(Acidic Deposition: Its Nature and Impacts) (open access)

(Acidic Deposition: Its Nature and Impacts)

The travelers presented papers on various aspects of modeling performed as part of the US National Acidic Precipitation Assessment Program (NAPAP) at the Fourth International Conference on Acidic Deposition: Its Nature and Impacts. The meeting was sponsored by the Royal Society of Edinburgh and was attended by over 800 scientists, primarily from Europe and North America. The conference focused on nine aspects of the nature and impacts of atmospheric pollutants, including ozone: chemistry of atmospheric pollutants; processes controlling the deposition of pollutants; effects of pollutants on soils; physiology of plant responses to pollutants; effects of pollutants in agricultural and natural or seminatural ecosystems; atmospheric pollutants and forests; effects of pollutants on the chemistry of freshwater streams and lakes; effects of pollutants on freshwater plants and animals; and effects of pollutants, indoors and outdoors, on materials and buildings.

Automatic lighting controls demonstration: Long-term results (open access)

Automatic lighting controls demonstration: Long-term results

An advanced electronically ballasted lighting control system was installed in a portion of an office building to measure the energy and demand savings. The lighting control system used an integrated lighting control scenario that included daylight following, lumen depreciation correction, and scheduling. The system reduced lighting energy on weekdays by 62% and 51% in the north and south daylit zones, respectively, compared to a reference zone that did not have controls. During the summer, over 75% energy savings were achieved on weekdays in the north daylit zone. Even in the south interior zone, which benefitted lime from daylight, correction strategies and adjustment of the aisleway lights to a low level resulted in energy use of only half that of the reference zone. Although, in general, the savings varied over the year due to changing daylight conditions, the energy reduction achieved with controls could be fit using a simple analytical model. Significant savings also occurred during core operating hours when it is more expensive to supply and use energy. Compared to the usage in the reference zone, energy reductions of 49%, 44%, and 62% were measured in the south daylight, south interior, and north daylight zones, respectively, during core operating hours …

Preliminary safety evaluation for 241-C-106 waste retrieval, project W-320 (open access)

Preliminary safety evaluation for 241-C-106 waste retrieval, project W-320

This document presents the Preliminary Safety Evaluation for Project W-320, Tank 241-C-106 Waste Retrieval Sluicing System (WRSS). The US DOE has been mandated to develop plans for response to safety issues associated with the waste storage tanks at the Hanford Site, and to report the progress of implementing those plans to Congress. The objectives of Project W-230 are to design, fabricate, develop, test, and operate a new retrieval system capable of removing a minimum of about 75% of the high-heat waste contained in C-106. It is anticipated that sluicing operations can remove enough waste to reduce the remaining radiogenic heat load to levels low enough to resolve the high-heat safety issue as well as allow closure of the tank safety issue.

Physical basis for climate change models (open access)

Physical basis for climate change models

The objectives for this research were two-fold: To identify means of using measurements of the outgoing radiation stream from earth to identify mechanisms of climate change; and to develop a flexible radiation code based upon the correlated-k method to enable rapid and accurate calculations of the outgoing radiation. The intended products are three papers and a radiation code. The three papers are to be on Entropy fluxes and the dissipation of the climate system, Radiation fingerprints of climate change, and A rapid correlated-k code.

Chemistry of bimetallic and alloys surfaces. Progress report, June 1, 1990--November 30, 1991 (open access)

Chemistry of bimetallic and alloys surfaces. Progress report, June 1, 1990--November 30, 1991

We have continued our work on elucidating the underlying principles that govern chemical reactions occurring on bimetallic and alloy surfaces. Our goal is to aid in the atomic level explanation of the reactivity and selectivity of alloy and bimetallic cluster catalysts and to provide a fundamental basis for the design of new catalysts with improved performance. Our approach is to use a battery of surface science methods to obtain fundamental data on the thermochemistry and kinetics of the adsorption and reaction of molecules on extensively characterized, single-crystal bimetallic surfaces. We measure changes in chemisorption bond strength, adsorption site distributions, and hydrocarbon fragment stability and reactivity and correlate these results with the geometric and electronic structure of the metal atoms on the surface. Often, our aim is to carefully design experiments that isolate the several factors (e.g., ensemble and ligand effects) that control surface chemistry and catalysis on bimetallic and alloy surfaces in order to better understand the importance of each contribution. In the past 18 months, we have continued to study how alkali promoters strongly affect the reactions of hydrocarbons on Pt and Ni surfaces by altering the electronic structure and inducing significant site-blocking effects. We have shown that bismuth …

Software quality assurance plan for void fraction instrument (open access)

Software quality assurance plan for void fraction instrument

Waste Tank SY-101 has been the focus of extensive characterization work over the past few years. The waste continually generates gases, most notably hydrogen, which are periodically released from the waste. Gas can be trapped in tank waste in three forms: as void gas (bubbles), dissolved gas, or absorbed gas. Void fraction is the volume percentage of a given sample that is comprised of void gas. The void fraction instrument (VFI) acquires the data necessary to calculate void fraction. This document covers the product, Void Fraction Data Acquisition Software. The void fraction software being developed will have the ability to control the void fraction instrument hardware and acquire data necessary to calculate the void fraction in samples. This document provides the software quality assurance plan, verification and validation plan, and configuration management plan for developing the software for the instrumentation that will be used to obtain void fraction data from Tank SY-101

Field Quality Analysis as a Tool to Monitor Magnet Production (open access)

Field Quality Analysis as a Tool to Monitor Magnet Production

Field harmonics offer a powerful tool to examine the mechanical structure of accelerator magnets. A large deviation from the nominal values suggests a mechanical defect. Magnets with such defects are likely to have a poor quench performance. Similarly, a trend suggests a wear in tooling or a gradual change in the magnet assem-bly or in the size of a component. This paper presents the use of the field quality as a tool to monitor the magnet production of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Several examples are briefly described. Field quality analysis can also rule out a suspected geometric error if it can not be supported by the symmetry and the magnitude of the measured harmonics.

The role of heating and current drive in ITER (open access)

The role of heating and current drive in ITER

This report discusses and summarize the role of heating and non-inductive current drive in ITER as: (1) ITER must have heating power sufficient for ignition. (2) The heating system must be capable of current drive. (3) Steady-state operation is an ``ultimate goal.`` It is recognized that additional heating and current drive power (beyond what is initially installed on ITER) may be required. (4) The ``Ultimate goal of steady-state operation`` means steady-state with Q{sub CD} {ge} 5. Unlike the ``Terms of Reference`` for the ITER CDA, the ``ITER Technical Objectives and Approaches`` for the EDA sets no goal for the neutron wall load during steady-state operation. (5) In addition to bulk current drive, the ITER heating and current drive system should be used for current profile control and for burn control.
