ANALYSIS OF CHECK VALVE DISC MOTION DURING A FLOW TRANSIENT (open access)

ANALYSIS OF CHECK VALVE DISC MOTION DURING A FLOW TRANSIENT

An analysis of the dynamics of a check valve disc under the influence of a flow transient is presented. The impact velocities of the disc and the pressure surge resulting from extinguishing a fluid velocity are predicted. This analysis develops the equations of motion of a simple swing disc check valve from Newton's Second Law. Modifications of the analysis necessary for application to other types of valves are described. The developed equations are progiammed for the Philco-2000 digital computer in FORTRAN as the SLAM Code. The Code input consists of the characteristics of the valve and the flow transient. The output of the code includes the dynamics of the valve disc as a function of time and the pressure surge induced by valve closure. (H.G.G.)

[Basketball player in mid air as others watch him]

Photograph of a North Texas State University basketball game versus West Texas inside a gymnasium. NTSU player number 55 jumps in mid air with his arm extended above him. 8 other players jog towards him, looking up at his hand that is cut out of the shot. Each player wears converse, tall socks, and their respective uniforms. In the background, spectators sit in bleachers and commentators sit behind a courtside table.

CALCULATIONS FOR ZPR-VII UNIFORM LATTICE CRITICAL EXPERIMENTS WITH THORIA- URANIA FUEL IN HEAVY WATER (open access)

CALCULATIONS FOR ZPR-VII UNIFORM LATTICE CRITICAL EXPERIMENTS WITH THORIA- URANIA FUEL IN HEAVY WATER

Calculations are reported relating to the uniform lattice critical experiments performed in the ZPR-VII critical assembly with both THUD and Babcock and Wilcox thoriaurania fuel and heavy water as moderator. Constants appearing in the criticality equation and material bucklings are computed for lattice pitches used. Reflector savings are calcuiated and used in conjunction with experimental critical dimensions to calcuiate geometric bucklings. Analyses are carried out for various experiments, such as measurements of U/sup 235/ and Th-- Cd ratios, water worth, and fuel-substitution experiments. Theoretical and experimental values are compared whenever possible. (auth)

Computer Program for Calculating the Relative Yields of Isomers Produced in Nuclear Reactions (open access)

Computer Program for Calculating the Relative Yields of Isomers Produced in Nuclear Reactions

A three-part Fortran program for IBM 704 computation of the relative cross sections of isomers produced in nuclear reactions is described. The three subprograms compute the partial compound nucleus cross sections and the normalized initial compound nucleus spin distribution, the normalized spin distribution following particle emission, and the normalized spin distribution following gamma emission. The Fortran listing of the program and cards for a sample problem is included. (D.C.W.)

Computer Programs Using Zonal Harmonics for Magnetic Properties of Current Systems With Special Reference to the IBM 7090 (open access)

Computer Programs Using Zonal Harmonics for Magnetic Properties of Current Systems With Special Reference to the IBM 7090

The magnetic vector and scalar potentials, magnetic field components and their derivatives, and flux linkage for single current systems, and the mutual inductance, forces and torques between two such systems, whose axes are coplanar but not necessarily coincident are discussed. Each system may include a combination of coaxial loops, cylindrical or plane annular current sheets, and cylindrical coils of rectagular section. Working equations are listed, following an outline of theory. A discussion of errors and of means for reducing them leads to specific suggestions ior use of the method with any programmed computer. An existing comprehensive program for the IBM 7090 is described in detail. The rate of convergence of the harmonic series depends on the ratio R of the polar radius of the field point to that of the current discontinuity nearest the origin. In some cases the precision reaches 1000 parts per million even at R = 0.95, improving to 1 or 2 parts at R = 0.80. Since the origin is arbitrary, the practical range of the method often includes the whole space that is accessible to experiment. For very close approach to the windings one must resort to elliptic integrai methods or their equivalent. Alternative programs …
