500-MeV electron beam bench-mark experiments and calculations

Description: Experiments measuring the energy deposited by electron beams were performed to provide bench marks against which to evaluate our HANDYL76 electron beam computer code. The experiments, done at Stanford's Mk III accelerator, measured dose vs depth and dose vs radius profiles induced in layered aluminum targets by 500-MeV electrons. The dose was measured by passive thermoluminescence and photographic film placed between aluminum plates. The calculations predict a dose vs radius profile that forwar… more

3000 MW(t) HTGR - gas turbine non-intercoolel. Technical evaluation report

Description: This report summarizes all the technical work performed on the 3000-MW(t) 3-loop High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor Gas Turbine design as of June 1979. Although the plant configuration has changed to a 2000-MW(t) 2-loop plant, most of the technical assessments described in this report are still applicable to the 2000-MW(t) plant. The report covers the criteria under which the plant was designed, the technical feasibility problems associated with the plant and their potential solutions, and oth… more

Abbreviated RD and D program portfolio selection workbook

Description: A workbook for implementing an abbreviated version of the RD and D portfolio selection methodology described in A Resource Allocation Methodology for Establishing RD and D Budgetary Priorities is presented. The purpose of the abbreviated methodology is to allow a fast, first-cut analysis of a set of programs and to provide a means of discovering important issues that deserve more detailed analysis. The use of the abbreviated methodology in the overall process of evaluating RD and D programs is … more

Accuracy of various alternate methods of calculating total mass flow rate for PKL instrumented pipe spool prototype tests in single- and two-phase steam-water flows

Description: Instrumented spool pieces for installation in the piping of the German Primarkreislauf (PKL) test reactor have been designed and tested. The primary objective of the spools is to provide measurements of two-phase steam-water flow parameters (pressure, temperature, velocity) from which mass flow rates can be calculated. Each spool contains a three-beam densitometer, flow turbine, drag screen, and pressure and temperature sensors. The spools were prototype tested in single- and two-phase steam-wa… more

Acoustic monitoring systems tests at Indian Point Unit 1. Final report

Description: This report describes the results of a program to test acoustic monitoring systems on Indian Point Unit No. 1 under actual plant operating conditions, less the reactor core. The two types of systems evaluated were the monitoring of acoustic emissions generated by growing flaws and the monitoring of acoustic signals from leaks.

THE ACTIVITY COEFFICIENT OF AQUEOUS NaHCO{sup 3}

Description: The determination of the activity coefficient and related properties of sodium bicarbonate presents special problems because of the appreciable vapor pressure of CO{sub 2} above such solutions. With the development of reliable equations for the thermodynamic properties of mixed electrolytes, it is possible to determine the parameters for NaHCO{sub 3} from cell measurements or NaCl-NaHCO{sub 3} mixtures. Literature data are analyzed to illustrate the method and provide interim values, but it is … more

Advanced on-board electric vehicle charger. Final report

Description: The design and development of an on-board charger power module for use in electric vehicles is described. The module operates at 20KHz in a series resonant, half bridge configuration. Circuit design trade-offs, module performance, and solutions to the problems of acoustic noise, maintaining high power factor, circuit protection and operating reliability are discussed. The power module operates from a single phase, 240 V, 50/60 Hz utility line. Average power factor is 0.90; efficiency at maximum… more

Advanced photovoltaic concentrator cells. Quarterly technical progress report No. 1, August 28, 1979-November 30, 1979

Description: First quarter activities for a project aimed at demonstrating the technical feasibility of advanced high efficiency concentrator solar converters are described. The goal of the program is to achieve 30% conversion efficiency with a converter operating at 30/sup 0/C under 500 to 1000 SUN AM2 illumination and 25% conversion efficiency with a converter operating at 150/sup 0/C under 500 to 1000 SUN AM2 illumination. The approach is to fabricate two cell, non-lattice matched, monolithic stacked con… more
