POSTIRRADIATION EXAMINATION OF CENTRIFUGALLY BONDED EBR-11 DRIVER FUEL

Description: BNW was requested by AEC/DRDT to assist ANL with the postirradiation examination of EBR-II driver fuel (U + 5Fs) pins that became shortened during irradiation. To date, three irradiated pins and one nonirradiated pin were examined.

Compact Thermoelectric Converter. Phase II-C. Final Report, 1 July 1968-30 June 1969

Description: Tubular thermoelectric module technology was advanced during Phase II-C of the Compact Converter Program to the extent that the baseline temperature for module testing was raised from 1000°F 1100°F. Significant development work was performed to produce a system utilizing a heat pipe that transmitted thermal energy from an external heat source to a tubular module.

Reactor Flow and Pressure Drop Study

Description: A study was made to determine the flow rates and pressure drops for all primary system flow paths through the FTR. The main data and results are in tables, diagrams and curves. The results are intended to provide a common basis for evaluation of parametric changes in the system.

A heuristic examination of scaling

Description: This study investigates the scaling of dimensions of craters formed by nuclear explosive sources as well as the problem of making consistent estimates of other geonuclear effects including maximum base surge radius, vented fraction of the gamma emitting radionuclides appearing in close-in fallout, and main cloud dimensions. Input to the proposed scaling method includes the Froude number as determined by the depth of burial and the mound surface velocity at vent time, and the pressure in the cav… more

Development of High Energy Polymers Systems: 6th Monthly Status Report

Description: The major objective of the current program is the preparation of high energy hydroxyl-terminated polyester prepolymers from combinations of energetic diols and dicarboxylic acid chlorides. The initial work was based on the reactions of 4,4-dinitropimeloyl chloride (DNPCl) with 2,2,8,8-tetranitro-4,6-dioxa-1,9-nonanediol (DINOL) and 3(dinitrofluoro- ethoxy)-1,2-propanediol (REX-18). In an effort to develop a smooth and rapid polyester polymerization method, reactions between DNPCl and both DINOL… more

The Effect of Soil Parameters on Earth Penetration of Projectiles

Description: The purpose of this study can be divided into the three following parts: 1) to present complete sets of data obtained for projectile penetration into soil targets of precisely known properties, and to describe how to build and test these targets; 2) to present a numerical method of data analysis for empirically determining the force on a projectile, during penetration; and 3) to demonstrate how physical soil parameters, as well as impact velocity and a projectile property influence penetration.

Passage of Charged Particles Through Matter

Description: Some commonly used formulas and principal data on the passage of fast charged particles through matter are presented. The areas covered include: atomic collision cross sections; stopping power for heavy charged particles; range-energy relations; shell corrections and I-values; straggling of heavy particles; coulomb and multiple scattering, and nuclear interactions; electrons; and mean energy for the formation of an ion pair.

Thulium-170 oxide heat source experimental and analytical radiation and shielding study

Description: The results of radiation dose rates measurements performed with three Thulium-170 oxide radioactive sources (initial strengths 20.7, 10.0 and 5.0 thermal watts) through aluminum, stainless steel, lead, tungsten and depleted uranium absorbers at two source-to-dose-point separation distances agreed well with corresponding calculated values, thereby validating the calculation technique.
