The emphasis during the second quarter has been directed toward the detailed design of the SLEP (Sodium Line Emission Pyrometer) system. Signal-to-noise calculations indicate a better than 1000:1 ratio should be obtained under the expected operating conditions. Five optical access port concepts were evaluated. The optical/mechanical designs of the selected concept are shown for the water-cooled, gas-purged probe, as well as for the etalon spectrometer. The data acquisition system, using an OMA, is also discussed. Following the completion of the design, purchase orders for the various subsystem and components were sent out. As these orders begin to arrive, the assembly, system checkout, and lab test will be performed in the third quarter of the contract. 9 figures, 1 table.
