An Experimental Investigation of Two-Phase, Two-Component Flow in a Horizontal, Converging-Diverging Nozzle

Description: A discussion is presented of an investigation of the flow characteristics in a horizontal, converging-diverging nozzle for a two-phase, air- water system. The primary consideration, to determine the effects of accelerating the liquid phase by the gaseous phase, was measured in terms of nozzle exit water velocity, exit slip ratio, and exit acceleration factor. A gamma-ray-attenuation technique was used to determine these values by determining the average cross-sectional void fraction, the ratio … more

High Density Slag Concrete

Description: Test results are presented that show that a strong concrete weighing approximately 185 lb/ft/sup 3/ can be made using water, waste lead slag, and Ciment Fondu. Feasibility, materials, mortar tests, concrete tests, and Ciment Fondu concretes are discussed. A 24-in.-thick concrete shield wall would have to be increased in thickness by 5 in. if slag concrete is used in place of barytes or magnetite concrete. On a pound-for-pound basis, the waste lead slag concrete materials were 30% cheaper than b… more

The Low-Temperature Heat Capacity of Tin and Indium

Description: The heat capacity of In was measured from 0.08 to 4.2 deg K, and that of Sn from 0.09 to 1.2 deg K. The results on In show that below about 0.7 deg K the total superconducting-state heat capacity is less than the normal-state lattice heat capacity alone. This result is surprising compared with analyses of the heat capacity data of a superconductor made in the usual way. However, the effect was not observed in Sn. Comparisons with other pertinent experiments are made, and two proposed explanatio… more

Transport Solutions to the Monoenergetic Critical Problems

Description: Transport solutions to the monoenergetic plane, spherical, and cylindrical critical problems with isotropic scattering are developed by the method of singular expansion modes. The results are given in the form of exact expressions for the neutron distributions and criticality conditions. These expressions depend on expansion coefficients that are shown to satisfy Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Successive approximations on the coefficients lead to the asymptotic results of diffu… more

EMISSION SPECTRA OF ELECTRON IRRADIATED METAL FOILS

Description: Thesis submitted to Univ. of Tennessee by L. C. Emerson. An experimental investigation of the visible and ultraviolet light emitted when a charged particle moves across a boundary between two media with different dielectric properties was carried out. The spectral distributions of the light from evaporated foils of copper, germanium, silver, tin, and antimony bombarded by a 1.5-microamp beam of electrons were measured as a function of electron energy between 25 and 100 kev. The analysis was car… more
