Report presenting wind-tunnel testing to investigate the effect of surface heating on boundary-layer transition on a flat plate. The identification of the onset and end of transition was made by inspection of the curves of surface-tube Mach number reading as a function of length Reynolds number obtained through the transition region.

This is a progress report of the production reactors on the Hanford Reservation for the month of March 1951. This report takes each division (e.g., manufacturing, medical, accounting, occupational safety, security, reactor operations, etc.) of the site and summarizes its accomplishments and employee relations for that month.

The current Relox flowsheet proposes precipitation of plutonium peroxide from IIBP solution concentrated by evaporation to 10 g Pu/1 and ca. 5.5 M HNO{sub 3}. Such a solution might have an Al{sup +++} concentration as high as 0.02 M with stainless steel corrosion product concentrations of the order of magnitude of those found in AT solution diluted to 10 g Pu/l. Methods for the precipitation of plutonium peroxide from this type of solution, either with or without partial neutralization of the nitric acid have been described (HW-20053, pp 4-5). Recent work has been devoted to an investigation of the extent to which aluminum, chromium, iron, and contaminating elements are separated from plutonium by peroxide precipitation.

This report discusses the development of a method for creating leak-proof closures in aluminum sample casings in order to pass a standard bubble-test inspection.

This report follows an investigation on how hydrolysis products of tributyl phosphate (such as dibutyl and monobutyl phosphoric acids, orthophosphoric acid and butanol) effect the tributyl phosphate process for uranium recovery.

A study was made of the stability of tributyl phosphate (TBP) to acids, bases, and UO/sub 2/(NO/sub 3/su)/sub 2/ solutions, and of the chemistry of its decomposition products. The effect of such decomposition products on the extraction behavior of ion of MBP and lines the RAW analyzer and a subsequent reduction of feed flow rate in each case resulted in immediate reduction in losses, as evidenced by the polarographic results. In many such instances, several hours of operation at high waste losses were avoided. A dropping mercury electrode was used for stream analysis, and the RAW solution was analyzed directiy without either dilution or addition of supporting eleclrolyte. Removal of dissolved oxygen and control of temperature were urnecessary. The precision of the method was better than plus or minus 5%, and the accuracy, which is dependent on calibration with a standard solution, was well within the precision value. The calibration curve is linear, for practical purposes, up to approximately 8 g/l UNH or 0.032 lb/gal uranium. (auth)

Report presenting an investigation in the free-flight tunnel to determine the dynamic lateral stability and control characteristics of a coupled airplane configuration with simplified fighter models attached to the wing tips of a simplified bomber model. The configuration is meant to represent fighter airplanes carried on the wing tips of a bomber airplane to provide fighter protection for the bomber or for in-flight fueling. Results regarding the fighters attached with freedom in roll, with freedom in roll and pitch, and with freedom in roll, pitch, and yaw are provided.
