Preliminary Summary of Reconnaissance for Uranium in Arizona

Description: From introduction: A reconnaissance of Arizona uranium deposits was started in October 1950 and continued through April 1951. A total of six man--months was spent by H. C. Granger, E. P. Kaiser, and J. W. Adams. About 40 properties were examined and, of these, six were mapped by plane-table method and six were sketch-mapped. This reconnaissance was not intended as a complete evaluation of all Arizona deposits; other areas and occurrences were not examined during the investigations and are not d… more

Geological Investigation of Mexican Cry Mesa, Lukachukai District, Arizona with Diamond Drilling Recommendations

Description: Abstract: The Salt Wash member of the Jurassic Morrison formation of Mexican Cry Mesa, Lukachukai District, Arizona, was examined to determine size, grade, and distribution of contained carnotite deposits and the possibilities of developing reserves by exploratory drilling. Only three occurrences of carnotite-bearing sandstone were found in 17 miles of rim outcrop. Limited drilling is recommended in the vicinity of these exposures.

The Effects of Atomic Weapons on Glazing and Window Construction. Annex 3.5 of Scientific Director's Report of Atomic Weapon Tests at Eniwetok. 1951. Operation Greenhouse

Description: BS>Various types of wood, steel, and aluminum window construction, glazed with plastic and different kinds of glass, were installed on four sides of a test structure during the greenhouse tests in order to determine their relative resistance to an atomic blast. The degree of protection from flying glass provided by mounting Venetian blinds, insect screens, and 1/4-in. mesh wire netting on the inside of window openings was also determined. The best results seem to indicate that the resistances o… more

Development of Zirconium Alloys. Part 1

Description: A number of alloys of zirconium have been investigated as part of a program aimed at improving the high-temperature tensile strength of zirconium. These alloys include molybdenum, tantalum, tungsten, tin, titanium, and nitrogen alloys. It was found that small additions of molybdenum, tantalum, tin, titanium, and nitrogen appreciably increase the high-temperature tensile strength of zirconium.

An Investigation of Aircraft Heaters 34: Experimental Determination of Thermal and Hydrodynamical Behavior of Air Flowing Between a Flat and a Wave-Shaped Plate

Description: Report presenting an investigation of the thermal and hydrodynamical behavior of air flowing along a passage with one flat side, which was steam-heated, and one wave-shaped side, which was unheated. Two series of tests were conducted, one with the plates in direct opposition and one with the plates slightly separated, which induced turbulence upstream of the thermal boundary layer. Results regarding heat transfer and static-pressure drop are provided.

An investigation of aircraft heaters 36: preliminary investigation of a combustion-type aircraft heater

Description: Report presenting experimental results on the thermal performance of an aircraft combustion-type heater. The performance of the heater with a counterflow and a parallel-flow return passage on the gas side does not appear predictable by use of existing equations. The thermal conductance for the gases within the combustion chamber is predicted to be many times lower than the experimental data indicate.

Effect of Stress-Solvent Crazing on Tensile Strength of Polymethyl Methacrylate

Description: Note presenting an investigation of the loss of strength of tensile specimens of polymethyl methacrylate as a result of stress-solvent crazing at 23 degrees Celsius and 50-percent relative humidity. the materials tested were commercial cast polymethyl-methacrylate sheets of both heat-resistant and ordinary grades from each of two manufacturers.

Statistical Fluctuation of Intensity in Debye-Scherrer Lines Due to Random Orientation of Crystal Grains

Description: Note presenting an exploration of the Debye-Scherrer diagram of a stationary polycrystalline sample, which has an intensity distribution with an erratic line because of statistical irregularities of the crystal grain orientation. The fluctuations of intensity are discussed for the case that the only causes of line breadth are the natural spectral width of the primary radiation and the finite size of the grains.
