The purpose of this research was to provide the artificial heart design information necessary for the proper development of an implantable nuclear power supply for the artificial heart. A Kwan-Gett hemispherical artificial heant made of silicone rubber was attached to a mock circulation instrumented with pressure, volume and fiow transducers and measurements made of power input to the artificial heant at various locations, source of power losses and efficiencies of the artificial heart under a variety of pumping conditions, volumetric efficiency, pressure required to move the diaphragm of the artificial heat, required motion of the heant diaphragm and pumping characteristics of the antificial heant. The in vitro measurements have been verified by in vivo experiments in calves. The preliminary design of a pumping chamber for the nuclear powered heart has been completed. (auth)

Experimental shock-tube data for the aerodynamic heating at the stagnation point on spherical bodies at superorbital and suborbital flight velocities (U/sub/0) have been compiled from a number of sources and compared to theoretical predictions. It was found that the empirical correlation given by Detra, Kemp and Riddell is remarkably close to a least-squares fit of the data. It is therefore recommended that their correlation be used for continuum flow theoretical predictions of the laminar hypersonic convective stagnation-point heating rate to spherical bodies in the region U/sub/0 - 6000 to 58,000 ft/sec.

It is proposed to study the direct production of electron pairs produced when a high energy proton interacts with the Coulomb field of a nucleus. This process occurs at fourth order in quantum electrodynamics. This phenomena, called trident production when the incident particle is an electron, is characterized by a single incident primary track and three emerging tracks. Accelerator experiments on direct pair production by protons have not been previously reported, due to the small cross-sections at energies less than 100 GeV. However, at an energy of 100 GeV the cross-section for the direct creation of electron pairs by protons in emulsion is about 10{sup -25}cm{sup 2}.

Swelling in prototypic FTR cladding and duct specimens is being determined from a series of three irradiations designed to cover a range of temperatures approximately 800 to 1500/sup 0/F and peak fluences of approximately 1 x 10/sup 22/, 6 x 10/sup 22/, and 1 x 10/sup 23/ n/cm/sup 2/. The length change measurements for the low fluence irradiation have been completed and are summarized in this report. No swelling, only shrinkage, was found in the 20 percent cold worked Type 316 stainless steel cladding specimens. This shrinkage is of the same magnitude and has the same temperature dependency as unirradiated, control samples. Annealed specimens did swell slightly. Details of the experiment and analysis are given.
