Machine Calculations for the Analysis of the Plane Immobilized Plasma by Trajectories

Description: Abstract: "The analysis of an immobilized plasma by trajectories for the Cartesian case has been adapted to machine calculation and the results of such calculations are described. Their most surprising features is the thinness of the transition layer between a vacuum and a uniform plasma, which is possible without assuming too extreme physical circumstances."

An Investigation of Scaling of Zirconium at Elevated Temperatures : Quarterly Status Report No. 10; Sept. 2, 1955 to Dec. 2, 1955

Description: As previously reported, zirconium undergoes large dimensional increases after scaling in air in a critical temperature range, 700 degree-1050 degree C. This finding was observed with specimens of a constant thickness (0;062 in.) To study the thickness effect, a number of specimens ranging in thickness from 0.020 to 0.200 in. were scaled in air at a temperature (900 degree C) where the growth is a maximum for a given time. Both cold rolled iodine sheet and forged iodide bar stock were used. to d… more

Air Leakage Through Labyrinth Seals

Description: This report contains the results of tests which demonstrated the feasibility of using graphite labyrinth type seals, i.e., a bushing machined with alternate grooves and lands on the inside diameter to create a sufficient pressure drop to provide a satisfactory seal.

Final Report of Stainless Steel Connector Evaluation

Description: The primary objective of the tests described herein was to determine if the standard five bend connector (drawing H-1-23475) and/or the T. F. Robinson three bend connector (drawing SK-1-20855) fabricated from Type 304 stainless steel tubing would satisfy the requirements of the K reactors. Results of the tests show that the standard five bend connector made from Type 304 stainless steel 0.065 inch wall tubing, in the as bent condition, with either cadmium plated Parker brass nuts and sleeves or… more

Statistical Analysis of Run to Rupture Tests Involving More Than Two Metal Types

Description: In the reference document, a statistical method for analyzing run to rupture tests involving two metal types, a test material and a control standard, is presented. It often happens that more than two metal types are involved in a production test. In this document, the statistical procedure recommended for this situation is presented.

The Coulometric Titration of Plutonium

Description: This work was performed to develop a general chemical method for the determination of small amounts of plutonium in solution. The work showed that a coulometric titration based on the preliminary oxidation of the plutonium to Pu (VI) followed by titration with electrolytically-generated ferrous ion to Pu (IV) was such a general method and was subject to few interferences. The significance of the work is that a chemical determination of plutonium can be made for amounts of plutonium heretofore d… more

Status Report on the K-4 Magnetic Induction Machine

Description: Due to laboratory interest in devices capable of production of high current with short rise times in gaseous discharges (plasmas), an experimental machine has been built and tested to obtain data applicable to the design of a high gradient magnetic induction machine. This machine consists of a condenser type energy storage bank air core coupled to a toroid in which the plasma is produced. It has been used to determine circuit parameters and the effect of these parameters on the plasma.
