Correlation of Gravity of the Coal Creek Serpentine Mass, Blanco and Gillespie Counties, Texas (open access)

Correlation of Gravity of the Coal Creek Serpentine Mass, Blanco and Gillespie Counties, Texas

Abstract: "Gravitational observations were made of the pre-Cambrian Coal Creek serpentine mass in Blanco and Gillespie Counties, Texas, the geology of which had been mapped previously. The observed gravitational anomalies indicate roughly the depth of the serpentine mass below which it may possibly grade into its parent peridotitic rock. Probable correlation between the gravitational map and the other geologic features of the area is indicated" (p. 151).

The Metallurgy of Beryllium (open access)

The Metallurgy of Beryllium

The following report describes a study by the M.I.T. Metallurgical Project to pursue the quest of producing ductile beryllium, as beryllium has a relatively high strength, good corrosion resistance to water and air and a melting point of about 1230 C, features that make it a great potential value among being one of the most effective of all materials for slowing down neutrons with little tendency to absorb them.

A Comparative Analysis of the Liquid Metal Heat Transfer Systems for WMA (open access)

A Comparative Analysis of the Liquid Metal Heat Transfer Systems for WMA

Introduction. As stated in Report KAPL 116, one of the objectives of the KAPL reactor is "to provide a prototype demonstration of the practical general of electrical power from Nuclear energy using molten sodium as the primary coolant. The reactor will generate steam at a temperature of 550 degrees F and 465 psia, including 90 degree superheat potentially capable of an efficiency of twenty-eight per cent in electrical output." The work reported here is intended to increase the scope and supply an independent check on the heat transfer system analysis that has previously been done. The purpose of these analyses is to investigate the effects on load rating and top reactor temperature.

Aerodynamic characteristics of the NACA 8-H-12 airfoil section at six Reynolds numbers from 1.8 x 10(exp 6) to 11.0 x 10(exp 6)

Report presenting an investigation in the two-dimensional low-turbulence pressure tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of the NACA 8-H-12 airfoil section at four Reynolds numbers. The section lift, drag, and pitching-moment characteristics are presented for smooth and rough surface conditions. Generally, no unusual scale effects are present for either condition.

Design and calibration of a total-temperature probe for use at supersonic speeds

Report presenting a study of the factors involved in the design of total-temperature probes for use at supersonic speeds as applied to the design of an instrument to be used in wind-tunnel calibrations. Tests of the probe showed that the calibration factor required in the conversion of the measured temperature to the true total temperature was 0.992 for a range of Mach numbers.

An Analysis of Supersonic Aerodynamic Heating With Continuous Fluid Injection (open access)

An Analysis of Supersonic Aerodynamic Heating With Continuous Fluid Injection

From Introduction: "The aerodynamic heating problem assumes considerable importance at high-supersonic speeds. Sanger and Bredt (reference 1) have calculated the high-speed aerodynamic forces and equilibrium surface temperature at extremely high altitudes where the molecular mean free path is large (free-molecule-flow region) compared with a characteristic body dimension. The theoretical investigation of Lees (reference 2) on the stability of the laminar boundary layer in compressible flow indicates that the laminar boundary layer is completely stable at all Reynolds numbers at supersonic speeds for a sufficiently low ratio of surface temperature to stream temperature."
