Investigation of Subsurface Isorad Methods, Temple Mountain, San Rafael District, Utah

Description: From abstract: The subsurface isorad method is an attempt to locate areas favorable for uranium ores by the use of contour maps which show localities having greater radioactivity. The construction of isorad maps entails the measurement of the area under the curve of a gamma-ray logo The figures obtained indicate relative amounts of gamma radiation and are used to locate the isorad contours. This work was started at Temple Mountain in the San Rafael Swell area during the spring of 1952. The purp… more

Heat generation in stored Redox wastes

Description: Fission product activities and heat generated by fission product decay as a function of time, in waste solutions obtained by processing uranium irradiated under the present Hanford schedule, were calculated. From these data, curves showing expected heat evolution in stored Redox Process Wastes, during and following filling of the waste tanks, were prepared assuming various modes of operating the plant and various production rates. Total heat available for evaporation of water from the tanks was… more

An Application of the Rocket-Propelled-Model Technique to the Investigation of Low-Lift Buffeting and the Results of Preliminary Tests

Description: "The rocket-propelled-model technique has been applied to the investigation of low-lift buffeting. Results of preliminary tests show that severe buffeting, wing dropping, and normal-force changes occur almost simultaneously near zero lift over a Mach number range near 0.9 on unswept wings 12 percent thick. On unswept wings 7 percent thick, buffeting did not occur; however, mild wing dropping and normal-force changes were experienced" (p. 1).

A transonic wind-tunnel investigation of the effects of nacelle shape and position on the aerodynamic characteristics of two 47 degree sweptback wing-body configurations

Description: Report presenting an investigation in the 8-foot transonic tunnel to determine the effect of nacelle shape and position on the aerodynamic characteristics of two wing-body configurations at a range of Mach numbers. Some of the nacelles investigated included underslung and pylon-suspended nacelles located at the 40 percent-semispan station, submerged nacelles, and wing-tip nacelles. Results regarding the drag characteristics, mass-flow characteristics, schileren photographs, lift characteristics… more
