Transmitted herewith are three charts showing the temperatures attained at various points of the slugs in a typical tube of a flat ended pile. These charts are based on the latest information available to us on September 15, 1944. They are valid for any power load when the water rate is 21.0 gpm, whatever may be the inlet temperature of the cooling water. A simple method is provided for correcting the curves for deviations in water rate from 21 gpm. There is appended a detailed explanation of their derivation and of the evaluation of the constants involved in their construction. The current discovery that the pile will be self-poisoned by transient fission products means that the true temperature curves will be somewhat flatter than those here presented.
