Evaluation of Tributyl Phosphate in Jet Mixing Columns as a Solvent for Uranium Extraction From Slurry-Type Ore Feeds

Technical report outlining the physical operability of 30% tributyl phosphate in a hydrocarbon dilutent for the extraction of uranium from more feed slurries. Operability had been satisfactorily demonstrated in jet mixing columns at the pilot plant of the Mallinckrodt Chemical Works. [From Abstract]

Effect of dihedral change on the theoretical dynamic lateral response characteristics of a low-aspect-ratio straight-wing supersonic airplane (open access)

Effect of dihedral change on the theoretical dynamic lateral response characteristics of a low-aspect-ratio straight-wing supersonic airplane

Memorandum presenting the results of a theoretical investigation of the lateral response and stability characteristics of the X-3 research airplane (Douglas Model No. 499D). Included are time histories calculated by a computer showing the effect of various disturbances on the lateral response of the airplane with 0 degrees geometric dihedral and -5 degrees dihedral.

Preliminary studies of a continuous process for the thermal decomposition of uranyl nitrate hexahydrate (open access)

Preliminary studies of a continuous process for the thermal decomposition of uranyl nitrate hexahydrate

At the request of the A.E.C., experiments were conducted on the continuous addition of liquid UNH to a bed of powdered UO{sub 3} in a gas heated pot in the Pot Room of Plant 6 to gather thermal data regarding the continuous decomposition of UNH and to make observations of the physical behavior of such a system. The thermal data indicate that the size and the energy requirements of the equipment required per pound of UO{sub 3} produced would be considerably smaller than for the present batch-wise process. The products of the reactions through all the successive stages were more dense than the products of the present process. The metal yields in the reduction stage were 98.5%, 97.6% and 97.8%. The yield of 98.5% in the one reactor indicates that this process will produce UF{sub 4} capable of producing as high yields as any yet made. The lower yields in the other two cases fall within the present control limits for yield. The determination of the physical and chemical properties has not yet been completed and will be reported shortly in a subsequent paper.
