Directive No. HEW-77

Description: As work on the Columbia Basin irrigation project on the Columbia River is in the initial stages, the question of the effect of this project of the mineral content of the Columbia River has been raised. As an increase in dissolved mineral matter would seem to be likely, it was felt that quantitative estimate of the magnitude of this increase would be important, specifically with reference to the retaining of the demineralization plant at 100-D Area. Accordingly, a study has been made of the prob… more

Cooperation with US Geological Survey

Description: This is a reference made to a memorandum about the cooperation between the Hanford Site and the US Geological Survey. The US Geological Survey was at the site to work with Hanford on geological problems the site was having. They worked together to locate the water supply wells of the site which would be coordinated with the drilling program. They also worked together on the possible contamination to the 300 and 3000 area wells. (MB)

The Effect of Radiation on the Corrosion of Metals by Water

Description: Technical report. Long-time tests have been made on the effect of various types of radiation on the corrosion of 2S aluminum in simulated W water. In no case was any acceleration of corrosion by the radiation observed; the effect of radiation, if any, appeared to be a protective one. Deuteron irradiation did accelerate the corrosion of mild steel at low flow rates in hot water of pH 6 to 7, but no appreciable effect was observed with copper, stainless steel, or tuballoy. The general theory … more

Separation of Tuballoy From Tantalum by Chlorination Distillation Process

Description: Abstract: Tuballoy can be effectively separated from tantalum filaments by chlorination of the filaments and subsequent distillation and condensation of tantalum chloride. Apparatus for chlorination of filaments and distillation separation in one unit is under consideration. Chemical methods of separation of tuballoy from distillation residues are being tested.

Preliminary Results of Natural Icing of an Axial-Flow Turbojet Engine

Description: Memorandum presenting a flight investigation in natural icing conditions to determine the effect of ice formations on the performance of an axial-flow turbojet engine. Tail-pipe temperature increased from 761 to 1065 degrees Fahrenheit and the jet thrust decreased from 1234 to 910 pounds during a period of 45 minutes in icing. No general conclusions can be reached from the data because the icing condition was relatively light.

Aerodynamic characteristics at subcritical and supercritical Mach numbers of two airfoil sections having sharp leading edges and extreme rearward positions of maximum thickness

Description: From Introduction: "A 12-percent-chord-thick wedge section and a reversed NACA 0012 section were chosen for these tests as they are representative of sections having no boat tailing and appreciable boat tailing (i.e., blunt and rounded trailing edges, respectively), and the results of this investigation are compared with those obtained from a previous investigation of the NACA 0012 section. Conclusions are drawn regarding the relative merits of the two unconventional sections and the convention… more

A fuel-distribution control for continuous-flow manifold injection on reciprocating engines

Description: "A fuel-distribution control for continuous-flow manifold injection on reciprocating engines is described. A method is installation of the control on an engine is suggested. The device controlled the flow to four spring-loaded nozzles within 2 percent of perfect distribution over a wide range of fuel-flow rates and the distribution was practically unaffected by uneven discharge-nozzle pressures" (p. 1).

Some pressure-distribution measurements on a swept-wing at transonic speeds by the NACA wing-flow method

Description: Report presenting results of chordwise pressure-distribution measurements on a 45 degree sweptback wing at transonic speeds. The two stations for measuring were located at the 18 percent chord from the root and the 87 percent chord. The changes in pressure distribution with Mach number did not indicate any appreciable net loss in section lift, but did indicate large increases in the section drag and diving moment.

Location of Detached Shock Wave in Front of a Body Moving at Supersonic Speeds

Description: "It is shown that for velocities slightly in excess of sonic, the position of detached shock wave located in front of a given body at zero angle of attack may be estimated theoretically to a reasonable degree of accuracy. In case of bodies of revolution the result was simple, but for two-dimensional bodies, pressure coefficient varies with Mach number, and slight difficulty appears. Theory developed compares favorably with available experimental data" (p. 1).

Experimental investigation of thrust augmentation of a turbojet engine at zero ram by means of tail-pipe burning

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the performance of a turbojet engine equipped with a tail-pipe burner at zero ram over a range of rotor speeds and tail-pipe-burner fuel flows. A thrust augmentation of 40 percent was obtained at zero ram for a tail-pipe-burner fuel-air ratio of 0.043 or a total fuel-air ratio of 0.056. Results with an engine with standard tail pipe, engine with tail pipe burner and no afterburning, and engine with tail pipe burner and afterburning are provided.

An Analysis of Airspeeds Attained by a Douglas DC-4 Airplane in Commercial Operations During the Early Months of 1947

Description: Report presenting airspeed and altitude data for nonscheduled cargo operations of a Douglas DC-4 airplane between Seattle, Washington and Alaska during February and March of 1947 to determine the probability of reaching or exceeding given values of airspeed and Mach number. The total probability of exceeding a placard never-exceed speed of 266 mph depends primarily on exceeding the speed in descent. The probability was found to be about once in 100 hours of descent or once in 1000 hours of gene… more
