100-B Area flow analysis (open access)

100-B Area flow analysis

Results of experimental programs indicate that it might be desirable in the future to modify the existing reactors by replacing the aluminum process tubes with tubes made of a zirconium alloy. The zirconium tubes would be more corrosion resistant than the aluminum ones and would also be stronger at higher temperatures. These new tubes would have the same outer diameter as the present tubes (for ease of handling and in order to provide adequate graphite cooling) but would have a thinner wall (since zirconium alloy is both stronger and more expensive than aluminum). The inner diameter of the new tubes would, therefore, be greater than in the present tubes. In addition to the tube change, it might also be desirable to replace the existing solid fuel elements with those known as ``I&E`` alements. These pieces would be similar to the present elements except for a longitudinal hole which would allow the passage of cooling vater through the center. The element would then be Internally and Externally cooled, and would have a more uniform temperature distribution. The combination of the larger tube inside diameter and the central hole in the fuel element would result in reduced friction loss for the reactor …

Acenaphthene solvents for use in Building 313 Frost Test operation (open access)

Acenaphthene solvents for use in Building 313 Frost Test operation

Acenaphtheno is a low-melting organic compound, C{sub 10}H{sub 6}(CH{sub 2}){sub 2}, used as a temperature indicating coating for slugs tested in the Frost Test induction coil. In preparation for this test, slugs are coated by spraying a 12 to 24 per cent by weight solution of acenaphthene in a high vapor pressure solvent on the rotating slug. The solvent evaporate leaving a thin, adherent coating of acenaphthene. This process is completely described in reference 1. To be entirely satisfactory for this use, a solvent must satisfy four requirements. High vapor pressure -- rapid evaporation. Non-flammability. Low toxicity. Carbon tetrachloride, the solvent used at percent, is operationally satisfactory but undersirable because of its toxicity. The purpose of this test is to investigate the suitability of various solvents as substituted for carbon tetrachloride.

Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Refined Deep-Step Planing-Tail Flying-Boat Hull with Various Forebody and Afterbody Shapes (open access)

Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Refined Deep-Step Planing-Tail Flying-Boat Hull with Various Forebody and Afterbody Shapes

From Introduction: "The results of one phase of this investigation, presented in reference 1, have indicated that hull drag can be reduced without causing large changes in aerodynamic stability and hydrodynamic performance by the use of high length-beam ratios. Another phase of the investigation, reference 2, indicated that hulls of the deep-step planning-tail type have much lower air drag than the conventional type of hull and about the same aerodynamic stability; tank tests, reference 3, have indicated that this type of hull also has hydrodynamic performance equal to and in some respects superior to the conventional type of hull. Unpublished tank tests have indicated that the hull models presented in the present paper (with the possible exception of the forebody alone for which data are not available) will have acceptable hydrodynamic performance."
