An error Analysis of R-C Timers (open access)

An error Analysis of R-C Timers

The results of this paper show that a variation is sensing voltage produces an error in timing which increases logarithmically with time interval. Also, variation in supply voltage produces the same type of errors, but the errors are decreased by the ratio of the sensing to supply voltage. An interesting conclusion from this analysis is that if the ratio of supply to sensing voltages is maintained constant, no change in timing will result.

Dispersion Strengthening of Iron-Aluminum Base Alloys: A Feasibility Study (open access)

Dispersion Strengthening of Iron-Aluminum Base Alloys: A Feasibility Study

The feasibility of improving the mechanical properties at 1700-1800°F of oxidation-resistant Fe-Al-Cr alloys by means of a refractory dispersion has been explored. A literature search was conducted, preliminary experimental determinations of properties of the alloy and its oxides were carried out, and certain mathematical relations between dispersion characteristics and metallurgical variables were derived. The results indicate that the alloys can be strengthened sufficiently by using a dispersion with an interparticle spacing of about 2-3 µ. High-temperature native oxides of the Fe-Al-Cr alloy consist largely of Al2O3 and in theory would serve as a satisfactory second phase.

Unit Operations Section Monthly Progress Report September 1960 (open access)

Unit Operations Section Monthly Progress Report September 1960

Measurements of the interfacial tension between water and tributyl phosphate solutions were made for application to the analysis of Marengoni effect in solvent extraction. A 24 hr flame calcination run to product Th02 particles yielded 40% as product and 54% collected from the furnace walls and from a coarse particle trap. The elution rates of uranyl ion from Dowex 21K using sodium nitrate could be approximated by assuming apparent diffusion coefficients of 1.67 x 10^-7 and 1.18 x 10 ^-7 cm^2/sec, respectively for 960µ and 820µ resn while the corresponding apparent coefficients using sodium chloride were 1. 78 x 10^-7 and 1.27 x 1-^-7 cm^2/sec. The reacting surface of ThO2 Universal Match Co. pellets was determined as a function of fraction dissolved. The lead scews and companion nuts from both the multipurpose saw and dejacketing machine were coated with a baked on lubricant. In Zirflex decladding studies using 4.5 M NH4F - 0.5 M NH4NO3, the average dissolution rate of Zircaloy-2 was decreased only 10% when the overhead condensate was withdrawn and 1.0 M NH4OH was added to maintain the volume.

Prediction of Two-Phase Flow From Mixing Length Theory (open access)

Prediction of Two-Phase Flow From Mixing Length Theory

It is proposed in this report to describe a new two-phase flow mixing length model. It consists of treating the two-phase system as a continuous medium and applying to it the methods and assumptions so widely accepted in single-phase turbulent flow. Because it reduces a two-phase problem to an equivalent one in single-phase flow, the proposed model can be readily used to predict the effects of flow rate, channel geometry, and channel direction in two-phase flow.

Analytical Chemistry Division Semiannual Progress Report For Period Ending October 20, 1955 (open access)

Analytical Chemistry Division Semiannual Progress Report For Period Ending October 20, 1955

The development of ionic methods for the determination of corrosive products in the highly radioactive Homogeneous Reactor (HR) fuels has been of major interest in the work of the Ionic Analyses Laboratory. Methods for the spectrophotometric determination of aluminum and for the polarographic determination of iron in HR fuels have been developed. The polarographic determination of molybdenum in uranyl sulfate solutions was studied. A polarographic method for the determination of zinc was developed. A fluorometric method for the determination of microgram amounts of fluoride was studied. Three organic reagents were investigated as precipitants for microgram quantities of zirconium in HR fuel. The automatic photometric titration technique was applied to the determination of thorium and of sulfate. A method was developed for the ion-exchange separation and potentiometric titration of cobalt. The ultraviolet absorption spectra of technetium and rhenium were studied.

Heat Transfer Study for Self-Boiling Radioactive Wastes

The temperature characteristics associated with the handling of self-boiling radioactive wastes from the separations extraction processes in the Chemical Processing Department have necessitated several heat transfer studies. Earlier studies 1,2,3 defined the feasibility of self-concentration in existing waste storage facilities by determining the rate of heat generation from the decay of stored fission products and by defining the rate of heat loss from existing storage tanks to the surrounding soil.

Measured Vibrational Frequency Distributions of Ni, V, Ti, and Ti.67-Zr.33 (open access)

Measured Vibrational Frequency Distributions of Ni, V, Ti, and Ti.67-Zr.33

The BNL cold neutron facility has been used to obtain inelastic scattering cross section data from three first-row transition elements, titanium, vanadium, and nickel, and a random binary alloy Ti.67-Zr.33. From the data, we have computed vibrational frequency distributions exhibit peaks corresponding to major critical points. A comparison of the distributions from the different samples leads to the following conclusions: 1) The shape of the frequency distributions of the b.c.c. metal (V) and f.c.c. metal (Ni) are remarkably similar, the relative positions of the critical points being the same for both; 2) The frequency distribution of the h.c.p. metal (Ti), which has two atoms per primitive cell, shows structure corresponding to acoustical and "optical" modes of vibration; 3) The titanium-zirconium alloy has the h.c.p. structure, and its experimental frequency distribution is similar to that of titanium, except at low frequencies where alloying with the heavier mass zirconium atoms tends to smear out the peaks corresponding to acoustical modes. Measured frequency distributions were obtained for the titanium-zirconium alloy slightly above and below the critical temperature for the phase transition to b.c.c. structure. The frequency distributions in the two phases are different, the most striking feature being a shift of the high …

Measurements of Neutron Resonance Parameters (open access)

Measurements of Neutron Resonance Parameters

The subject of this paper is the experimental and technical aspects of the measurements of nuclear resonance parameters. I will confine my remarks to those reactions induced by low energy neutrons, i.e. neutrons of less than approximately 100 kilovolts. The bulk of these measurements have been performed by neutron time-of-flight techniques, and I will direct my attention to these techniques. The first half of this discussion will concern the apparatus with which these measurements are made; the second part will be a discussion of the various experiments by which these parameters are measured, with an emphasis in both areas of discussion on relatively recent developments in the field.

Internal Target System and Induced Radioactivity at the AGS (open access)

Internal Target System and Induced Radioactivity at the AGS

When the Brookhaven AGS started operation in the summer of 1960 very little experience with targeting in strong focusing proton synchrotrons was available. While it was evident that targeting techniques would differ markedly from those used in weak focusing machines, only actual running experience would set the proper parameters for a truly satisfactory targeting system. It was, therefore, an advantage that temporary targeting devices were used initially. Work on a more permanent system was not started until the summer of 1961, and the first component of the system installed in January 1962. While further refinements are still continuing the essential features of this targeting system have now sufficiently proven themselves in actual operation to remain unchanged. This system in its present form is the subject of the first portion of this paper.
