Douglas United Nuclear, Inc. and the National Defense Program

Description: This report presents the results of an updated study to determine the preparation, schedules and cost for restart of KE Reactor and the subsequent plutonium production and incremental conversion cost of sustained plant operation. The restart of Hanford`s KE Reactor features short startup time, large capacity, low cost, and high purity product. The study shows that KE Reactor can be restarted and achieve full power 7 months after authorization. Prestartup costs are $4,416,000 for labor and mater… more

A Study of Catalytic Oxidation and Oxide Adsorption for the Removal of Tritium from Air

Description: An apparatus and procedure were developed for studying the containment of tritium using catalytic conversion to the oxide followed by oxide adsorption. Data were obtained on the catalytic oxidation of elemental tritium and tritiated volatile hydrocarbons from pump oils between 23 and 538 degrees C. Oxidation efficiencies as high as 99.99997% (decontamination factor = 3.3 million) were obtained for total tritium levels of 1 ppm and a tritiated hydrocarbon level of approximately 0.2 ppb. In addit… more

Experimental Investigations of a Fin Protuberance Partially Immersed in a Turbulent Boundary Layer at Mach 5

Description: Various flow visualization results at a nominal Mach number of 5 are presented for cylindrically blunted, unswept and 60-degree swept fins with and without small clearance gaps, partially immersed in a turbulent boundary layer of about 2.6 inches thickness. In addition, pressure and heat transfer measurements were obtained on the flat plate upon which the fin was mounted. Oil smear, azobenzene and Schlieren flow visualization tests were made.
