Production Test IP-168-A, Long term corrosion monitoring and evaluation of operating limits for I & E charges -- C-Reactor

Description: The performance of I & E fuel elements under the original tests{sup 1} was such that they are now being charged at C Reactor on a production basis. Data obtained from the original test, however, were not sufficient to indicate long term corrosion effects of the use of these elements, nor to accurately define their operating characteristics. It is the intent of this test, therefore, to provide for long term corrosion monitoring in tubes charged with and without water-mixing pieces; and to obtain… more

Performance of JP-4 Fuel With Fluorine-Oxygen Mixtures in 1000-Pound-Thrust Rocket Engines

Description: Memorandum presenting seven injectors of four different types that were tested for use with JP-4-oxygen-fluorine propellant combinations. By using the best of the injectors, high characteristic velocities were obtained over the complete range of 0- to 70-percent fluorine in the oxidant. Results regarding injector performance, heat rejection, injector with triplet-jet elements in skewed array, and fluorine addition are provided.

Effect of Dissociation on Exhaust-Nozzle Performance

Description: Memorandum presenting net jet thrusts for stoichiometric hydrocarbon-air, hydrogen-air and pentaborane-air mixtures for equilibrium and frozen expansion in the exhaust nozzle at flight Mach numbers up to 10. Net jet thrusts for equilibrium flow were three to five times that for frozen flow at Mach 10 for the three fuels cited, a hydrocarbon, hydrogen, and pentaborane. Results regarding dissociation energies, reaction rate, residence time, and estimated minimum performance are provided.

Effect of pressure level on afterburner-wall temperatures

Description: Report presenting an investigation conducted on a full-scale afterburner and turbojet engine to determine the effect of pressure level on afterburner-wall temperature. For a given ratio of cooling airflow to afterburner gas flow, the afterburner-wall temperature increased as afterburner-outlet pressure was increased. The results indicated that heat transfer by luminous radiation was not significant any pressure level investigated.

The Nitric-Hydrofluoric Acid Pickling of Zircaloy-2

Description: studied. Acid concentration, bath contamination, and temperature were the parameters investigated. Pickling rates were found to be linear with time. Pickling rates increased linearly with the HF concentration, but variations in the HNO/sub 3/ concentration had little or no effect on the rate. Contamination of the bath with metal ions found in Zircaloy-2 at concentrations below saturation also had little or no effect on the pickling rate. Temperature- dependency studies in the range of 40 to 160… more

Effect of pressure level on afterburner-wall temperatures

Description: Report presenting an investigation conducted on a full-scale afterburner and turbojet engine to determine the effect of pressure level on afterburner-wall temperature. The purpose behind the investigation was to investigate the idea that luminous radiation from nongaseous substances in the afterburner gas stream might be present and vary significantly with pressure.

Effect of Dissociation on Exhaust-Nozzle Performance

Description: Memorandum presenting net jet thrusts for stoichiometric hydrocarbon-air, hydrogen-air and pentaborane-air mixtures for equilibrium and frozen expansion in the exhaust nozzle at flight Mach numbers up to 10. Examinations of the dissociation products involved and the energies associated with them, for the hydrocarbon- and hydrogen-air mixtures indicated that a major portion of the dissociation energy for the hydrocarbon mixture is involved in the carbon monoxide molecule.
