30-MJ superconducting magnetic energy storage for BPA transmission line stabilizer (open access)

30-MJ superconducting magnetic energy storage for BPA transmission line stabilizer

The Bonneville Power Administration operates the transmission system that joins the Pacific Northwest and southern California. A 30-MJ (8.4-kWh) Superconducting Magnet Energy Storage (SMES) unit with a 10-MW converter can provide system damping for low frequency oscillations. The unit is scheduled to operate in 1982. Progress during FY 80 is described. The conductor has been fully tested both electrically and mechanically, all of the necessary copper and superconductor has been purchased, and the first production lengths of cable have been fabricated. All major components of the electrical and cryogenic systems except the gas recovery unit have been received, but the refrigerator, converter, and one transformer were damaged during shipment. The dewar is being procured, and the coil support system has been designed. Support work at LASL to prepare for subsystem testing is nearly complete.

124 E 170th St

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording William Ortiz's 124 E 170th St. (for electronic tape, narrator, and percussion). It is a mixed electroacoustic work depicting the Puerto Rican urban experiences the United States: the struggle against the agony of the ghetto and against the imposition of a crushing colonial state of mind. The piece is a summons to awake from the broken English dream and assume the Puerto Rican and Latin American essence that belongs to us. The text was written by two Puerto Rican poets living in New York City: Pedro Pietri and Sandra Esteves. The music largely makes use of Afro-Caribbean rhythms, and involves theatrics.

200 kW pulsed and CW gyrotrons at 28 GHz (open access)

200 kW pulsed and CW gyrotrons at 28 GHz

Pulsed and CW gyrotron oscillators have been designed and constructed for use in electron cyclotron resonance heating in plasma fusion experiments. The tubes are designed for 200 kW output at 28 GHz with beam input of 80 kV and 8 A. The pulsed design has been operated at duty factors of 5% and pulse lengths up to 40 msec. The CW design has produced output of 200 kW CW with an efficiency of 50%. It also operated with 52% efficiency at an output level of 170 kW CW. The tubes are designed for power output in the TE/sub 02/ circular electric mode in oversize (2.5 inch diameter) circular waveguide. Some investigations of mode purity of the output will be described. The design and operation of waveguide components such as bends and mode filters for use with the gyrotrons will be discussed.

700, 100, and 20 hp combustion test facility yearly activity report for the period April 1, 1979 to April 1, 1980 (open access)

700, 100, and 20 hp combustion test facility yearly activity report for the period April 1, 1979 to April 1, 1980

Management and Technical Services Co./ General Electric was awarded the contract to operate, modify and maintain the DOE/PETC 700 hp, 100 hp, and 20 hp Combustion Test Facility. These facilities were designed and built by the Department of Energy at Pittsburgh Energy Technology Center and its ultimate success is the responsibility of DOE/PETC. MATSCO/GE will provide support to assist in the goal of successful operation of this pilot plant facility. The primary objective of the DOE/PETC 700 hp and 100 hp CTF is to establish the practicality of coal oil slurry combustion as a technically, economically and environmentally feasible retrofit technology. The 20 hp CTF is to provide a test bed to evaluate synthetic fuels for its technical feasibility and its effect on the environment. Four series of combustion tests were completed. Coal-oil mixes for all tests were number 6 fuel oil and Pittsburgh Seam Coal. The tests were executed successfully. Operational problems were handled as required without excessive delay of the testing program. Additional studies performed concurrently with the combustion testing included flame studies, stack emissions studies during all tests, standard measurements of equipment wear after each test series and extensive erosion and corrosion analyses of boiler test coupons …

950 for Bob

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Terry Setter's 950 for Bob. He describes this style of composition as "focusless music," which is structured in such a way that the listener always hears an undifferentiated sound continuum, making the smallest changes noticeable. The title refers to the length of the piece (950 seconds) and to Robert Ericksson, to whom the piece is dedicated.
