Fuel Coolant Thermal Interaction Project. Quarterly progress report No. 1, July 1, 1975--September 30, 1975. [LMFBR]

Description: The objective of the work reported is to experimentally and analytically study the dominant mechanism in fuel--coolant thermal interactions which could lead to vapor explosions. The exploration of mechanisms is focused in two areas: (a) mechanisms responsible for fragmentation in molten metal droplet experiments (including assessment of the validity of the proposed spontaneous nucleation mechanism), and (b) thermal stress initiated fracture as a fragmentation mechanism. Work being performed in … more

1.1-meter bore, 8-Tesla test facility

Description: The design and fabrication of a 1.1-m bore superconducting coil for an 8- T facility at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory are discussed. This facility will provide the backing field required for testing large multifilamentary Nb$sub 3$Sn coils as part of the superconductor development program at Livermore. The magnet measures 1.85 m o.d., is 1.5 m in length, and is solenoid wound in four separate modules. Total cold weight of the assembly is 18,000 Kg. A NbTi superconductor is used throughout with … more

Hyperfine quenching of the 2$sup 3$P$sub 0$ state in heliumlike ions

Description: An estimate is presented of the lifetime of the 2$sup 3$P$sub 0$ state for odd-Z heliumlike ions in the range Z = 9 to 29. An approximation scheme is employed which utilizes the fact that both Z$sup -1$ and (Z$alpha$)$sup 2$ are small parameters for the range of Z under consideration. 1 fig, 2 tables, 14 refs. (GHT)

Atmospheric Release Advisory Capability (ARAC)

Description: The chief purpose of ARAC data acquisition program is to provide site officials, who are responsible for ensuring maximum health protection for the endangered site personnel and public, with estimates of the effects of atmospheric releases of hazardous material as rapidly and accurately as possible. ARAC is in the initial stages of being implemented and is therefore susceptible to changes before it reaches its final form. However the concept of ARAC is fully developed and was successfully demon… more
