Analysis of CMX hydraulic data for the Mark 22

Description: The original CMX hydraulic data for the Mark 22 assembly, obtained by L.W. Ridenhour in 1972, is analyzed and documented. Comparisons are made to Ridenhour's working notebooks and summary document, and to the Mark 22 hydraulics manual. Several errors in these documents are corrected. Correlations are given in a form suitable for revisions to the hydraulics manual. The experimental setup and measurements are briefly described, and the original data is compiled in the appendix to this report. An … more

Application of uncertainty analysis of ignition performance to the Engineering Test Reactor

Description: The design of future Engineering Test Reactor (ETR) to demonstrate ignition is complicated by the uncertainties in the projected database for ignited plasmas. Application of uncertainty analysis to ETR design utilizing a figure-of-merit defined as the probability of ignition is presented. Performance evaluation from the uncertainty analysis in density-temperature space can locate an optimum operating window for ignition. 11 refs., 5 figs., 3 tabs.

DART: a simulation code for charged particle beams

Description: This paper presents a recently modified verion of the 2-D DART code designed to simulate the behavior of a beam of charged particles whose paths are affected by electric and magnetic fields. This code was originally used to design laboratory-scale and full-scale beam direct converters. Since then, its utility has been expanded to allow more general applications. The simulation technique includes space charge, secondary electron effects, and neutral gas ionization. Calculations of electrode plac… more

Development of a high-efficiency, high-performance air filter medium

Description: A unique high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter medium has been developed for applications in high temperature and high pressure environments. This filter medium is a composite made from quartz and stainless-steel fibers that have been sintered together. The composite medium has the same efficiency and pressure drop as standard HEPA glass media, but has four times the tensile strength and can operate continuously at temperatures up to 500/degree/C. In a conventional HEPA, the binder burn… more

Test dissolution of Hanford scrap oxide, HRA-40

Description: Two portions from a single sample of Hanford scrap plutonium oxide (12% Pu{sup 240}), account HRA-40, were dissolved in the Separations Technology Laboratory as requested. Test conditions, including oxide-to-solvent ratio were very similar to those used in the process. Both test portions dissolved quite readily in 14M HNO{sub 3}-0.2 M HF in a boiling water bath. Efficient agitation of the oxide in the solvent was instrumental in ensuring quick, thorough dissolution.
