An Advanced Fracture Characterization and Well Path Navigation System for Effective Re-Development and Enhancement of Ultimate Recovery From the Complex Monterey Reservoir of South Ellwood Field, Offshore California, Quarterly Report: January - March 2003

Description: Venoco Inc, intends to re-develop the Monterey Formation, a Class III basin reservoir, at South Ellwood Field, Offshore Santa Barbara, California. Well productivity in this field varies significantly. Cumulative Monterey production for individual wells has ranged from 260 STB to 8,700,000 STB. Productivity is primarily affected by how well the well path connects with the local fracture system and the degree of aquifer support. Cumulative oil recovery to date is a small percentage of the origina… more

Advanced Modeling and Materials in Kraft Pulp Mills

Description: This CRADA provided technical support to the Weyerhaeuser Company on a number of issues related to the performance and/or selection of materials at a number of locations in a pulp and paper mill. The studies related primarily to components for black liquor recovery boilers, but some effort was directed toward black liquor gasifiers and rolls for paper machines. The purpose of this CRADA was to assist Weyerhaeuser in the evaluation of materials exposed in various paper mill environments and to p… more

ALARA Analysis of Radiological Control Criteria Associated with Alternatives for Disposal of Hazardous Wastes

Description: This ALARA analysis of Radiological Control Criteria (RCC) considers alternatives to continued storage of certain DOE mixed wastes. It also considers the option of treating hazardous wastes generated by DOE facilities, which have a very low concentration of radionuclide contaminants, as purely hazardous waste. Alternative allowable contaminant levels examined correspond to doses to an individual ranging from 0.01 mrem/yr to 10 to 20 mrem/yr. Generic waste inventory data and radionuclide source … more

Altitude-performance and Reynolds number investigation of centrifugal-flow-compressor turbojet engine

Description: From Introduction: "Altitude-chamber and wind-tunnel investigations of the performance of turbojet engines such as those reported in references 1 to 4 have shown that the conventional correction factors fail to generalize the engine performance variables at high altitudes. An investigation was therefore made at the NACA Lewis laboratory to determine the altitude performance of the J33-A-23 turbojet engine and to demonstrate the magnitude of departure of actual altitude performance from that pre… more

Analysis of Heavy Water by Equilibration

Description: Technical report discussing that the deuterium concentration of heavy water can be determined by equilibrating the water with deuterium gas in the presence of a catalyst with subsequent analysis of the equilibrated gas on the mas spectrometer. The apparatus for equilibration analyses maybe be considered in three parts: 1) apparatus for introducing the ingredients into the reaction chambers; 2) the reaction chambers; 3) the mass spectrometer for analysis of the equilibrated gas. The isotopic co… more

AN ANALYSIS OF THE MAGNESIUM-CO$sub 2$ REACTIONS IN TERMS OF A REACTOR ENVIRONMENT

Description: The hazards associnted with the use of magnesium capsules in a CO/sub 2/- cooled reactor system have been analyzed, and consideration has been given to incidents which could lead to excessive temperature excursions and factors which could significantly reduce the ignition temperature of magnesium alloys. Methods of reducing the hazards associated with the Calder Hall type of reactor are discussed, and an experimental approach with which to define more aaccurately conditions that would lead to i… more

Annual performance report for ``A program of FRC theory research``

Description: The original activities carried out under this Grant were specific to the Fusion scheme known as the Field Reversed Configuration (FRC). With the decisions of the Department of Energy to deemphasize experimental activity in the areas known as ``alternate concepts,`` we have generalized our studies. Since the research we have perfomed on the FRC led us into the area of high beta (8{pi}nT/B{sup 2}) and large orbits, we have chosen to emphasize those areas of plasma physics. The relevance to the m… more

Antiproton catalyzed fusion

Description: Because of the potential application to power production, it is important to investigate a wide range of possible means to achieve nuclear fusion, even those that may appear initially to be infeasible. In antiproton catalyzed fusion, the negative antiproton shields the repulsion between the positively charged nuclei of hydrogen isotopes, thus allowing a much higher level of penetration through the repulsive Coulomb barrier, and thereby greatly enhancing the fusion cross section. Because of thei… more

Application of ERTS Images and Image Processing to Regional Geologic Problems and Geologic Mapping in Northern Arizona

Description: Report detailing a study to apply the techniques of computer image processing to Earth resources technology satellites (ERTS) images as an aid to the solution of some regional geologic problems. ERTS-1 images were applied to studies in the Shivwits Plateau, Cococino Plateau, and north-central Ariozona regions. A detailed map of the major fault systems in a 90,000 sq km area in northern Arizona was compiled from high altitude photographs and pre-existing published and unpublished map data. With … more

Appropriate B indices for evaluating load-controlling stresses in piping products at elevated temperatures

Description: At the present time, rules for design of piping for nuclear power plant elevated temperature service are contained in Code Case 1592-8. A Task Group under the Code Working Group on Pipe Design has prepared a revised portion on piping for a future revision of Code Case 1592. This revised portion contains explicit equations for calculating stresses; those stresses are limited by the general stress limits of the Code Case. The stress equations involve the use of stress indices which, except for th… more

Approximate analysis of effects of large deflections and initial twist on torsional stiffness of a cantilever plate subjected to thermal stresses

Description: From Summary: "An approximate analysis of the nonlinear effects of initial twist and large deflections on the torsional stiffness of a cantilever plate subjected to a nonuniform temperature distribution is presented. The Von Karman large-deflection equations are satisfied through the use of a variational principle. The results show that initial twist and applied moments can have significant effects on the changes in stiffness produced by nonuniform heating, particularly in the region of the buc… more
