Low Speed Wind Tunnel Tests of Several Airfoil Sections Through 360 ° Angle of Attack (open access)

Low Speed Wind Tunnel Tests of Several Airfoil Sections Through 360 ° Angle of Attack

A series of two-dimensional airfoils were run through a complete 360 ° angle of attack range to determine their low-speed force characteristics. The airfoils were chosen in an attempt to vary as many parameters (such as thickness, camber, thickness distribution, etc.) as possible with the limited number of shapes that time permitted. All airfoils tested had lift curves with two distinct stalls and quite similar drag curves between 0 ° and 90 ° angle of attack. The highly cambered sections developed peculiar characteristics in the inverted and trailing edge forward positions, as might be expected. The effective test Reynolds number of 0.81 x 10(6) based on the model chord of one foot.

A Useful Solution for Short Cylindrical Shells and Other Applications (open access)

A Useful Solution for Short Cylindrical Shells and Other Applications

The general solution to the basic differential equation d^4w/dy^4 +4w= -4f(y) is transformed from the primary form treated in most texts to an alternate form in which each integration constant corresponds to one edge condition at y=0. The relationships between the integration constants of the two forms are derived and the values for the transformed functions are tabulated. The particular solution is derived in general and given in unique form for various functional forms of f(y). Matrix notation is used throughout the derivations; however, a knowledge of matrix theory is not need for application of the results.

Removal of Radioiodine from Air-Steam Mixtures (open access)

Removal of Radioiodine from Air-Steam Mixtures

A short-term study was made to investigate the removal of radioiodine vapor from air-steam mixtures as could occur immediately following a nuclear incident in a pressurized water reactor. Activated charcoal traps, designed to simulate a small section of a commercial charcoal canister, were tested at gas velocities of 23.9 to 74.9 ft/min over the temperature range of 75 to 118°C. The iodine removal efficiency was found to range from 99.80 to 99.4% with an average of 99.9%. One test performed at a temperature of 105°C and with gas velocity of 290 ft/min indicated that the iodine removal efficiency was reduced to 99.54%. Activated charcoal exhibits a high efficiency for iodine vapor removal under these test conditions and appears suitable for application in the decontamination of air-steam mixtures.

Some Elementary Results Concerning Escape Probabilities of Particles of Fixed Range Generated in Spheres (open access)

Some Elementary Results Concerning Escape Probabilities of Particles of Fixed Range Generated in Spheres

Some results have been obtained which may be of use in studying the escape of fission fragments from slurry particles which contain fissioning material. Assuming that the fission fragments are of fixed range H, that they are generated uniformly and isotopically in a sphere of diameter D, the escape probability , mean path length, and path length distribution function have been derived.

Eurochemic Assistance Program: Comments by FMPC, dated July 6, 1959, on Eurochemic Technical Documents

The nuclear safety portion of this report is inclined to ignore the factors by which safety limits can be increased. It makes no mention of the control that can be exercised by limiting the assay of the U-235 being processed in the plant. From some of the previous reports, it is apparent that this plant is not anticipating processing U-235 of assay greater than approximately 20%. At this value, many of the numbers that are presented in the tables could be increased markedly. Rough examination indicates that these values all refer to top product U-235. The general discussion is, however, excellent. The references apparently used are those unclassified references with which we are all familiar and think highly of. We would recommend the inclusion of TID-7016.

Uranyl Sulfate-Dovex 21K Anion Exchange: A Literature Survey, Review of Preliminary Data and Outline of a Proposal Experimental Program

The system Dovex 21K and aqueous uranyl sulfate solutions were studied in the solution compositions range: 0-0.005 mol/liter uranyl sulfate, 0.15 mil/liter total sulfate, 0.02 mol/liter H2SO4 (pH 2).It is shown that UO3SO4 and/or UO2(SO4)2-/2 are sorbed on the resin to form R2UO2(SO4)2. It is surmized that these same species are also involved at high uranyl concentrations and pH 2 it is suggested that U2O5SO4, U2O5(SO4)2-/2, and R2U2O3SO4 species may be involved.

Detection of Airborne Beryllium Dust : Monthly Report Covering the Period from May1 to June 1, 1955 (open access)

Detection of Airborne Beryllium Dust : Monthly Report Covering the Period from May1 to June 1, 1955

During this period a prototype gamma ray detection system was assembled and data was obtained on samples of beryllium salts on filter paper under a variety of conditions. Ordinarily either a scaler-register combination or the CRM-recorder combination would be sufficient for obtaining data. Both units have been used here in order to utilize the particular advantages of each system. The scaler-register unit was employed for obtaining precise data over short intervals while the CRM-recorder was used to maintain a check on stability over longer intervals of time.

High-Temperature Properties in Relation to Design (open access)

High-Temperature Properties in Relation to Design

The essential physical and mechanical properties of materials which enter into the design considerations of high-temperature systems have been outlined, and the relationship of these factors to the detailed design of structural members noted. Particular attention is given to the phenomenon of strain-cycling and relaxation, and several engineering devices wherein these effects can markedly influence design are mentioned. Techniques and apparatus for the measurement of strain-cycling and relaxation properties are described and some recent data for Inconel at 1500 F is reported. A brief discussion is presented on design-criterial for high-temperature applications, and it is pointed out that in some high performance devices the considerations of the strain-cycling phenomenon may impose the design philosophy of "steady-state" operation. Some elementary applications of strain cycling data to design are described, and test experience indicates that analytical techniques can be developed for predicting with reasonable reliability of the fatigue life of structures.
