Title: DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A FARADAY-TYPE ELECTROMAGNETIC PUMP

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4116673

Mathematical analysis and optimization led to a design of a Faraday type electromagnetic pump with expected efficiencies of 20 to 50%, depending on the size of the pump. The pump was designed to pump liquid U--Bi at 10 gpm against a head of 100 psi and to operate at lOOO deg F in a radiation environment. (C.J.G.)
