Effects of Receiver Slots on Quantity and Quality of Product and Recycle

Abstract: "Variations in receiver slot design produce changes in quantity and quality of product and recycle, not only instantaneously, but also as a function of time in approaching equilibrium. The case of fixed feed concentration and fixed inventory of Uranium is described here for standard and Dip-Lip wider R slot receivers. The effects of the two types of receivers on recycle and product X and W concentrations, X production rate, plant X utilization efficiency, integrated X production and effective mass output are shown graphically."

Flutter and oscillating air-force calculations for an airfoil in two-dimensional supersonic flow

A connected account is given of the Possio theory of non-stationary flow for small disturbances in a two-dimensional supersonic flow and of its application to the determination of the aerodynamic forces on an oscillating airfoil. Further application is made to the problem of wing flutter in the degrees of freedom - torsion, bending, and aileron rotations. Numerical tables for flutter calculations are provided for various values of the Mach number greater than unity. Results for bending-torsion wing flutter are shown in figures and are discussed. The static instabilities of divergence and aileron reversal are examined as is a one-degree-of-freedom case of torsional oscillatory instability.

Magnetic Properties of Insulators : Quarterly Report No. 1 Covering the Period from February 15, 1961 to May 15, 1961

"The magnetic properties of color centers were studied to obtain information regarding electron traps in insulators. Experiments designed to determine the equation governing the recovery of resonance after saturation were carried out. Relatively large samples were prepared by the method of additive coloration. KCl and RbCl crystals were used. Resonance saturation as a function of concentration was investigated and no significant dependence found. Measurements of the unsaturated susceptibility were made at liquid nitrogen and liquid helium temperatures. The bleaching of the F-center to form the B-band produced a different resonance. The equipment for observing the saturation and recovery of a portion of the resonance at 4 deg K is described. A theoretical examination was made of the interaction between the vibration of the ions around a negative-ion vacancy in an alkali halide and an electron trapped at that site. (M.C.G.)."

"The particular integrals of the second-order and third-order Prandtl-Busemann iteration equations for the flow of a compressible fluid are obtained by means of the method in which the complex conjugate variables are utilized as the independent variables of the analysis. The assumption is made that the Prandtl-Glauert solution of the linearized or first-order iteration equation for the two-dimensional flow of a compressible fluid is known. The forms of the particular integrals, derived for subsonic flow, are readily adapted to supersonic flows with only a change in sign of one of the parameters of the problem" (p. 909).
