For greater understanding of possible explosion hazards knowledge is needed of the volume of hydrogen evolved in the calcium and magnesium-nitric acid reactions. Measurements of evolved hydrogen are presented in this project.

An investigational drilling project carried out for geological information to determine if several claims near Hite, Utah, warranted an extensive drilling project.

From abstract: "This report presents the laboratory development of the MTR-RaLa Process for the production of barium140 from Materials Testing Reactor assemblies." The laboratory studied four possible chemical schemes with the final process being chosen "on the basis of chemical yield and purity of product, ease of recovery of uranium235, simplicty of equipment, and overall time required for processing" (from introduction).

From introduction: Geodata International, Incorporated, conducted an airborne gamma ray and total magnetic field survey which covered a region of North Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. The specific area of this report as outlined on Figure 1 was surveyed from an aircraft using large-volume radiation detectors with computer-controlled airborne equipment. Each map line was flown in an east-west direction with an average length of 120 miles and each tie line was flown in a north-south direction with an average length of 69 miles. Map lines and tie lines were surveyed spaced at intervals indicated on Figure 2. The data for the total area of Figure 1 were gathered between March-July, 1976.

DOPTAP computer output files for all profile data for the map lines and tie lines surveyed in a report to give the basic uranium, thorium and potassium equivalent gamma radiation intensities, ratios of these intensities, aircraft altitude above the earth's surface, total gamma ray and earth's magnetic field intensity, correlated as a function of geologic units indicated from available geologic maps. Results of analyses of these field data are presented as profile plots of the gamma radiation and earth's magnetic field.

From objective and plan: The airborne data gathered were reduced using ground-based computer facilities to give the basic uranium, thorium and potassium equivalent gamma radiation intensities, ratios of these intensities, aircraft altitude above the earth's surface, total gamma ray and earth's magnetic field intensity, correlated as a function of geologic units indicated from available geologic maps. Results of analyses of these field data are presented as profile plots of the gamma radiation and earth's magnetic field.

Abstract: "The heat of solution of UCl4 solid has been measured and found to change appreciably with changing concentration of H+ or ionic strength. The heat of hydrolysis of U+4 to form UOH+3 is probably of the order of +11 kcal per mole" (p. 1).

Report describing a series of tests performed to review the safety procedures and systems of Hanford Laboratories' N-Reactor.

Report presenting an investigation of an NACA 1-80-100 nose inlet fitted alternately with an elliptical, a parabolic, a 14 degree-inch conical, and a 22 degree-inch conical central body at subsonic and transonic speeds in the 8-foot transonic tunnel. Drag, surface-pressure, and pressure-recovery measurements were obtained at 0 degrees angle of attack through a range of Mach numbers. Results regarding tunnel boundary interference, surface-pressure distribution, external drag, pressure recovery, and propulsive thrust comparison are provided.

An experimental investigation of thermal radiation from the flame of a single tubular turbojet-engine combustor to the combustor liner is presented. The effects of combustor inlet-air pressure, air mass flow, and fuel-air ratio on the radiant intensity and the temperature and emissivity of the flame are reported. The total radiation of the "luminous" flames (containing incandescent soot particles) was much greater (4 to 21 times) than the "nonluminous" molecular radiation.

Report presenting rocket-propelled models flown at transonic and supersonic speeds to determine the effect on zero-lift drag of increasing the leading-edge bluntness of a sweptback wing. Results regarding the total drag coefficient, wing-plus-interference drag coefficients, and force-break Mach number are provided.

Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects on lift, drag, and pitching moment of a reduction of the thickness ratio of a triangular wing at a range of Mach numbers and Reynolds numbers. Removing the outer 24.9 percent of the span of a wing was also explored.

Report presenting techniques for the measurement of the energy spectrum of flow fluctuations in both axial and lateral flow directions. Data indicated that the energy spectrum of the turbulence is not affected by periodic and random sound disturbances outside the frequency containing the disturbances.

Report presenting an approximate, quasi-three-dimensional design procedure adapted to the design of high solidity, impulse-type supersonic compressors. The method is applied to a compressor rotor with a tip speed of 1600 feet per second in air, an inlet hub-tip radius ratio of 0.75, and an axial discharge relative to the rotor. Results regarding the overall performance, rotor-entrance conditions, static-pressure profiles, discharge conditions, and discharge surveys are provided.

Report presenting an experimental study of the compression fields around axially symmetric isentropic spikes with varying degrees of compressive flow turning made at a Mach number of 3.85 to analyze the basic shock structures and thereby establish further design criteria for supersonic-inlet applications. Results regarding the original isentropic spike and cowl, isentropic survey-spike configurations, and external-compression limitations are provided.
