Cooling water requirements in 212 buildings

This document provides plots of expected rates of heat evolution rates of heat evolution from irradiated metal which may be useful in estimating the cooling water flow required in the the 212 buildings. A comparison of three sources of data found in the Project Handbook is provided. The CN 526 calculations agree very well with the estimates of 16, 32 and 64 days decay periods. CN 526 information was used for calculating the heat evolution rates shown in the following figures, since the data does not cover decay periods under 16 days, and does not include the 93{sup 239} contribution. The expected BTU/Min.(Ton) heat liberation rate vs. cooling time in days for through operating periods is shown. The operating level is taken as 2000 KW/Ton; the BTU/Min.(Ton) liberated may be scaled to higher or lower operating levels by arithmetic ratio. A similar curve in which the cooling water required (GPM/Ton) is substituted for BTU/Min.(Ton) is provided. The metric ton and a water temperature rise of 25{degree}C (45{degree}F) are assumed. The product content of the metal has been substituted for operating level in another plot. The rate of heat evolution is plotted against decay period for various operating times. A base …

Correlation of actual river water analyses with CMX raw water analyses

Data acquired from the sampling of Columbia River water January 11, 1944, is presented. The water was analyzed for temperature, dissolved oxygen, and iron. The results were compared with results from samples attained from selected taps in the C.M.X. building.
