Numerical simulation of the high density approach to laser-fusion

Description: From joint meetlng of the American Nuclear Society and the Atomic Industrial Forum and Nuclear Energy Exhibition; San Francisco, California, USA (11 Nov 1973). Physical processes important to laser-fusion are discussed along with the models of these processes used by the LASNEX code. Arguments are presented to show the validity of diffusion theory and calculational results are compared to a more detailed transport method and to several experimental observations. A study of stabillty and symmetr… more

Evaluation of the use of eddy currents to measure the thickness of nickel plating on carbon steel

Description: The capability of using eddy current techniques to measure the thickness of nickel plating on carbon steel is investigated. Factors examined are the influence of: different plating baths (Watts and Sulfamate), different substrates (A285 and A516 carbon steels), and the effects of using different types of eddy current instrumentation (phase sensitivity versus amplitude sensitivity). The results show that the thickness of nickel plating (for the conditions described) can be measured accurately us… more

Geometry and heterogeneous effects on the neutronic performance of a Yin Yang mirror-reactor blanket

Description: From 5th symposium on engineering problems of fusion research; Princeton, New Jersey, USA (6 Nov 1973). Two-dimensional models and Monte Carlo neutron transport techniques were used to calculate the tritium breeding and energy generation in a mirror-reactor blanket. Results indicate that blanket performance should be quite insensitive to variations in overall geometry as long as there are no large neutron-leakage paths. Injection and leakage penetration can be accommodated as long as the first-… more
