DEGASIFICATION OF NITROGEN FROM SANTOWAX R
The rate of degasificatlon of N/sub 2/ from monisopropyl diphenyl and from Santowax R was studied to determine the effects of various parameters on the vacuum degasification process. The effects of pressure, temperature, feed rate, and spray nozzle type and size were determined. (W.L.H.) 23b0 The moderating properties of organic coolants are directly related to the hydrogen density ot the coolant material. Studies were performed to determine the hydrogen density of four polyphenyl materials as a function of temperature and decomposition. The hydrogen densities at 6O0 deg F were calculated from coolant densities. Graphs of the carbon to hydrogen atom ratios and hydrogen densities as a function of % high boiler for the tour in-pile loop materials are shown. It is shown that hydrogen density increases with decomposition even though hydrogen is lost. Graphs ot the hydrogen density versus temperature for isopropyl diphenyl, diphenyl, 2/3 ortho-, 1/3 meta-terphenyl, and Santowax-R are shown. (W.L.H.)
