Biological conversion of organic refuse to methane. Final report, July 1, 1973--November 30, 1976 (open access)

Biological conversion of organic refuse to methane. Final report, July 1, 1973--November 30, 1976

In order to predict accurately the cost of producing methane from urban refuse, studies were initiated on the dewatering of the fermentor residue and the disposal of the residue from the system. Results of the research are reported under the following subject headings: fermentation system; rheological properties of reactor slurry; filterability of reactor effluent; residue dewatering--vacuum filtration; settleability of solids in the reactor effluent; settleability of sludges from centrate treatment; centrifugation of reactor effluent; leachate potential of dewatered reactor residue; calorific value of the reactor residue; residue incineration; the production of panelboards; caustic treatment of digester feed; and, treatment of filtrate--centrate. Appendixes A, B, D, and E are included; Appendix C, which includes computer programs and documentation, is bound separately as Volume II of this report. (JGB)

Storage and flow of solids. Bulletin No. 123; Vol. 53, No. 26, November 1964 (open access)

Storage and flow of solids. Bulletin No. 123; Vol. 53, No. 26, November 1964

Information is presented on: the concepts of flowability of bulk solids and of channels and the flow-no flow postulate; equipment and procedures for testing the flow of bulk solids; and bulk flow equipment design. This information should be sufficient to enable the engineer to design storage plants and flow channels for unobstructed bulk flow. Only an outline of the theory of flow is included. (LCL)

Liquid-metal fast-breeder-reactor program: reference fuel studies. Eighth quarterly report, August-October 1976. [LMFBR] (open access)

Liquid-metal fast-breeder-reactor program: reference fuel studies. Eighth quarterly report, August-October 1976. [LMFBR]

In FY-76, Task 3 of Contract E(04-3)-893 consisted of the following programs: fuel rod chemistry and thermodynamics; fuel rod engineering; fuel irradiations testing and analysis; and reference structural materials. Starting in FY-77, the Fuel Rod Engineering Program was reorganized into other existing G.E. programs under the E(04-3)-893 contract. Continuation of the reports on technical progress of this program can be found under 189 No. SG009, Task 3, or 189 No. SG023, Task 11.

Annual highlights of the National Center for the Analysis of Energy Systems (open access)

Annual highlights of the National Center for the Analysis of Energy Systems

The National Center for Analysis of Energy Systems at Brookhaven has been in operation since January 1976. This first annual highlights report outlines the scope of activities of the Center involving the integrated analyses of technological, economic, environmental, and social aspects of energy at the regional, national, and international levels. The objectives of the Center and major accomplishments of 1976 are described along with a list of active projects and publications. The energy data bases and analytical models used in the course of policy analyses are also described. The major ongoing activities of the Center include: long-range forecasting of energy-economic relationships; regional energy and environmental policy; comparative health effects of alternative energy systems; technology assessment and energy R and D priorities; development of energy-economic environmental models and data bases; R and D strategies for International Energy Agency; and energy technologies for developing countries.

PTA-1: A Computer Program for Analysis of Pressure Transients in Hydraulic Networks, Including the Effect of Pipe Plasticity (open access)

PTA-1: A Computer Program for Analysis of Pressure Transients in Hydraulic Networks, Including the Effect of Pipe Plasticity

The computer program PTA-1 performs pressure-transient analysis of large piping networks using the one-dimensional method of characteristics applied to a fluid-hammer formulation. The effect of elastic-plastic deformation of piping on pulse propagation is included in the computation. The program is particularly oriented toward the analysis of the effects of a sodium/water reaction on the intermediate heat-transport system of a liquid-metal-cooled fast breeder reactor, but may be applied just as usefully to other pulse sources and other piping systems. PTA-1 is capable of treating complex piping networks and includes a variety of junction types. Pipe friction and nonlinear velocity terms are included in the formulation. The program requires a minimum of input-data preparation and is designed to be easily used and modified. This report contains the governing equations, program structure, input requirements, program listing, and other information for PTA-1.

Benchmark Testing of the Finite-Strain Version of the LIFE-III Fast-Reactor-Element Code (open access)

Benchmark Testing of the Finite-Strain Version of the LIFE-III Fast-Reactor-Element Code

A collection of benchmark problems is used to test the finite-strain formulation of the LIFE-III fast-reactor fuel-element code. Analytical solutions for thick-wall cylinders loaded by internal and external pressure, valid for arbitrarily large strains, are presented for a linear viscous material. Similar problems are formulated for a nonlinear material, and numerical solutions are obtained using the Runge-Kutta method for the integration of an ordinary differential equation. These solutions are then compared with the corresponding solutions obtained using the LIFE-III code. With a proper choice of the number of spatial regions and time steps, good agreement is obtained between the two sets of solutions. The results indicate that the structural-analysis portion of the revised LIFE-III is valid for large strains.
