MTX (Microwave Tokamak Experiment) diagnostic and auxiliary systems for confinement, transport, and plasma physics studies

Description: This note describes the diagnostics and auxiliary systems on the Microwave Tokamak Experiment (MTX) for confinement, transport, and other plasma physics studies. It is intended as a reference on the installed and planned hardware on the machine for those who need more familiarity with this equipment. Combined with the tokamak itself, these systems define the opportunities and capabilities for experiments in the MTX facility. We also illustrate how these instruments and equipment are to be used … more

Nitrogen oxide abatement by distributed fuel addition

Description: A screening study was performed on a laboratory scale downfired combustor to determine the effect of various variables on the effectiveness of the reburning process as a technique for NO{sub X} abatement. The objective was to define optimum conditions under which reburning can be used and to be able to compare the reburning performance of our combustor to those reported by others. For this purpose, a statistically designed parametric investigation was conducted to determine how a set of control… more

Verification of shielding calculation on the DIII-D facility at La Jolla, CA: Revision 1

Description: Shielding calculations were performed for the DIII-D facility at La Jolla to independently assess the biological dose from radiation emitted during operation. These calculations for both the fully shielded and bare configurations are in essential agreement with those done by General Atomics. In addition to the basic test problems run by General Atomics, a bare configuration with additional air outside the facility area was calculated. The addition of air to the bare configuration caused the dos… more

Development and application of a mathematical model for the benzene stripping columns in the In-Tank Precipitation (ITP) process

Description: A mathematical model characterizing the operation of the benzene stripping columns in the In-Tank Precipitation (ITP) process has been developed. The model was verified using operations data of two stripping columns, and the model predicted reasonable, conservative values of the height of a transfer unit (HTU) and outlet solute concentrations. The model was applied to predict general operating efficiency of the ITP strippers, and predictions indicate that the stripping columns will be able to s… more

LAPACK Working Note 9: A test matrix generation suite

Description: We discuss the design and implementation of a suite of test matrix generators for testing linear algebra software. These routines generate random matrices with certain properties which are useful for testing linear equation solving, least squares, and eigendecomposition software. These properites include the spectrum, symmetry, bandwidth, norm, sparsity, conditioning (with respect to inversion or for the eigenproblem), type (real or complex), and storage scheme (dense, packed or banded).

Analysis of SRP waste streams for waste tank certification

Description: The Savannah River Plant (SRP) will apply for certification from the State of South Carolina to operate the SRP High-Level Waste Tanks. The permit application will be submitted as a RCRA Part B, Volume 16, entitled ``RCRA Part B Application For the F and H-Area Radioactive Waste Farm.`` RCRA regulations require that influent and effluent streams of hazardous waste sites be characterized to obtain an operating permit. The Waste Management Technology Department requested ADD to determine 21 compo… more

Studies of plasma confinement in linear and RACETRACK mirror configurations

Description: During the period from November 1988 through April 1989 the experimental plasma physics program at UCLA produced several new results. The experiments were conducted on the toroidal RACETRACK device. Generation of a steady-state high-beta field-reversed configuration in one of the straight sections by the rotating electromagnetic wave technique is now routine and because of understanding gained in the course of experiments we succeeded in extending the range of operation was extended. The pressu… more

Removal of organic and inorganic sulfur from Ohio coal by combined physical and chemical process. Final report

Description: This project consisted of three sections. In the first part, the physical cleaning of Ohio coal by selective flocculation of ultrafine slurry was considered. In the second part, the mild oxidation process for removal of pyritic and organic sulfur.was investigated. Finally, in-the third part, the combined effects of these processes were studied. The physical cleaning and desulfurization of Ohio coal was achieved using selective flocculation of ultrafine coal slurry in conjunction with froth flot… more
