THE ELECTROMAGNETIC PINCH EFFECT FOR SPACE PROPULSION (open access)

THE ELECTROMAGNETIC PINCH EFFECT FOR SPACE PROPULSION

The phenomenon of the electromagnetic pinch effect is used to accelerate ionized gases for space propulsion. Electrical energy, initially stored in capacitors, is discharged across two nozzle shaped electrodes wherein the radial pinch is converted to axial motion of the effected gases instead of confinement at the axis. The gas dynamics of a pinch using the hydrodynamical model of a msgnetic piston driving a shock wave is combined with the electrodynamics of the circuit to calculate the discharge behavior. Experiments on three different electrode designs are discussed and results compared with calculated values. Results are applied to one particular space propulsion system consisting of a nuclear energy source, a space radiator, a turbine-generator, capacitor, and a pinch tube. The specific mission analyzed is a one-way unmanned flight to a Mars orbit, starting from an Earth orbit. (auth)

Steady State Thermal Behavior of Hnpf Sodium Heat Transfer System (open access)

Steady State Thermal Behavior of Hnpf Sodium Heat Transfer System

The performance of the Hallam Nuclear Power Facility heat transfer components was investigated in order to determine the steady-state, part load characteristics under various operating conditions. The complete steady-state temperature distributions, variations of flow rates and heat transfer coefficients throughout the sodium heat transfer systems as functions of reactor load are shown in a series of graphs.

Dissolution of aluminium oxide as a regulating factor in aqueous aluminum corrosion (open access)

Dissolution of aluminium oxide as a regulating factor in aqueous aluminum corrosion

The solubility of aluminum corrosion product in contact with metallic aluminum in deionized water has been determined over the range 80 to 350/sup 0/C. Evidence is presented to show that oxide dissolution results in the formation of a porous oxide on aluminum exposed in refreshed dynamic systems. Dynamic corrosion rate data have been analyzed on the basis of parabolic film growth and a linear oxide degradation process acting simultaneously on the system. The degradation process has been shown to be a function of refreshment rate.

[Photograph 2012.201.B0052.0382]

Photograph taken for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "Only wreckage, Pain Left. Trooper D.R. Stogner, above surveys the damage resulting from a truck-car collision four miles northwest or Moore on SH 74 Friday afternoon. Four persons were injured, one seriously. The truck was driven by Jessie Jack Wilmoth, 28, of 26, NW 11, which pulled off a county road onto SH 74and met a car driven by Jerome Janger, 18, of 800 NE 17. Both men were hurt. Two passengers, below in Janger's car, Thelma O'Brien, 32, of 1315 NW 10, and Virgina Galindo, 31, of 315 SW 11, (standing) were injured. Miss O'Brien suffered serious head lacerations. All, except Miss O'Brien were given emergency treatment at St. Anthony and released. Janger said he was taking his two passengers both employed by a downtown city department store, to Norman where they planned to redecorate a fraternity house. Stogner estimated damage to both cars at $1,000."
