Aerothermodynamic analysis of the SNAP-27 fuel cask

Description: An aerothermodynamic analysis of the SNAP-27 LEM fuel cask is presented for each of three mission aborts. Aerodynamic models for point mass and six degree-of-freedom trajectories are used, and the fuel cask heating rates and temperature responses are predicted for these trajectories. A survey of analytical and experimental studies of separated flow is related to the fuel cask, and a shock tunnel test program is outlined for further fuel cask analyses.

TRANSVERSE COHERENT RESISTIVE INSTABILITIES OF AZIMUTHALLY BUNCHED BEAMS IN PARTICLE ACCELERATORS

Description: The transverse electromagnetic coupling of bunches of particles with each other is investigated theoretically, and shown to incorporate the possibility (due to the effect of nonperfectly conducting vacuum chamber walls) of coherent instability even when the longitudinal distance between bunches is much larger than the transverse dimensions of the vacuum tank. The modes of oscillation in which the bunches move rigidly are investigated; criteria for stability, and expressions for the small amplit… more

Variable metric method for minimization. [In FORTRAN for IBM 704]

Description: A method for determining numerically local minima of differentiable functions of several variables is described. In the process of locating each minimum, a matrix which characterizes the behavior of the function about the minimum is determined. For a region in which the function depends quadratically on the variables, no more than N iterations are required, where N is the number of variables. By suitable choice of starting values and without modification of the procedure, linear constraints can… more

Mechanism and kinetics of mineral absorption by plants. Annual progress report, October 1, 1965-September 30, 1966

Description: Plant nutrition was studied as a relation between aerobic respiration and ion uptake in barley. Potassium, chlorine, lithium, sodium, calcium, sulfates, and bicarbonates were studied by root absorption in varying concentrations of carbon dioxide atmospheres. (PSB)

Feasibility Study for Perimeter Inspection of Shutdown Production Reactors

Description: In fulfillment of a request by the Atomic Energy Commission, an inspection system was developed by the Hanford Atomic Products Operation of General Electric Company during 1964 for periodic monitoring of production reactors should they be shut down under international agreement. Ground rules included access to the reactor building and to the reactor core itself for installation, checking, and removal of equipment for determining whether or not the reactor had been operated between periodic insp… more
