Stratospheric Monitoring Program

Description: "The performance of the Model I electrostatic precipitator sampler in recent field and laboratory tests is described and discussed. Two of the four precipitator-bearing balloon flights during this interval reached the floating altitude of approximates 105,000 feet, and the precipitator operated efficiently on both. One sample was collected at the nominal design flowrate of approximates 100 cfm, and the second at approximates -200 cfm. Comparison of the deposition profiles of the stratospheric s… more

Influence of the Doppler Effect on the Meltdown Accident

Description: The influence of the Doppler effect in the core disassembly process following a meltdown accident is examined with a Bethe-Tait type model in which the Doppler effect, as well as core disassembly, is considered in the reactor shutdown process. It is shown that a strong negative Doppler effect can radically reduce the explosive energy release in such an accident. (auth)
