Historical record of data on flood control

Description: Last year (1948) during the flood period the flow at Grand Coulee fluctuated widely. 2 PM, June 8, 543000 c.f.s.; 4 AM, June 9, 568000 c.f s.; 2 PM, June 9, 543000 c.f.s.; 2 AM, June 10, 573000 c.f.s. A total instantaneous fluctuations of 37,500 c.f.s. was reported. Now there is installed a new control. This control can keep downstream variation within 500 c.f.s. By lowering the lake level prior to the crest period, the drum gates could be used as flood control (1948 high water basis) the drum … more

Operation of the Hrt Mockup With Boiling Fuel in a Titanium Pressurizer, Run CS-23

Description: The 0.045 m UO/sub 2/SO/sub 4/, 0.036 m CuSO/sub 4/, 0.025 m H/sub 2/SO/ sub 4 solution (HRT fuel composition) was chemically stable during 1,866 hr of operation at 280 C and 1500 psi. The system was pressurized by boiling a 0.4 gpm stream of the fuel in a titanium heat exchanger at 313 C. During cursions were made to pressurizer temperatures above 330 C where two liquid phases were formed. These tests indicated that heavy phase began formation at 325 C (vapor pressure equilibrium temperature) … more

Interim Memorandum Report on Filter Development and Discussion on Availability of Materials

Description: A preliminary report on development of filter paper for use in A.E.C. operations is presented. Filters for use in removing harmful dusts or radioactive matter from the air discharged from various operations or for other uses are described. The main fiber furnished for the paper is a specially treated wood pulp with an addition of asbestos. Filters of higher or lower efficiencies with corresponding changes in static resistance can readily be made by modifying the manufacturing formula. (J.R.D.)

Determination of Thickness of Oxide Film on Phosphor Bronze

Description: The thickness of an oxide film on phosphor bronze helices was determined by first establishing the oxygen content of the helix "as received" and after cleansing with nitric acid. Based on the assumption that the difference between the two values was the oxygen in the film, and that the film consisted entirely of cupric oxide, the thickness of the film was calculated from the density of cupric oxide, weight of film, and surface area of film. A value of 1080 A was calculated as the thickness by t… more

Fission Project Yield of Inert Gases

Description: The final percentage of xenon created by fission in uranium and plutonium is a function of the neutron flux intensity. The flux dependence results because axenon 133 and 135 can be converted to a a stable xenon isotope by neutron capture instead of decaying into cesium.
