Verification of a numerical simulation technique for natural convection (open access)

Verification of a numerical simulation technique for natural convection

The present paper describes a verification of CONVEC2 for single-zone geometries by comparison with the results of two natural convection experiments performed in small-scale rectangular enclosures. These experiments were selected because of the high Rayleigh numbers obtained and the small heat loss through the insulated surfaces. Comparisons are presented for (1) heat transfer rates, (2) fluid temperature profiles, and (3) surface heat flux distributions.

New statistical and non-statistical effects in deep inelastic heavy-ion collisions (open access)

New statistical and non-statistical effects in deep inelastic heavy-ion collisions

The physics of deep inelastic heavy ion collisions is briefly reviewed in the light of the experimental capabilities offered by large Tandem Accelerators. Three aspects are selected for illustration. The first is the problem posed by the angular distributions. The role of quantal fluctuations (diffraction) and of dynamical fluctuations is discussed. The possibility of extracting angular momentum fluctuations from the angular distribution width is pointed out, as well as the way to compare such results with those obtained from gamma-ray multiplicities or angular distributions. The likely sources of angular momentum fluctuations are discussed. The second problem is that of energy dissipation and partition. The experimental evidence from thermal equilibrium is reviewed and experiments to test thermal equilibrium through the measurement of the variance in the energy distribution are suggested. The correlation between energy loss and the mass variance is reviewed in terms of the mass transfer mechanism. Possible ways to determine the mass of the transferred particle are illustrated. The third problem considered is the experimental lack of mass drift in the mass distributions vs Q-value when it is expected on the basis of potential energy considerations. This problem is associated with the fast fragment thermalization and explained in terms …

Tunnel construction for a desertron (open access)

Tunnel construction for a desertron

The tunnel in this model of construction is 3-1/2 feet wide by 5 feet high. It is assumed that the tunnel contains a rail system and guidance system for: (1) An enclosed car used for transport of 2 people and some tools. (2) A magnet mover. This robot could pick up a magnet and transport it at about 10 miles per hour. (3) An alignment robot. The alignment robot would intercept E.M. waves (microwaves, lasers) to determine its position in the tunnel. Then workers could come along inside the tunnel hoop and nail it together and to the floor. The trench would then be back-filled with a 1 foot berm on top. A rail system would be installed and a support stand for the magnet.

Magnetic-field considerations in superferric dipole (open access)

Magnetic-field considerations in superferric dipole

Iron dominated magnets are characterized in the limit of infinite permeability by a pole shape that is a magnetic equipotential. Deviations from this ideal because of finite permeability are associated with differences in path length, local saturation, flux concentration in slotted pole if crenellation is used, and sub surface voids. For moderate field levels the variation in flux path length throughout the iron lowers the magnetic potential on the iron surface more for the longer paths. As the excitation increases the permeability is lowered in regions of high flux density. Crenellation in this region offers some degree of control over the permeability by concentrating the flux. To a lesser degree sub surface voids can be used to control the reluctance of a flux path. The net result suggests that the shape of the effective air gap can be adjusted to be a magnetic equipotential sensibly equivalent to the ideal pole shape for infinite permeability.

SEACC: the systems engineering and analysis computer code for small wind systems (open access)

SEACC: the systems engineering and analysis computer code for small wind systems

The systems engineering and analysis (SEA) computer program (code) evaluates complete horizontal-axis SWECS performance. Rotor power output as a function of wind speed and energy production at various wind regions are predicted by the code. Efficiencies of components such as gearbox, electric generators, rectifiers, electronic inverters, and batteries can be included in the evaluation process to reflect the complete system performance. Parametric studies can be carried out for blade design characteristics such as airfoil series, taper rate, twist degrees and pitch setting; and for geometry such as rotor radius, hub radius, number of blades, coning angle, rotor rpm, etc. Design tradeoffs can also be performed to optimize system configurations for constant rpm, constant tip speed ratio and rpm-specific rotors. SWECS energy supply as compared to the load demand for each hour of the day and during each session of the year can be assessed by the code if the diurnal wind and load distributions are known. Also available during each run of the code is blade aerodynamic loading information.

Improved generator for use with low-speed rotating machines. Final report (open access)

Improved generator for use with low-speed rotating machines. Final report

The goal of this project was to construct a low-technology, maintenance-free dc electrical generator suited for use with low-speed rotating machines such as windmills or waterwheels. The generator consists of permanent magnets affixed to the circumference of the rotating device, and stationary coils mounted on a semicircular frame. As the device rotates, the magnets move past the coils and magnetically induce an ac voltage in the coils. This voltage is rectified and stored in a battery. No gears, belts, or brushes are used, so the generator operates quietly and without maintenance. The purpose of mounting the magnets at the circumference of the rotating device is to achieve high relative velocities between magnets and coils even at slow rotations, in the hope of extracting energy from very light winds or slowly flowing water. Such a generator was constructed as part of a ten-foot-diameter windmill to test the concept. The generator easily reaches charging voltages at low speeds, and operates quietly without mechanical wear. But the charging current is very low in comparison to a wind turbine of conventional design. The experiment allows fundamental design problems to be identified.

Geothermal Project. Final report (open access)

Geothermal Project. Final report

The project was designed to take 95/sup 0/F water from an existing well and process it through a heat exchanger carrying supply water for our boiler make up and domestic hot water systems. The temperature of this water runs from 55/sup 0/F to 65/sup 0/F. In operation it was possible to raise the temperature of this water an average of approximately 12/sup 0/F. The amount of energy captured was recorded and it was found that one can capture approximately 199 x 10/sup 6/ Btu/Mo. Using current energy costs and a boiler efficiency factor of .8 a potential annual savings of approximately $11,104/year was calculated. The total cost of the project was $31,893.68. Using these figures a simple pay back period of 2.9 years was calculated.

Report to the Congress on alternative financing of the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Plant Project (open access)

Report to the Congress on alternative financing of the Clinch River Breeder Reactor Plant Project

The Utility Task Force report found that there is a wide range of possible alternatives for funding a portion of the CRBRP costs which could reduce Federal outlay requirements and attract significant private sector participation. These alternatives range from off-budget Federal guaranteed project financing, to traditional financing of the market value of the plant. The Task Force report considers the family of concepts that are based on seeking private investment commensurate with the market value of the CRBRP as the most viable alternative funding approach although it may be necessary to augment this concept with others of the discussed alternatives depending on the amount of private funding required.
