A crude guess as to the effect of a pile explosion on the aquatic life of the Columbia River

Description: This document contains information about the radiological result of a hypothetical explosion of one of the Hanford Production Reactors. Three aspects are discussed: 1. The effect of the radiation emitted from the explosion; 2. The contamination of the river and its aquatic life as a result of the fall out from the explosion; 3. The hazard which would result from humans eating contaminated fish.

Helium Leak Detector Test for Hanford And Savannah River Fuel Slugs

Description: The Helium Leak Detector Test provides a method for detecting the presence of minute holes, cracks, fissures, etc. in the aluminum jackets of Hanford and Savannah River reactor fuel slugs which would allow moisture to penetrate to the uranium during reactor operation.

Pressure distribution and pressure drag for a hemispherical nose at Mach numbers 2.05, 2.54, and 3.04

Description: Report presenting an experimental investigation of the pressure distributions on a hemispherical nose 3.98 inches in diameter, mounted on a cylindrical support, at several Mach and Reynolds numbers. The Reynolds number was based on body diameter and free-stream conditions. Pressure-drag coefficients were calculated and good agreement was obtained with other testing.

Theoretical Investigation of the Effects of the Artificial-Feel System on the Maneuvering Characteristics of the F-89 Airplane

Description: The possibility of overshooting the anticipated normal acceleration as a result of the artificial-feel characteristics of the F-89C airplane at a condition of minimum static stability was investigated analytically by means of an electronic simulator. Several methods of improving the stick-force characteristics were studied. It is shown that, due to the lag in build-up of the portion of the stick force introduced by the bobweight, it would be possible for excessive overshoots of normal accelerat… more

Development of the Hanford Slave Manipulator for Use in the Multicurie Cells at Hanford

Description: Introduction: "During the early planning of the multicurie cells at Hanford it was decided that a slave type manipulator would be necessary to perform the experiments for which the cells were being designed. The design required steel roofs for installation through a port hole in the face. Technical Services Equipment Development began developing the proposed manipulator in January 1951 by making a study of those existing at that tune. None met the requirements which had been established; theref… more

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Project. Progress Report for March 15, 1951 to September 1, 1951. Steady State Transients in Nuclear Resonance and the Nuclear Relaxation time. T2, for Hydrocarbons

Description: The Bloch formulation of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance is applied to a repeated pulsing of the external electromagnetic field H1. The steady-state solution is shown to predict the existence of sidebands, a mirror signal, and magnetic field inhomogeneity effects. All of these effects ae shown to be verified experimentally, thus strengthening the ap0plicibility of the Block formulation to transient problems. The solution given was used to determine T2 from the observed transient signals for liquid h… more

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Project. Progress Report III for 1 September 1951 to 15 March, 1952. Determination of the Accuracy of the Infinitely Repeated Pulse Method and the Observed Effects of Molecular Self Diffusion in Liquids

Description: The range of measurements of nuclear magnetic resonance by the infinitely repeated pulse method is higher than the slow passage method of Bloch. As the measurements approach 10-1 seconds the effect of viscosity or self diffusions becomes important. For liquid hydrocarbons this effect is such as to make the previously measured values for liquid hydrocarbons subject to severe revision. Several possibilities have recently become apparent for making this improvement.
