casting skulls and oxidized turnings an economic necessity. The newest method used at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory for the direct recovery of entrapped plutonium involves mechanical stirring and vibration of the plutonium melt to physically break up to spongy skull and oxide film, t… more

The Crosscorrelation Method of Measuring System Dynamic Response

Description: The basic relations of the crosscorrelation method are presented; and variations of the method for dealing with practical cases for which the idealized relations are inaccurate due to finite experiment length, finite bandwidth of the input signal, and uncorrelated noise in the system response signal are discussed and demonstrated.

Shield Small Source Experiments. Summary Report

Description: A shielding experiment was performed that provided a proof test of the shield calculation methods used in the MCR shield desing and provides a partial confirmation of cross-section data. Measurements were made with a gamma spectrometer behind a configuration consisting of a layer of gamma shielding material followed by a neutron shield, with the configuration exposed to neutrons from a Po --Be source. The test configuration is illustrated. Secondary gamma rays produced in the assembly were meas… more

Flow Controller Evaluation for Sodium Service

Description: Tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of a 10-in. flow controller in sodium at temperatures up to 1200 deg F. Torque tube reliability was determined by extensive mechanical cycling tests and further checking with a helium mass-spectrometer leak detector. Flow control performance and valve vibration characteristics were tested and evaluated and flow rate limits were established. The valve assembly was subjected to a thermal shock test program simulated to represent the most severe con… more
