Putman, J L

Ways in which isotope techniques may serve or are serving in the development of nuclear power are given. The application of tracer techniques to the engineering problems of flow and translocation are described. The use of radioisotopes for determination of bulk flow patterns, liquid flow measurements, liquid leak detection, gas now and ventilation studies, gas leak detection, wear and transfer studies autoradiography in metallurgy, chemical analyses, fluorescence spectrometry, thickness gages, level gages, density gages, and flaw inspection are discussed.
