Slug Temperatures in an Off-Center Annulus

Description: Abstract. Temperatures are measured at two points in an internally heated jacketed slug which is cooled by water flowing in an off-center annulus around the slug. The variations of these temperatures with water velocity, water temperature, power, and the amount the annulus is off center are measured. The temperature near the slug surface which approaches and comes in contact with the water jacket does not increase as much as anticipated. The temperature near the slug surface on the side which i… more

Tests of NACA 65(216)-420 and 66(218)-420 Airfoils at High Speeds

Description: Report presenting wind tunnel tests of NACA 65(216)-420 and 66(218)-420 airfoils at speeds up to and slightly above the critical. Section coefficients of lift, drag, and pitching-moment and extensive pressure-distribution data are presented. The critical speed for these airfoils at their design life coefficient of 0.4 is shown to be about 460 miles per hour at seal level and about 415 miles per hour at 25,000 feet altitude.

Healing of Fast-Neutron-Induced Changes in Graphite. II. The Effect of Heating During Exposure, Interim Report on Problem 323 MLC 2301

Description: Technical report. The effect of temperature during pile exposure on the fast-neutron-induced change in properties of graphite was studied. Temperatures up to 125 degrees C have no effect upon the rate of increase of elastic modulus; pieces exposed at 300 degrees C on the other hand show no change at all in elastic modulus. The increase in electrical resistance s an inverse function of the temperature of exposure at all temperatures in the range 60 to 300 degrees C.

Thermal Transfer to an Annular Water Stream in the Neighborhood of a Rib

Description: Abstract. Steady-state temperatures were measured in an electrically heated brass cylinder which was water cooled in a four-ribbed Al tube. Thermal transfer coefficients h were calculated from the measured temperatures. Curves of h values are presented for the regions of high and low ribs. the h curve is found to show a much sharper break in the region of high rib than in a low rib region. There is some evidence that h decreases linearly with annular thickness in the range considered. The low r… more
