Characterization of high power flashlamps and application to Nd:glass laser pumping (open access)

Characterization of high power flashlamps and application to Nd:glass laser pumping

Detailed spectral and temporal measurements of the output radiation from Xe flashlamps are reported together with their use in predicting the pumping efficiency of Nd-doped laser glass. We have made absolute spectral-intensity measurements for 0.5, 1.5, and 4.2-cm-bore flashlamps for input powers ranging from 5 to 90 kW/cm/sup 2/ and pulselengths of 600 ..mu..s. Under quasi-stationary conditions these flashlamps emit essentially identical spectra when excited at equal input power per unit-area of the bore. This behavior is characteristic of an optically-thick radiator although it is not completely clear why flashlamps should behave this way. A simple model is also described which accounts for the transient response of flashlamps by characterizing the output spectra and radiation efficiencies in terms of the radiant output power rather than the electrical input power. 23 refs., 16 figs.

Feed Materials Production Center. Final phase-in report volume 1 of 15 operations and maintenance, October 25, 1985--December 31, 1985

The basic purpose of the transition program in the operations area was to obtain a detailed understanding of the FMPC operations with emphasis on equipment and organization, Also considered in this evaluation were several extant conditions at FMPC which may have significant impact on initiatives adopted in the operations area. These conditions are as follows: capital expenditures over the last several years averaged less than 20% of what might be considered minimum to sustain such a facility in a good operating condition; the production load is ramping up placing greater demands on an old facility; the workforce is relatively inexperienced (68% with less than five (5) years) at FMPC; plans are in place to institute major upgrading of FMPC facilities; the RFP described the need for a major effort in the Environment, Safety and Health Area. Considering the above concerns, the transition program was focused in the following areas: Procedures - An inexperienced workforce operating in an atmosphere requiring rigid compliance with more rigorous environmental criteria necessitates clear, concise up-to-date procedures to enhance performance; Training - New equipment, new people and rigorous environmental constraints demand an aggressive, focused training program. Equipment - Site conditions are not conducive to reliable equipment …

Feed Materials Production Center. Final phase-in report volume 7 of 15 legal and contracts management, October 25, 1985--December 31, 1985

The NLO Legal Department consisted of the Counsel, two Attorneys and one Staff level Legal Secretary. The Department responsibilities included all legal support of the FMPC and the subcontract coordination. In the planned reorganization of the NLO Procurement function, subcontract coordination will become the responsibility of Procurement and the legal support in that area will be decreased to consulting. The position of Counsel will be assumed by a Westinghouse Attorney as the incumbent is retiring. A Westinghouse Attorney has been assigned to WMCO on a temporary basis pending final identification of the Counsel. Final resolution of the NLO/WMCO litigation responsibility is pending further discussion. This document describes the tasks which fell into the legal area as part of the transition plan for management responsibility of the FMPC.

Feed Materials Production Center. Final phase-in report volume 8 of 15 engineering and construction, October 25, 1985--December 31, 1985

This transition task focused on a review of the engineering and construction activities at FMPC with the objectives of: (1) Understanding the current organization, its work load, its strengths and weaknesses, and its effectiveness in accomplishing its work. (2) Recommending improvements in organization, training, personnel and interfacing with the DOE. (3) Developing the procedures to be utilized in managing construction work to be carried out under the new Westinghouse/Rust contract that is to take effect upon take over by Westinghouse. This study included Line item Projects, General Plant Projects (GPP), Capital Projects, and Action Requests received by Project Engineering from Maintenance - both for design services and for procuring and following work by outside contractors on certain maintenance jobs. Other engineering services, provided primarily by the Production Technology Department, include direct support of production operations, customer liaison, resolution of product quality problems, and product development. These activities were not reviewed in detail during the transition due to the higher priority on improving Project Engineering performance. Waste Management Projects are reviewed separately in Section 11 of this report.

Feed Materials Production Center. Final phase-in report volume 9 of 15 management control system, October 25, 1985--December 31, 1985

Well planned work is the key to success in managing a project or facility. Many large or small projects have management systems that are excellent in collecting history, such as monthly costs or shipments, while other systems produce spectacular plans for estimated costs and schedules. However, one of the tools for making management decisions is a control system that describes authorized work, schedules near term small increments of the work and identifies all resources that are needed to accomplish the work. That is the planning phase. Then, as the work is in process, the system periodically reports the status of the schedule and the cost. Then a comparison of plan to actual is analyzed and any significant variances are identified for management action, should it be required. The WMCO/DOE contract has included the requirement to implement a management control system known as Cost and Schedule Control System Criteria (C/SCSC), which is a system defined by DOE Orders. Thus, the intent of Task 9 of the WMCO Transition Plan was to study the management control system in place at FMPC and to prepare a plan that would enhance the system. The objective of the revised management control system would be to …

Feed Materials Production Center. Final phase-in report volume 10 of 15 quality assurance, October 25, 1985--December 31, 1985

Studies were conducted of the existing practices of quality assurance at the FMPC. Interviews with NLO personnel within the QA/QC Department and other interfacing organizations were held. Documents generated by the NLO QA/QC Department and operating manuals of various other NLO departments were examined to understand the current QA Program at the FMPC and to develop guidelines for a WMCO QA Program. In addition, Rust QA plans and current quality assurance practices between NLO and Rust Engineering were reviewed. The Kellogg Rust QA Program originates in the Oak Ridge K-R office with a manual of procedures that address the intent of the NQA-1 elements applicable to the activities of a construction organization. This Program will be submitted to WMCO for review as part of the WMCO/Kellogg Rust contract. The results of the NLO studies revealed that NLO organizations, including the QA/QC Department, have not been exposed to the NQA-1 quality concept; and consequently, the NLO organization is not staffed or structured to support the implementation and maintenance of an NQA-1 program. The principal functions of the NLO QA Department are to: (1) audit the NLO operating procedures and QA Plans, (2) collect and report chemical results of the FMPC products, …

Feed Materials Production Center. Final phase-in report volume 11 of 15 waste management, October 25, 1985--December 31, 1985

This volume of the Transition Final Report provides the findings, recommendations and corrective actions for the Waste Management areas developed during the phase-in actions by Westinghouse Materials Company (WMCO). The objective is to provide a summary of the studies and investigations performed by the WMCO Company during the transition period. The Waste Management effort at FMPC was expanded in 1984 when a separate group was formed within the NLO organization. This is considered to be an area where significant increase in priority and effort must be applied to resolve waste management problems and to bring the site in conformity to regulations and the Environmental Health/Safety Standards. During the transition, there was a comprehensive investigation in all areas of air, liquid and solid waste management for nuclear, chemical and conventional wastes. Not all of these investigations are documented in this report, but the information gathered was used in the development of the budgets (cost accounts), programs, and organizational planning.

Feed Materials Production Center. Final phase-in report volume 15 of 15 nine month program plan, October 25, 1985--December 31, 1985

The purpose of the nine month program plan is to document all the activities that are scheduled for January-September, 1986 at FMPC. The intent of preparing the nine month program plan was to prepare a description of authorized work, budget the work on a month-to-month basis and schedule the completion of work. The milestones in the WMCO Transition Plan that included the gathering of FY86 work scope and budget information in addition to issuing the 9-month Program Plan assumed the existence of an existing budget program that priced and budgeted work monthly. In the absence of a budget computer program, an IBM P.C, with extended memory was leased to handle the volume of budget data. The planning concept in the nine month program was based on defining manageable work, scheduling small increments of work, and estimating the resources in labor, material and services required to accomplish the work. Then, as the work plan is implemented, the accomplishments and actual costs are reported against the plan and significant variances are identified for management action, if required. The two work tasks which were scheduled in the Transition Plan for preparing the Nine Month Program Plan were: (1) collect FY86-88 financial data, production …
