Analysis of design is given in chapters on: building and grounds, secondary system, primary system, reactor analysis, shielding analysis, instrumentation, water treatment, health physics, and waste disposal, including figures, sketches, and appendices. Reference is made to drawings and diagrams bound in Volume (II), and in available classified and unclassified reports. (M.H.R.)

Memorandum presenting a generalized analysis of the effects of turbojet propulsion system development and fuel selection on ability of a strategic bomber to perform desired and minimum missions. The variation of bomber performance using a hydrocarbon, boron, or nuclear fuel is discussed.

Memorandum presenting a computation and comparison of the thrust augmentation and accompanying total fuel flow for four afterburner fuels and a rocket. Four turbojet engines burning JP-4 primary fuel and several operating conditions were selected for the analyses.

From Summary: "An investigation was made in the Langley low-turbulence pressure tunnel to determine the effect of size and location of a sandpaper type of roughness on the Reynolds number for transition. Transition was observed by means of a hot-wire anemometer located at various chordwise stations for each position of the roughness. These observations indicated that when the roughness is sufficiently submerged in the boundary layer to provide a substantially linear variation of boundary-layer velocity with distance from the surface up to the top of the roughness, turbulent "spots" begin to appear immediately behind the roughness when the Reynolds number based on the velocity at the top of the roughness height exceeds a value of approximately 600. At Reynolds numbers even slightly below the critical value (value for transition), the sandpaper type of roughness introduced no measurable disturbances into the laminar layer downstream of the roughness. The extent of the roughness area does not appear to have an important effect on the critical value of the roughness Reynolds number."

From foreword: "This report consists of two volumes which comprise the Phase III Design Analysis for the Army Package Power Reactor." The first volume discusses design analysis of the reactor.

From Summary: "A generalized analysis presents the effects of turbojet propulsion system development and fuel selection on ability of a strategic bomber to perform desired and minimum missions. The variation of bomber performance using a hydrocarbon, boron, or nuclear fuel is discussed. With chemical fuel, the effects of refueling are discussed. With nuclear fuel, the nuclear cruise-chemical dash bomber and the nuclear subsonic tug towing a chemically powered supersonic bomber are compared."

This report presents details of the operations of the Savannah River Plant manufacturing division during the month of July 1956.
