Development of molten carbonate fuel cell power plant. Quarterly progress report, February 1, 1982-April 30, 1982

Description: Work proceeded this quarter mainly under three program tasks. Under Task 1.0, work was started on preparing a description of the reference Steam Injection System. It is planned to lay out the plant in power unit trains rated at a nominal 100 MW(e). Under Task 2.0, work continued on anode, cathode, current collector, and electrolyte tile develoment and stack design and analysis. Corrosion test results of various current collector materials after 3500 hours exposure are reported. Sintering data a… more

Comparison of measured and calculated uranium isotopic concentrations in cascade streams at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant

Description: A test has been performed at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PGDP) in connection with studies for the US Arms Control and Disarmament Agency on the possibility of utilizing measurements of the concentrations of the minor uranium isotopes in /sup 235/U enrichment cascade external streams as a safeguards technique (MIST). This is the fourth plant test that has been performed in connection with the MIST studies, the first three having been done at the Oak Ridge Gaseous Diffusion Plant (ORGDP)… more

Technological implications of SNAP reactor power system development on future space nuclear power systems

Description: Nuclear reactor systems are one method of satisfying space mission power needs. The development of such systems must proceed on a path consistent with mission needs and schedules. This path, or technology roadmap, starts from the power system technology data base available today. Much of this data base was established during the 1960s and early 1970s, when government and industry developed space nuclear reactor systems for steady-state power and propulsion. One of the largest development progra… more

Enhancement of heat production through selective scaling

Description: The heat-depleted brine has to be reinjected whether it is for technical, economical, environmental and/or legal purposes. However, there are many problems related to injectivity and injectability in a geothermal field. The major drawback is the dread of an early breakthrough of the heat depleted brine at the production wells. It is believed that this drawback may be overcome through selective scaling. The results of investigation into the feasibility of selective scaling are summarized. Select… more
