Addition of inexpensive solar air-heaters to a pre-engineered metal building. Final report (open access)

Addition of inexpensive solar air-heaters to a pre-engineered metal building. Final report

At Mississippi State University a research project was begun in 1976 to investigate the use of site-built solar collectors for heating air in poultry houses. The purpose of this work was to design and test a functional air heater solar collector which would be inexpensive to construct and acceptable to poultry producers. The results reported are an extension of the original concept. The basic concept is to use a pre-engineered metal building for the structure and incorporate the solar air heaters as an integral part of the south facing wall of the building. The outer skin of the building is used as the absorber plate for the collctors. Construction and testing of the solar collectors and heat storage systems are discussed, and the performance characteristics of the site-built solar collectors are described. (WHK)

Adhesion of electrodeposited coatings on U--Ti and Mulberry (open access)

Adhesion of electrodeposited coatings on U--Ti and Mulberry

Quantitative test data are presented for two etched and plated uranium alloys, U-0.75 Ti and mulberry (U-7.5 Nb, 2.5 Zr). Conical head tensile tests showed that the bond between nickel plating and U--Ti was stronger than that between nickel plating and mulberry. Ring shear tests showed that electroplated nickel coatings are more adherent than other coatings applied to U--Ti. Utilizing a newly developed etchant for mulberry, large cylinders of this material were joined to aluminum and then tensile tested. Results showed that the strength of the joint was directly influenced by the taper angle on the mulberry.

Advanced fuel cell development. Progress report, July--September 1978. [. gamma. -LiAlOâ‚‚ electrolyte]

This report describes advanced fuel cell research and development activities at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) during the period July--September 1978. These efforts have been directed toward understanding and improving the components of molten-carbonate-electrolyte fuel cells operated at temperatures near 925 K. The primary focus of this work has been the development of electrolyte structures that have good electrolyte retention and mechanical properties as well as long term stability, and on developing methods of synthesis amenable to mass production. The characterization of these structures and their stability is an integral part of this effort. Synthesis studies have concentrated on the use of low-cost starting material to synthesize ..gamma..-LiAlO/sub 2/, the most stable allotrope of LiAlO/sub 2/ for the fuel cell conditions. Thermal stability and thermomechanical tests were performed on electrolyte mixtures to determine the effect of cell operating conditions on electrolyte tile longevity. A square cell (10.6 cm) with an electrolyte tile containing ..gamma..-LiAlO/sub 2/ was tested. This tile was reinforced by a wire screen. Post-test examination of this cell after 1000 h of operation showed that the reinforced tile was considerably stronger than un-reinforced tiles. Future cells will utilize tiles with metal screen reinforcement.

Advanced laser fusion target fabrication research and development proposal

A research and development program is described that will enable the fabrication of 10/sup 6/ targets/day for a laser fusion prototype power reactor in 2007. We give personnel and cost estimates for a generalized laser fusion target that requires the development of several new technologies. The total cost of the program between 1979 and 2007 is $362 million in today's dollars.

Advances in characterization of materials: alloys and ceramics (open access)

Advances in characterization of materials: alloys and ceramics

The advantages of high resolution electron diffraction and imaging have been revealed in a wide variety of metallic systems, providing insight into the mechanisms of such phase transformations as ordering, spinodal decomposition, grain boundary precipitation, and the martensitic reaction. Structural discontinuities in interphase interfaces (atomic plane ledges) and grain boundaries (plane matching defects) have been identified with high precision, and compositional variations on an atomic scale have been detected, including solute segregation within approximately 10 A of a grain boundary. In the study of ceramics, primary effort has been directed toward the detection of thin intergranular films with notable success. Atomic dimension microledges have also been revealed in crystallization interfaces, polytype boundaries and transformation fronts, and compositional variations near grain boundaries have recently been recorded in lattice images of a Magnesium Sialon. It therefore appears that the technique holds equal promise for analysis of the fundamental mechanisms of crystallization, phase transformation, diffusion and solute segregation in ceramics as well as metallic alloy systems. The work presented here represents some of the potential of high resolution methods and is an initial step towards complete atomic characterization of materials. The most desirable progression of such research should lead to the attainment of …
