Effect of Blade-Surface Finish on Performance of a Single-Stage Axial-Flow Compressor

Description: A set of modified NACA 5509-34 rotor and stator blades was investigated with rough-machine, hand-filed, and highly polished surface finishes over a range of weight flows at six equivalent tip speeds from 672 to 1092 feet per second to determine the effect of blade-surface finish on the performance of a single-stage axial-flow compressor. Surface-finish effects decreased with increasing compressor speed and with decreasing flow at a given speed. In general, finishing blade surfaces below the rou… more

Quarterly report, January 1951--March 1951, Chemical Research Section

Description: The current Relox flowsheet proposes precipitation of plutonium peroxide from IIBP solution concentrated by evaporation to 10 g Pu/1 and ca. 5.5 M HNO{sub 3}. Such a solution might have an Al{sup +++} concentration as high as 0.02 M with stainless steel corrosion product concentrations of the order of magnitude of those found in AT solution diluted to 10 g Pu/l. Methods for the precipitation of plutonium peroxide from this type of solution, either with or without partial neutralization of the n… more

Pile level objectives

Description: At the 100{endash}300 Areas Steering Committee meeting of March 7, following a general discussion of pile level increases, the chairman pointed out the necessity for programming tentative level objectives as far in advance as possible so that the P and Service Divisions may proceed with the planning details incidental to making the necessary equipment changes. A committee consisting of Mr. Warren and Mr. McCullough was appointed to prepare an outline of pile level objectives and to determine th… more
