Transistor Counting Systems for Scintillation Detectors

Description: The requirements for multiple-coincidence counting systems with 10{sup -8}- to 10{sup -9}-sec time resolution can be met economically with presently available high-frequency transistors. The design of solid-state coincidence circuits, amplitude discriminators, and decade scalers is considered and their operation discussed. Several systems have been designed utilizing up to 180 channels from scintillation detectors.

Laboratory determination of normal operating flow rates with the 105-F rear face floating nozzle

Description: A new rear nozzle has been developed by Mechanical Development (A), IPD to alleviate the stuck gun barrel problem on the process tubes at F reactor. This nozzle is called the 105-F rear face floating nozzle (RFFN) and is shown in Figure 4. The purpose of this study was to determine the hydraulic operating characteristics of this nozzle and to compare these characteristics with those of the standard nozzle assemblies. This report is essentially an addendum to EW-63756 1 which presented energy lo… more

THE SOLUBILITY OF NITROGEN AND OXYGEN IN LITHIUM AND METHODS OF LITHIUM PURIFICATION

Description: Experiments were conducted to determine the solubility of N and O in Li at 250 to 450 ction prod- C and to determine which of several possible purification methods is most effective in reducing the N and O content of Li. The solubility of N in Li increased from 0.04 wt.% at 250 ction prod- C to 1.31 wt.% at 450 ction prod- C. The solubility of O was found to be 0.010 wt.% at 250 ction prod- C and increased to 0.066 wt.% at 400 ction prod- C. Vacuum distillation, lowtemperature filtration. cold-… more

Steam Water Pressure Drop and Critical Discharge Flow - A Digital Computer Program

Description: It is the purpose of this report to explain the bands and uses of a digital computer program for the calculation of steady state steam-water pressure drop and critical flow in pipes. The program has been coded for the IBM 709 computer. While so attempt has been made to obtain improved models of two-phase flow, it is believed that the numerical integration technique used in the code will permit more accurate calculation where pressure drops are large compared to the upstream pressure. The techni… more

Reamed Rear Face Parker Fitting

Description: A study and tests of the feasibility and best method of reaming rear face Parker fittings has been made. Flow increase of 8 percent, based on maintaining the same front header pressure, can be obtained at B, D, and F reactors by reaming the rear Parker fittings to .610 inch and using existing rear face hardware. Tests indicate mechanical strength will not be significantly reduced, high frequency vibration will not be increased, and that methods of reaming are available.

Reprocessing Uranium-Molybdenum Alloy Fuels-Dissolution in Concentrated Nitric Acid

Description: Dissolution of U--3 wt.% Mo alloys in 12 to 14 M HNO/sub 3/ solutions is discussed. Under these conditions 80 to 95% of the molybdenum content is precipitated as white hydrated molybdic oxide. Molybdic oxide precipitates are bulky; centrifuged volumes range from 6 to 17 vol.% for dissolver solutions 1.0 to 1.5:(M U. The precipitates retain some plutonium and uranium even after thorough washing with water and 1 M HNO/sub 3/. Plutonium and uranium values in washed precipitates can be recovered by… more

High temperature allotropy and thermal expansion of the rare-earth metals

Description: By means of high temperature X-ray techniques the crystal structure of lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, ytterbium, and possibly gadolinium was found to be body-centered cubic at temperatures near their respective melting points. For ytterbium a hexagonal close-packed structure was also observed, which was shown to be stabilized by atmospheric impurities. Evidence for possible high temperature crystalline transformations in gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, and lutetium was ob… more
