Anisotropic Elastic Scattering of Neutrons (open access)

Anisotropic Elastic Scattering of Neutrons

In an elastic collision the neutron loses part of its kinetic energy to the nucleus with both the kinetic and momentum of the system being conserved. However, for many elements the scattering is not isotropic in the center-of-mass system at the higher neutron energies. Many of the present reactor multigroup codes include anisotropic scattering at the high neutron energies, while many others assume isotropic scattering at all energies. In order to consider some of the effects of including anisotropic scatting, reference is made t the multigroup equation generally assumed for the slowing-down density.

Beryllium (open access)

Beryllium

The information concerning beryllium assembled herein has been selected primarily to provide information that might be pertinent to the design of the ART. The creep-rupture data in the literature have been obtained from vacuum cast and extruded beryllium, rather than from the hot-pressed beryllium which will be used in the ART. A research program is being conducted by the Brush Beryllium Company, under contract to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which will eventually provide the design engineers with data on the high temperature strength properties of hot-pressed beryllium. In the interim, it will be necessary for the metallurgists and design engineers to make judicious estimates and extrapolations from the data available.

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of the Effect of Spin on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 60-Millimeter T-24 Mortar Shell With Several Tail-Fin Configurations (open access)

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of the Effect of Spin on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 60-Millimeter T-24 Mortar Shell With Several Tail-Fin Configurations

Report discussing an investigation to determine the effect of spin on the aerodynamic characteristics of the Army Ordnance Corps 60-millimeter T-24 mortar shell with several tail-fin configurations. Tests were performed at several airspeeds, speeds of rotation, and angles of attack. Under all test conditions, the models were statistically stable and the yawing moment increased with speed of rotation at higher angles of attack.

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of the Effect of Spin on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a 60-Millimeter T-24 Mortar Shell With Several Tail-Fin Configurations

Report presenting an investigation in the high-speed tunnel to determine the effect of spin on the aerodynamic characteristics of a 60-millimeter T-24 mortar shell with several different tail-fin configurations. Tests were made at a range of airspeeds, speeds of rotation, and angles of attack. Results regarding forced-spin tests, free-spin tests, and zero-spin tests are provided.
