Prototype gauge for measuring contour and wall thicknesses of hemispherical parts. [Interferometer]

Description: A prototype gauge (gage) was designed and fabricated using air bearings in a new configuration to provide less error and distortion during inspection of hemispherical parts. No wear occurs on the moving parts during operations and accuracy of alignment is maintained. The gauge will check outside radial distance, inside radial, and outside radial and wall, and inner radial and wall thicknesses of parts. The gauge contains only four moving parts, which increases the measuring accuracy. A horizont… more

Large aperture contact ionized Cs/sup +1/ ion source for an induction linac

Description: A 500 KeV one-ampere Cs/sup +1/ ion beam has been generated by contact ionization with a 30 cm dia. iridium hot plate. Reproducibility of space charge limited ion current wave forms at repetition rates up to 1 Hz has been verified. The beam is characterized to be very bright and suitable as an ion source for the induction linac based heavy ion fusion scheme. The hot anode plate was found to be reliable and self-cleaning during the operation.

Elastic and strength properties of Hanford concrete mixes at room and elevated temperatures

Description: The effects of long-term exposure to elevated temperatures on the physical properties of concrete mixes used in Hanford radioactive waste storage tanks were determined. Temperature had a significant effect on the elastic modulus of concretes. Poisson's ratio determined by the sonic method remained relatively constant. The splitting tensile strength increased rapidly up to 190 days of age. Then strength decreased to about 350 days and either leveled off or increased from that point on. Comp… more

Flexible cubic spline interpolation

Description: This report describes a simple, efficient, and flexible program for cubic spline interpolation in one dimension, suitable for inclusion in the ANL Subroutine Library and in an interactive timesharing system. Most of the cubic spline programs already available either restrict the boundary conditions to knowledge of the first derivative at both end points, or require the second derivatives to vanish at these points. The program described here removes these restrictions and enables the user to ado… more

Optical probe for local void fraction and interface velocity measurements. [BWR; PWR]

Description: In view of the importance of obtaining unsteady local void fraction and interface velocities in liquid-vapor two-phase flows, an optical probe with a controlled tip geometry was developed and is described. In order to minimize the disturbances caused to the flow field by the presence of the probe, its dimensions have been miniaturized. The electronic and hydrodynamic response of the probe were investigated experimentally. The probe was found to be sensitive to both the interface velocities and … more

Model for magnetic reconnection

Description: A forced reconnection problem was modeled by two infinite wires that are embedded in a plasma which carry parallel currents. They are brought together at a specified rate. The distance between the wires is taken as 2a(1-e/sup ..omega..t/). For small displacements, the hydromagnetic equations can be linearized and solved asymptotically. For larger displacements, the plasma behavior can be estimated by use of scaling arguments. We determine a local velocity of magnetic reconnection and show that … more

Development of a High Velocity Solid Particle Launcher for Laboratory Erosion Studies. [Reentry Vehicle Heat Shields]

Description: A solid particle launcher for laboratory erosion studies has been developed and successfully demonstrated. Performance of the launcher is predicted by a two-dimensional, time-dependent theoretical analysis to within the experimental uncertainty. The present device accelerates 100 ÎĽm diameter glass spheres to velocities of 2.1+/- 0.6 km/sec. The system is safe, reliable, and has a test repetition of about 2 shots/hour.
