Determination of Aerodynamic Drag Parameters of Small Irregular Objects by Means of Drop Tests

Description: Drag coefficients were determined for various irregular objects such as glass fragments, stones, steel fragments, and spheres by means of drop tests for use in a mathematical model to correlate nuclear explosion blast experiments. Drop tests were also made on small laboratory animals and extrapolated to estimate the drag properties of man. A method was developed to estimate the average drag properties of man from his total surface area. (D.L.C.)

FURTHERSTUDIES ON STERILITY PRODUCED IN MALE MICE BY DEUTERIUMOXIDE

Description: The authors have previously reported that deuterium oxide in the drinking water of either male or female mice produces sterility. An investigation of some of the conditions--with particular reference to time--of deuterium oxide treatment to produce sterile C{sub 57} male mice indicated that the sensitive phase of sperm production centered around the late prophase of meiosis. In some experiments, although D{sub 2}O was almost completely absent during maturation of the sperm, and when the mice ma… more

Reactivity and efficiency trends vs operating trends for C, H, KE, and KW Reactors: 1955--1959

Description: Changes in operation and corresponding changes in the reactivity status of Hanford reactors are the result of a continuing effort to improve operating efficiency. Trends data related to these changes in operation and reactivity have been published previously for the periods from 1950 through 1958. The purpose of this report is to include trends data for 1959. All included data were selected from the sources listed as references on page 48. Bar graphs in the first part of the report show yearly … more

Note on effect of exposure on I & E fuel element rupture rate

Description: The rupture model presently being used by IPD Research and Engineering is the Weibull cumulative distribution function which in the region of interest, the model can be expressed approximately as: F(X) = failure rate in number of ruptures per total number of tubes, P = average tube power, T = average tube outlet temperature, M = exposure a{sub o}, a{sub 1}, a{sub 2}, a{sub 3} = parameters determined from rupture experience. F(X) = a{sub o}P{sup a1}T{sup a2}M{sub a3}. The parameters a{sub 1} = 3… more

UNDERGROUND STORAGE OF LOW LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTES AT THE SAVANNAH RIVER PLANT. ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS

Description: The engineering considerations are given on which the design and construction of tanks for the storage of low-level radioactive waste solutions were based. The tanks have a nominal capacity of 1,300,000 gal each. While conforming to the principle of total confinement, these tanks were built at a considerably lower cost than the tarks designed for storing high-level radioactive wastes. This saving was brought abeut by the elimination of a number of features such as cooling coils and the angular … more

THE ADIABATIC ELASTIC MODULI OF SINGLE-CRYSTAL ALPHA URANIUM AT 25 C. Work completed: January 1958. Partial Report-Metallurgy Program 4.1.16

Description: The 9 single-crystal elastic moduli pertaining to principal crystallographic axes of alpha U at 25 deg C were determined from measurements of high-frequency wave velocities for 21 modes in seven single-crystal specimens, using the phase-comparison method of McSkimin. From the results the elastic compliances, compressibilities, and Poisson"s ratios were computed for the principal axes. Th variations with crystal direction of the stiffness moduli, Young's moduli, and rigidity moduli were plotted.… more

Na{sup 24} ACTIVITY IN THE HFIR PRIMARY COOLANT WATER

Description: Sodium-24, produced by the Al (n, alpha )Na/sup 24/ reaction, has been found in the coolant of reactors using aluminum-clad fuel elements. Methods of calculating the activity due to scdium-24 are outlined. This activity was calculated to be normally 1.4 x 10/sup 5/ to 6 x 10/sup 5/ disintegrations per min per ml. The Na/sup 24/ isotope disintegrates with 2.76- snd 1.38-Mev gammas. (B. O. G.)
