Degradation Products of Tributyl Phosphate

Description: Abstract: "A method for determination of dibutyl phosphate in solvent streams containing tributyl phosphate is outlined. The method is based on analysis for total uranium of total phosphate after removal of uranium and phosphate in excess of that present as uranyl dibutyl phosphate. Results on plant solvent samples are presented. Difficulties with precipitation of [...] dibutyl phosphate, when fresh solvents were employed, are discussed. Small amounts of nonphosphate uranium-complexing agents w… more

Dissolver anti-foam jets

Description: The purpose of this report is to present observations, developed jointly with Purex Technology Operation, which support the ``foam`` theory for high dissolver tower differential pressure, and to recommend the installation of test jets in a dissolver jumper which should destroy dissolver foam and thereby improve overall dissolver performance.

Recent Advances in Millimicrosecond Counting Techniques

Description: The author describes some of the changes that are now occurring or are likely to occur quite soon in the fast counting techniques. The author draws heavily on the information and advice of Dr. Clyde Wiegand and Mr. Quentin Kerns of the University of California Radiation Laboratory. The techniques the author mentions should be quite useful in several different types of experiments. The fast conicidence techniques are principally used for reducing background from accidental coincidences, for meas… more

Metabolism of Thioctic Acid in Algae

Description: Thioctic acid labeled with sulfur-35 has been prepared and i t s metabolism b y algae has been studied. It i s converted by the algae into a number of forms, all of which upon hydrolysis yield either the disulfide o r i t s sulfoxide. One of these constituted the major portion of the labeled material in the chloroplasts. Aerobic metabolism for some minutes i s required to produce this form. Preliminary studies of the chemical nature of this form suggest i t to be esterified on the carboxyl grou… more

HRT-CP INSTRUMENTATION DESIGN MANUAL

Description: The installation and design of the HRT-Core Processing Plant are described in detail so that operation and maintenance of the plant may be made more effective. Process instruments will be described fully, but auxiliary instrumentation such as pressure gauges, rotameters, etc. will not be mentioned. Where detailed questions arise as to electrical circuitry or instrument connections, the drawings and specification sheets should be consulted. (auth)

Distribution of losses behind a compressor rotor as measured by a rotating rake

Description: Report presenting a rotating total-pressure survey rake to obtain wake measurements of a compressor rotor. Results indicated that there was a considerable radial flow of the inboard-blade boundary layer and little radial flow of the inner casing boundary layer. Results regarding the variation in total-pressure-loss distribution with Mach number, variation in total-pressure-loss distribution with angle of attack, contour plots, spanwise variation in total-pressure-loss coefficient, variation of … more

Comparison of Performance and Component Frontal Areas of Hypothetical Two-Spool and One-Spool Turbojet Engines

Description: For constant-mechanical-speed operation, the two-spool thrust values are as great as or greater than the one-spool thrust values over the entire flight range considered, while the specific fuel consumption for the two engines agrees within 1 percent. The maximum difference in thrust occurs at Mach 2.8 in the stratosphere, where the two-spool thrust advantage is about 9 percent for operation with the after burning.
