Effect of cation exchange on the subsequent reactivity of lignite chars to steam. [108 references]

Description: The purpose of this investigation is to determine the role which cations in coal play in the subsequent reactivity of chars. It is hoped that this investigation will aid in an understanding of the catalytic nature of inorganic constituents in coal during its gasification. It was found that increased heat treatment temperature decreased reactivity. The decrease in reactivity was shown to be due, at least in part, to the changes in the nature of the cation with increased heat treatment temperatur… more

Conceptual design and systems analysis of photovoltaic power systems. Volume II. Systems. Revised final report

Description: Conceptual designs were made and analyses were performed on three types of solar photovoltaic power systems. Included were Residential (1--10 kW), Intermediate (0.1--10 MW), and Central (50--1000 MW) Power Systems to be installed in the 1985 to 2000 time period. Detailed descriptions of each of the three systems studied, descriptions of the necessary subsystems, and discussions of the interfaces between them are presented. Included also are descriptions of system performance and system cost use… more

Energy reserves. [Summary of reserve estimates and economic supply models for exhaustible resources]

Description: There is an increasing concern about scarcity of the world's remaining natural energy resources and, in particular, the future supply of oil and natural gas. This paper summarizes recent estimates of energy reserves and economic supply models for exhaustible resources. The basic economic theory of resource exhaustion is reviewed, and recent estimates of both discovered and undiscovered energy resources are presented and compared. Domestic and world-wide reserve estimates are presented for crude… more

LOFT differential pressure uncertainty analysis

Description: A performance analysis of the LOFT differential pressure (..delta..P) measurement is presented. Along with completed descriptions of test programs and theoretical studies that have been conducted on the ..delta..P, specific sources of measurement uncertainty are identified, quantified, and combined to provide an assessment of the ability of this measurement to satisfy the SDD 1.4.1C (June 1975) requirement of measurement of differential pressure.

Measurement of airborne radioactivity and its meteorolgical application. Part VI. Annual report, 1 August 1974--31 July 1975

Description: Continuous data of the radionuclides 7Be, 32P, 33P, 35S and of fallout, as well as tentative data of the ozone concentration are given for the reporting period. A new Ge(Li) Gamma Spectrometer, permitting the routine monitoring of the fallout composition is described. A method is set forth for the forecast of influxes of stratospheric air to a certain place on the earth surface. The forecasting quality is subjected to continuous checking. A first analysis of the ozone concentration in correlati… more

Considerations in the behavior of aerosols in gloveboxes. I. Models. [Pu aerosols]

Description: Increasing requirements for minimizing aerosol release from gloveboxes and minimizing personnel irradiation in the processing and recycling of reactor grade plutonium necessitate a knowledge of the behavior of aerosols in such enclosures. This paper presents the results of a literature survey concerning aerosols in gloveboxes. The results of some theoretical plutonium aerosol models in simulating glovebox conditions are reported.

Deals magnet concept: applications and development

Description: The important highlights of the applination of the DEALS (Demountable Externally Anchored Low Stress) magnet system to MFE Tokamak devices are presented. Benefits of the concept for the construction of superconducting toroidal field coils are outlined. Emphasis is placed on the application of DEALS to a high field collisional Tokamak device and various design parameters for such a device and the corresponding DEALS coils are listed. An engineering Tokamak of PLT size is described in which the D… more

Test and evaluation of a solar-powered laboratory turbocompressor system for building heating and cooling. Final technical report. [Rankine cycle]

Description: Extensive testing of an available laboratory Rankine-cycle turbocompressor cooling system was conducted over a range of temperatures consistent with present-day flat-plate and advanced medium-concentration solar collectors and at air- and water-cooled condenser temperature levels. Over 700 hours of testing demonstrated the high performance potential of such systems over a wide range of operational conditions and has provided design guidelines and preliminary specifications for future systems.
