REACTOR ENGINEERING DIVISION QUARTERLY REPORT FOR MARCH 1, 1953 THROUGH MAY 31, 1953

Description: Power Breeder Reactor. Conceptual design studies for the Power Breeder Reactor indicate the feasibility of a contained primary coolant system in a package arrangement. One- and two-group calculations are presented in detail for preliminary PBR estimations. A technique for impregnating UO/sub 2/ with NaK has been developed. The resulting putty-type fuel was successfully extruded tbrough a 3/8-in. hole. Data are presented on the fuel element design factors imposed by heat transfer and cooling lim… more

PROBLEMS OF REFINING URANIFEROUS RESIDUES. Progress Report for May 1953

Description: The applicability and refinement of various procedures for the treatment and digestion of C-slags and other uraniferous residues for recovery of U values were studied. The recovery of U from BFC-6 was investigated, placing emphasis on procedures which will not chemically alter the Cu and Sn media. Methods of U recovery from various residues resulting from Na/sub 2/CO/sub 3/ digestion of miscellaneous U-bearing materials, to reduce the U/sub 3/C/sub 8/ content below 0.05%, are discussed.

The Low-Speed Lift and Drag Characteristics of a Series of Airplane Models Having Triangular or Modified Triangular Wings

Description: Memorandum summarizing the lift and drag characteristics of a series of five low-aspect-ratio triangular-wing or modified triangular-wing airplane models. The series consists of three triangular wings of aspect ratios 2, 3, and 4 and two modified triangular wings of aspect ratio 2 with taper ratios of 0.20 and 0.33. The experimental lift and drag characteristics of the five models are compared with existing theory.
