Standpipe-bubbler pump level-control study sodium temperature distribution (task B)

Description: A thermal analysis was performed to establish requirements for a heating system for the standpipe bubbler sufficient to maintain the sodium in the standpipe in a liquid condition over the range of operating conditions. There are very few formal requirements on operating limits or hardware selection. Therefore, consideration was given to standard types of equipment employed in a conventional manner. The recommended heating system consists of metal-sheathed resistance heaters with three units bei… more

Influence of lateral mass efflux on free convection boundary layers in a saturated porous medium. Technical report No. 13

Description: The effects of lateral mass efflux with prescribed temperature and velocity on vertical free convection boundary layers in a saturated porous medium at high Rayleigh numbers are studied analytically. Within the framework of boundary layer theory, similarity solutions are obtained for the special case where the prescribed temperature and velocity of the fluid vary as x/sup lambda/ and x/sup (lambda-1)/2/ respectively. The effects of mass efflux on surface heat transfer rate and boundary layer th… more

Stress analyses of perforated flat plates under in-plate loadings

Description: Strain-gaged flat plates having one, two, three, and five closely spaced holes were tested under uniaxial and 1:1 biaxial loading conditions. The experimental results of these tests were compared with corresponding calculated values obtained using the computer program TABLES, which was developed at Battelle-Columbus Laboratories. The study was conducted (1) to obtain highly reliable experimental data that can be used in the design of penetrations in vessels having large radii of curvature, (2) … more

Calculations of fuel temperature transients in the LPTR following a main coolant system pump trip

Description: An analysis was made to determine the fuel temperature in the Livermore Pool Type Reactor, LPTR, during a transient involving a reactor scram following a cooling system pump trip. A computer code was obtained for this purpose from the University of Virginia. This code was used in preparation of UVAR-18, the SAR Manual of the University of Virginia Reactor. This reactor is very similar to the LPTR. The code incorporates a form of the reactor point kinetics equation with six delayed neutron group… more

Argus Laser Fusion Facility

Description: ARGUS is a two-beam Nd: glass laser system built for laser fusion irradiation experiments. It is the first glass laser system planned and built with the understanding that small-scale beam break-up is the dominant performance limiting factor in obtaining high output power. Accordingly, five vacuum spatial filters are located at strategic intervals along each chain to eliminate the accumulated small-scale filamentation. This strategy permits cascading of amplifiers to obtain a focusable output o… more

Laser beam trapping and propagation in cylindrical plasma columns

Description: An analysis of the scheme to heat magnetically confined plasma columns to kilovolt temperatures with a laser beam requires consideration of two propagation problems. The first question to be answered is whether stable beam trapping is possible. Since the laser beam creates its own density profile by heating the plasma, the propagation of the beam becomes a nonlinear phenomenon, but not necessarily a stable one. In addition, the electron density at a given time depends on the preceding history o… more

Neutronics and mass transport in a chemical reactor associated with controlled thermonuclear fusion reactor

Description: The formation of ozone from oxygen and the dissociation carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide and oxygen is studied in a gamma-neutron chemical process blanket associated with a controlled thermonuclear reactor. Materials used for reactor tube wall will affect the efficiency of the energy absorption by the reactants and consequently the yield of reaction products. Three kinds of materials, aluminum, stainless steel and fiber (Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/)-aluminium are investigated for the tube wall material … more

Physiopathology of blood platelets and development of platelet substitutes. Progress report, August 1, 1975--July 31, 1976

Description: Progress is reported on studies on the physiology of blood platelets in thrombocytopenic patients and rabbits. Methods for the detection of platelet antibodies and the preservation of platelets in vitro were investigated. Studies on the effect of low doses of x irradiation (up to 1000 R) on platelet function indicate that platelets exposed to ionizing radiation have increased functional activity. A list is included of publications that report the results of the studies in detail.

Synthetic-pitch binders by autoclave polymerization of organics

Description: Polymers prepared by autoclave heat treatment of simple hydrocarbons were evaluated as sources of synthetic pitches for use in fabricating composite carbons. Hydrocarbons included: indene, phenanthrene, triphenylbenzene, 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiyne, and cinnamylideneindene. Autoclave temperatures and pressures were in the ranges of 340 to 515/sup 0/C and 5 to 28 MPa, respectively. The more promising pitch materials were liquids or low-melting solids with coke yields of approximately 50 weight pe… more

Apparatus for spot welding sheathed thermocouples to the inside of small-diameter tubes at precise locations

Description: Equipment and procedures used to spot weld tantalum- or stainless-steel-sheathed thermocouples to the inside diameter of Zircaloy tubing to meet the requirements of the Multirod Burst Test (MRBT) Program at ORNL are described. Spot welding and oxide cleaning tools were fabricated to remove the oxide coating on the Zircaloy tubing at local areas and spot weld four thermocouples separated circumferentially by 90/sup 0/ at any axial distribution desired. It was found necessary to apply a nickel co… more

Neutral currents and parity breakdown in atomic transitions: three proposed experiments

Description: This paper describes three proposed experiments for observing the breakdown of parity in atomic transitions due to the exchange of neutral, parity-violating currents arising from some of the new gauge models (e.g., the Weinberg model) for the weak interaction. The experiments are based on exploiting a suggestion, by Bouchiat and Bouchiat, that modern laser technology be utilized to produce intense, monochromatic, and polarized photon beams with which to excite forbidden atomic transitions of th… more
