Baseline Gas Turbine Development Program Seventh Quarterly Progress Report

Description: Progress is reported for a program to demonstrate by 1976 an experimental gas turbine powered automobile which meets the 1976 Federal Emissions Standards, has significantly improved fuel economy, and is competitive in performance, reliability, and potential manufacturing cost with the conventional piston engine powered, standard size American automobile. All of the baseline vehicles are now operational and are performing Program tests. Vehicle tests completed in this quarter include noise reduc… more

Baseline Gas Turbine Development Program Sixth Quarterly Progress Report

Description: Progress is reported for a program to demonstrate by 1976 an experimental gas turbine powered automobile which meets the 1976 Federal Emissions Standards, has significantly improved fuel economy, and is competitive in performance, reliability, and potential manufacturing cost with the conventional piston engine powered, standard size American automobile. Engines were built to replace those originally loaned to the Program. Efforts to identify and correct a general power deficiency were generall… more

Conceptual design 10 MW experimental power generation facility

Description: The overall or ultimate program envisions a small (10 MW) field experimental, highly instrumented, binary fluid cycle power plant facility planned to confirm the concept and evaluate technical and economic feasibility of the large scale use of geothermal energy resources. The eight year program duration anticipates four years for exploration and construction, two years for research and development of initial operations, and two years for research and development effort during production operati… more

Inevitability of gravitational collapse

Description: It is proven that a sufficient accumulation of cold, uncharged, nonrotating matter cannot be stable against gravitational collapse. The highlights of the proof are: (1) fewer assumptions are made than previous arguments for collapse, in particular, the plausible, but unproved, causality'' assumption. (2) The amount of matter is measured by its baryon number, not its mass, since mass can be radiated away. (3) The precise analog of the argument that the Schwarzschild radius is proportional to the… more

Reaction of high salt aqueous plus organic waste with soil. Interim report

Description: A study was nmade to determine if it would be feasible to put a high salt, acidic aqueous waste mixed with organic compounds into the Z-1A tile field. The factors considered were the extent of adsorption of plutonium and americium by the soil and the effect on the infiltration of the waste into the soil by the organic compounds present. lt was found that soil has a considerable capacity for the high salt, acidic waste containing organic compounds and can imbibe it almost as readily as water. Th… more
