Maneuver Performance of Interceptor Missiles

Description: "From these preliminary wind-tunnel tests of interceptor missile configurations and the analysis of point defense against ballistic missiles, it is concluded that adequate aerodynamic lift is readily available and should be utilized when operating under high-dynamic-pressure conditions and that more work should be done on controls, either aerodynamic or reaction type, so that the configurations may be trimmed to the angles of attack required to develop the necessary turning force" (p. 5).

Mixing of HRT core and blanket systems through external connections

Description: Adequate mixing (80 lb/min or higher) of the core and blanket high pressure systems can be accomplished either by interconnecting the chemical plant process lines or by connecting the sample access holes of the core and pressure vessels. The cross connection of the chemical plant process lines would probably be the easiest to install and control, but if the stagnant space in the blanket corrosion sample port requires purging it is recommended that a connection between the access holes be made. … more

Development of the Continuous Method for the Reduction of Uranium Hexafluoride With Hydrogen-Process Development. Hot Wall Reactor

Description: >A continuous process for the reduction of uranium hexafluoride to uranium tetrafluoride was developed and proved on a pilot-plant scale. Complete conversion to uranium tetrafluoride was realized by contacting gaseous uranium hexafluoride with hydrogen in a heated, vertical, open-tube reactor. The purity and density of the solid product met metal grade uranium tetrafluoride specifications. Some difficulty with the accumulation of fused uranium fluorides in the tower was encountered, however,… more

Chemical Technology Division Unit Operations Section Monthly Progress Report, February 1958

Description: Calibrations have resulted in conflicting data for the yield of neutrons from a teflon-polonium solution interface. The installation of the continuous DRUHM reaction system is approximately 60% complete. The Fluorox fluidized bed reactor was operated continuously for 12 hr, producing 1.6 Kg of UF/sub 6/. In homogeneous reactor studies, installation of a mock-up for in-pile slurry bomb heat removal tests was completed. From material balances, about 21/2 g of plutonium remain in loop P-1 after re… more

The Prospects for Laminar Flow on Hypersonic Airplanes

Description: The factors which affect the extent of laminar flow on airplanes for hypersonic flight are discussed on the basis of the available data. Factors considered include flight Reynolds number, surface roughness, angle of attack, angle of leading-edge sweepback, and aerodynamic interference. Test data are presented for one complete configuration.
