Title: The dry heat exchanger preconditioner

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:10147217

The dry heat exchanger preconditioner, produced at EG & G Mound Applied Technologies, was tested to evaluate its effectiveness when used in conjunction with a calorimeter. Calorimeter measurements of plutonium heat standards that had been preconditioned were compared with standards that had not been preconditioned. Besides demonstrating the advantages of the preconditioner`s safety and compactness, tests showed that using the preconditioner can result in a time savings (27--39%) without sacrificing calorimeter accuracy. 1 ref.
