ORNL Mortal Recovery Plant: Processing of ORNL Graphite Reactor Fuel Elements During the Period July and August, 1955

From July 7 to August 31, 1955, 20 tons of uranium and 1,200 g of plutonium were recovered in 47 days of plant operation at an average rate of 833 lb/day of uranium and at a cost of $2.60/lb of uranium. Uranium and plutonium recoveries were, respectively, 99.9 and 95.5 per cent.

Aerodynamic Design of Axial-flow Compressors 6 - Experimental Flow in Two-Dimensional Cascades

"Available experimental two-dimensional cascade data for conventional compressor blade sections are correlated at a reference incidence angle in the region of minimum loss. Variations of reference incidence angle, total-pressure loss, and deviation angle with cascade geometry, inlet Mach number, and Reynolds number are investigated. From the analysis and the correlations of the available data, rules and relations are evolved for the prediction of blade-profile performance" (p. 1).
