A LINEAR INDUCTION PUMP FOR LIQUID METALS

Description: A linear induction pump of a special design was used to circulate molten sodium through a mockup of an experimental "overflow" type of sodium-cooled reactor. The distinctive features of this pump are that no seals or moving parts are required: no piping is required to carry sodium to the pump or away from it because the pump is mounted directly on the reactor vessel, with the windings outside of the vessel and the magnetic flux return path inside the vessel. The pump develops 342 gpm at 6.2 psi… more

Progress Report for Period Covering December 17, 1969 - January 15, 1960

Description: As reported in the previous Progress Report (December 16, 1959) a stock solution of Th 230 was prepared from pitchblende. Pulse height analysis of this solution indicated the presence of only Th 230 (93%), Th 227 (5%), Th 232 (1%), and Th 228 (1%). This solution was used to make up synthetic thorium solution of various concentration. These synthetic solutions were analyzed to establish a chemical yield for the procedure. Neither the precision nor the chemical yield of the procedure were conside… more

Radioactive Drug Research, Final Summary Report, July 1949 to October 1959

Description: Applications of radioisotopes in the preparation of labeled drugs are reviewed. Among the applications described are the preparation of carbon-14- labeled cardiac glycosides, and the biosyinthesis of carbon-14-labeled digitoxin, morphine, colchicine, atropine, podophyllotoxin, and nicotine. The fate and metabolism of many of these drugs were traced. Radiochemical procedures were developed for the synthesis of pure compounds of pharmacological interest labeled with carbon-14, sulfur-35, and trit… more

Results of Differential Bed Study of the Kinetics of the Absorption of UF6 on Sodium Fluoride

Description: One step in the Volatility process for power reactor fuel reprocessing involves the absorption and subsequent desorption of UF6 from NaF pellets in fixed beds. In 1958 an experimental study of the kinetics of absorption of HF on NaF beds was made. The purpose of this work was to extend the study to the kinetics of UF6 absorption on NaF. The results should be useful in the design and operation of the Volatility process.
