Global Spent Fuel Logistics Systems Study (GSFLS). Volume 3A. GSFLS technical analysis (appendix). Interim report
This report is a part of the interim report documentation for the Global Spent Fuel Logistics System (GSFLS) study. The technical and financial considerations underlying a global spent fuel logistics systems have been studied and are reported. The Pacific Basin is used as a model throughout this report; however the stated methodology and, in many cases, considerations and conclusions are applicable to other global regions. Spent fuel discharge profiles for Pacific Basin Countries were used to determine the technical systems requirements for alternative concepts. Functional analyses and flows were generated to define both system design requirements and logistics parameters. A technology review was made to ascertain the state-of-the-art of relevant GSFLS technical systems. Modular GSFLS facility designs were developed using the information generated from the functional analysis and technology review. The modular facility designs were used as a basis for siting and cost estimates for various GSFLS alternatives. Various GSFLS concepts were analyzed from a financial and economic perspective in order to provide total concepts costs and ascertain financial and economic sensitivities to key GSFLS variations. Results of the study include quantification of GSFLS facility and hardware requirements; drawings of relevant GSFLS facility designs; system cost estimates; financial reports - …

Determination of bulk diffusion lengths for angle-lapped semiconductor material via the scanning electron microscope: a theoretical analysis
A standard procedure for the determintion of the minority carrier diffusion length by means of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) consists in scanning across an angle-lapped surface of a P--N junction and measuring the resultant short circuit current I/sub sc/ as a function of beam position. A detailed analysis of the I/sub sc/ originating from this configuration is presented. It is found that, for a point source excitation, the I/sub sc/ depends very simply on x, the variable distance between the surfce and the junction edge. The expression for the I/sub sc/ of a planar junction device is well known. If d, the constant distance between the plane of the surface of the semiconductor and the junction edge in the expression for the I/sub sc/ of a planar junction is merely replaced by x, the variable distance of the corresponding angle-lapped junction, an expression results which is correct to within a small fraction of a percent as long as the angle between the surfaces, 2 theta/sub 1/, is amaller than 10/sup 0/.

High-temperature explosive development for geothermal well stimulation. Final report
A two-component, temperature-resistant liquid explosive called HITEX has been developed which is capable of withstanding 561/sup 0/K (550/sup 0/F) for 24 hours in a geothermal environment. The explosive is intended for the stimulation of nonproducing or marginally producing geothermal (hot dry rock, vapor-dominated or hydrothermal) reservoirs by fracturing the strata in the vicinity of a borehole. The explosive is inherently safe because it is mixed below ground downhole from two nondetonable liquid components. Development and safety tests included differential scanning calorimetry, thermal stability, minerals compatibility, drop-weight sensitivity, adiabatic compression, electrostatic discharge sensitivity, friction sensitivity, detonation arrest capability, cook-off tests, detonability at ambient and elevated pressure, detonation velocity and thin film propagation in a wedge.

Thin film battery/fuel cell power generating system. Final report, Task E-4, April 1976-April 1978
A two-year researth program to design and demonstrate the technical feasibility of a high-temperature solid-electrolyte fuel cell is described in detail. A rare-earth chromite, in particular, La /sub 95/Mg /sub 05/Cr /sub 75/Al /sub 25/0/sub 3/ was identified, synthesized by RF-sputtering tested for resistivity, thermal expansion and inertness in contact with yttria-stabilized zirconia, and was found promising as a candidate interconnection material. Films of these interconnection materials have been successfully deposited onto stabilized zirconia tubes by electrochemical vapor deposition (EVD) and the technique has been used to fabricate such films in building fuel cell stacks. Tin-doped indium oxide and antimony-doped tin oxide air electrode current collector materials have been successfully (CVD) chemically vapor deposited, as thin films, onto zirconia tubes. Fabrication procedures for the preparation of thin films of the nickel-cermet fuel electrode and yttria-stabilized zirconia solid electrolyte have been re-verified and improved for use in preparing unit cells and cell stacks on the program. An in-house extrusion technology for porous calcia-stabilized zirconia tubes has been developed and has been used to provide suitable support tubes for component combination samples, unit cell and cell stack sample preparation. Test concepts for component combinations and for unit cells and cell stacks have …

Data accumulation on the methane potential of the coal beds of Colorado. Final report
A two-year project was conducted to gather data that would assist in the evaluation of the methane potential of the coal beds of Colorado. It was found that a number of closed underground coal mines in the State had reported gassy conditions or had experienced fires and explosions of varied intensity and frequency. The majority of such occurrences have been in those areas characterized by coals of relatively low (i.e., below 31%) volatile matter (VM) content. The south half of the Raton Mesa coal region (Las Animas County) and the southeastern part of the Unita region (in Gunnison and Pitkin Counties) contain coals with the lowest percentages of VM, the gassiest producing mines, and the highest grade coking coal in the State. Five active mines in Pitkin County presently are emitting a total of over 8 million cu ft of methane per day. These mines produce the highest quality metallurgical-grade coal in the western US (high-volatile A and medium-volatile bituminous). The gassy coals in these two regions range from Late Cretaceous to Paleocene in age and usually occur in areas related to igneous activity of late Tertiary age. The VM percentages of Colorado coals can be used, with some caution, …

LOFT primary coolant addition and Control Piping System stress analysis
A stress analysis was performed on the Primary Coolant Addition and Control Piping System to determine if it met the conditions of the ASME Code, Section III, for Class 2 components. Results indicate that the Addition and Control System does not meet Section III criteria as the system is now installed. Only hanger (support) modifications are required to bring the stresses within the limits set forth in the Code. A design temperature of 459/sup 0/F was assumed for the analysis. The specified design temperature of 650/sup 0/F has been revised by ECRA's L-5713 and L-5714.

Cadmium sulfide/copper heterojunction cell research. Technical progress report No. 1, September 30--December 31, 1977
An approach for the research effort required to meet the program objective is described, leading to an outline of nine tasks comprising the planned program. Results of effort applied to tasks during the first quarter effort are described. Highlights include fabrication and evaluation of cells in Mo foil substrates, a new chemical etch method which may allow easy, rapid determination of CdS grain diameters in films, and preparation and preliminary evaluation of cell structures on single crystal CdS substrates. Several problems will require special effort in the future: poor adhesion of CdS film to Zn-plated Cu foil substrates and a high incidence of film defects attributed to particle spatter from the CdS evaporation source.

Design and development of a continuously variable ratio transmission for an automotive vehicle. Phase IV. Quarterly progress report
Progress in the design and development of a continuously variable ratio transmission for an automotive vehicle is reported. The Major automotive hydromechanical transmission development problem continues to be the reduction of hydrostatic noise and the project plan, therefore, concentrated on the new hydrostatic module. The potential for achieving acceptably low noise levels in the second generation hydromechanical transmission is to be assessed by comparing the noise levels of the hydrostatic modules for the first and second generation transmissions. A set of twelve test points was selected comprising of road load steady state and wide-open-throttle acceleration at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 mph. The module operating conditions for the two transmissions at each of these twelve points were calculated. Baseline noise data was measured on the first generation module. The results are given testing of co-axial hydrostatic module for second generation hydromechanical transmission will be emphasized. (LCL)

Silicon on ceramic process. Silicon sheet growth and device development for the large-area silicon sheet and cell development tasks of the Low-Cost Solar Array Project. Annual report No. 3, September 20, 1977--September 29, 1978
The objective of this research program is to investigate the technical and economic feasibility of producing solar-cell-quality sheet silicon by coating one surface of carbonized ceramic substrates with a thin layer of large-grain polycrystalline silicon from the melt. During the past year, the cell development task of the low-cost solar array project has also sponsored work leading to the solution of solar-cell-oriented problems unique to silicon-on-ceramic material. This work is described also. Fracture toughness and thermal shock measurements were made on various mullite compositions. The dip-coater experimentation involved using a variety of crucible positions and gas flow rates to improve coating speeds. The construction of the continuous coating facility was completed. Many modifications to the original design have been made to obtain better control of the temperature profile of the coater. An experimental dip-coater has been completed. The goal of this effort is to increase coating speeds to from 0.15 to 0.3 cm/sec without sacrificing material quality. The best slotted SOC cell fabricated to date has a 7.5 percent conversion efficiency (antireflective-coated, AM1, total area 4.1 cm/sup 2/). A standardized cell fabrication process was developed for slotted and unslotted SOC solar cells. Modeling activities have concentrated on three major areas: …
