A Recirculating Supercritical Water Loop

Description: From Abstract: "A recirculating high-pressure stainless steel loop was developed for the study of heat transfer from small-bore tubes to supercritical water. It was found that under certain conditions, hot spots developed on the test section. The conditions leading to the formation of hot spots were investigated; the results of several runs are tabulated here."

SIR FREEZE SEAL TEST II

Description: Two arrangements of internal components of a freeze seal model were tested in order to determine the hydraulic characteristics. The internal configuration employing cylindrical knitted mesh packings in the connecting pipes proved the most suitable for the Na servicing freeze seal, because these packings are more easily fabricated.

Aerodynamics of slender bodies at Mach number of 3.12 and Reynolds numbers from 2 x 10(exp 6) to 15 x 10(exp 6) 4: aerodynamic characteristics of series of four bodies having near-parabolic noses and cylindrical afterbodies

Description: Pressure distributions and forces for a series of four bodies of revolution having nose-fineness ratios varying from 4 to 10 have been obtained and compared with theory for a Mach number of 3.12, a Reynolds number range of 2x10(sup)6 to 14x10(sup)6, and angles of attack from zero to 9 degrees. In general, a comparison of the experimental data with a second-order theory showed good agreement for the range of variables investigated.
