Effect of HRT Core Sample Holder Upon Core Flow Pattern and Pressure Drop (open access)

Effect of HRT Core Sample Holder Upon Core Flow Pattern and Pressure Drop

The measured pressure drop across the reactor core, with the sample holder in place, is 6.9 psi, more than twice the estimated value. Better estimates, based on more rigorous mathematical analysis, should be possible for future problems of this type. The 2% density difference which produced the relatively high velocity of approximately 1 fps, in this experiment, will result from a temperature difference of about 8 C. It is concluded that the bulk fluid temperature near the sample holder will be less than 8 C above the average temperature at the same elevation in the core.

A Systematic Procedure for Preparing Specifications on Electronic Instrumentation and Control Systems (open access)

A Systematic Procedure for Preparing Specifications on Electronic Instrumentation and Control Systems

Abstract. A systematic procedure for preparing purchase specification on electronic instrumentation or control systems has been developed. This procedure results in preparation of specifications which: 1) make it possible to find any particular specification requirement quickly; and 2) insure that no important requirement has been omitted. Details of this systematic specification preparing procedure presented.

Large plasma pressure perturbations and radial convective transport in a tokamak (open access)

Large plasma pressure perturbations and radial convective transport in a tokamak

Strongly localized plasma structures with large pressure inhomogeneities (such as plasma blobs in the scrape-off-layer (SOL)/shadow regions, pellet clouds, ELMs) observed in the tokamaks, stellarators and linear plasma devices. Experimental studies of these phenomena reveal striking similarities including more convective rather than diffusive radial plasma transport. We suggest that rather simple models can describe many essentials of blobs, ELMs, and pellet clouds dynamics. The main ingredient of these models is the effective plasma gravity caused by magnetic curvature, centrifugal or friction forces effects. As a result, the equations governing plasma transport in such localized structures appear to be rather similar to that used to describe nonlinear evolution of thermal convection in the Boussinesq approximation (directly related to the Rayleigh-Taylor instability).

Reduction of laser beam spray at 0.527 (micron)m in an ignition scale length plasma with temporal beam smoothing (open access)

Reduction of laser beam spray at 0.527 (micron)m in an ignition scale length plasma with temporal beam smoothing

We have measured the effect of laser smoothing by spectral dispersion (SSD) on beam spray, transmission and deflection of a 2{omega} (527 nm) high intensity (10{sup 15} W/cm{sup 2}) interaction beam through an underdense large scale length plasma. We observe a 40% reduction of the beam spray when SSD is used, consistent with modeling by a fluid laser-plasma interaction code (pF3d). We measured a decrease in beam transmission with increasing laser intensity, consistent with the onset of parametric instabilities.
