Non-Core Dry Hole Drilling at Cove Mesa, Arizona

Description: Abstract: A drilling program was conducted by the Atomic Energy Commission on Cove Mesa, Arizona to further develop uranium and vanadium ore reserves that are vital to the National Defense. The drilling was performed by the Minerals Engineering Company of Grand Junction, Colorado. Uranium and vanadium ore horizons are found in the Salt Wash member of the Morrison formation on Cove Mesa.

The effects of Reynolds number at Mach numbers up to 0.94 on the loading on a 35 degree swept-back wing having NACA 65(1)A012 streamwise sections

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the effects of a variation of Reynolds number on the forces, moments, and surface pressures on a semispan model of a wing with 35 degrees of sweepback, an aspect ratio of 5, a taper ratio of 0.7, and the NACA 65(sub 1)A012 section in planes parallel to the plane of symmetry.

Results of flight tests to determine the drag of finite-length cylinders at high Reynolds numbers for a Mach number range of 0.5 to 1.3

Description: Report presenting the results of a free-flight investigation to determine the drag of circular, finite-length cylinders for a range of Mach numbers. For supersonic speeds, the drag of circular cylinders was found to be largely independent of fineness ratio and Reynolds number.

An experimental investigation of the zero-lift pressure distribution over a wedge airfoil in closed, slotted, and open-throat tunnels at transonic Mach numbers

Description: Report presenting pressure distributions and Schileren photographs of the flow around a 10-percent-thick diamond airfoil at zero lift in two-dimensional closed, slotted, and open-throat tunnels. Results regarding the effect of slot area ratio and effect of slot spacing are provided.

Investigation of a 10-Stage Subsonic Axial-Flow Research Compressor 2: Preliminary Analysis of Overall Performance

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the overall performance of a 20-inch-tip-diameter 10-stage compressor as the initial step to examine the problems encountered in an axial-flow compressor with a high pressure ratio per stage. The investigation was carried out over a range of weight flows and percentages of the design speed. Results regarding the part-speed efficiency, surge characteristics, overspeed characteristics, compressor discharge Mach number, and stage characteristics are provided.

Design of apparatus for determining heat transfer and frictional pressure drop of nitric acid flowing through a heated tube

Description: "The object of the research project described herein is to present the design basis for test apparatus to determine the heat-transfer and pressure-drop characteristics of white fuming nitric acid flowing in a heated tube section. The heat flux to the tube will be of the order of magnitude occurring in a regeneratively cooled rocket engine" (p. 1).

Bismuth Casting and Canning : (Information Report)

Description: Introduction: The experimental work at Mound Laboratory on bismuth casting and the sealing of aluminum irradiation containers is an outgrowth of the bismuth recovery project. Since the recovered bismuth contains residual activity it is necessary that the bismuth be processed to the point that no contamination will result from shipment or any subsequent operations required to prepare the bismuth for irradiation. In order to satisfy these requirements the work here has consisted of investigating … more
