Abstract

A radiation-resistant coaxial electrical cable capable of carrying very small currents at high voltages with little leakage is described. The cable comprises an inner axial conductor separated from an outer coaxial tubular conductor by annular layer of fibrous silica insulation. The silica insulation is formed by leaching boron from spun horosilicate glass and then heat treating the silica at a high temperature.

Method and apparatus for low-loss storage of thermal energy and for low-loss withdrawal of the stored thermal energy

Patent Hansen, U.

A mehtod is described for low-loss thermal energy storage in and withdrawal from a heat accumulator connected with an energy source and a heat consumer in a circulatory system through which a heat-carrying flow medium circulates. The method consits of passing the flow medium through the energy source so as to withdraw thermal energy from the energy source and effect absorption of the thermal energy by the flow medium, guiding the flow medium in respective layers within the heat accumulator in a direction from the center of the heat accumulator toward the periphery thereof so as to store the thermalmore »« less
Fabrication of cryostable, low-loss cable for a 3. 8 MJ pulsed superconducting coil

Conference Onishi, T.; Tateishi, H.; Koyama, K.; ... - Proc. Symp. Eng. Probl. Fusion Res.; (United States)

For large pulsed coils such as the ohmic heating coils, great reliability as well as low ac losses is essentially required. Therefore, the cryostability must be achieved not only within the first-level cable but within the final cable. To guarantee cryostability within the final cable, a great deal of stabilizing copper will be required, leading to the considerable decrease of the overall current density. To solve this problem, high-purity aluminum is adopted for stabilizer. To reduce ac losses as much as possible, the mixed matrix is used within the filament bundle of the basic strand and the outer sheath ismore »« less
NEUTRONIC REACTOR CONTROL ROD AND METHOD OF FABRICATION

Patent Porembka, S.W. Jr.

A reactor control rod formed from a compacted powder dispersion is patented. The rod consists of titanium sheathed with a cladding alloy. The cladding alloy contains 1.3% to 1.6% by weight of tin, 0.07% to 0.12% by weight of chromium, 0.04% to 0.08% by weight of nickel, 0.09% to 0.16% by weight of iron, carbon not exceeding 0.05%, less than 0.5% by weight of incidental impurities, and the balance zirconium.
IRRADIATION TRANSMUTATION CAPSULE AND METHOD OF FABRICATION

Patent Gordon, C.M.

A method is described for the fabrication of an irradiation transmutation capsule capable of withstanding high irradiation fluxes. A homogeneous mixture of powdered aluminum and an oxide, fluoride, or a mixture thereof of a target element selected from the lanthanide and actinide elements is compacted within a closed sheath metal sleeve with pressure sufficient to induce plastic flow. This capsule can withstand a thermal neutron flux that produces an amount of heat equivalent to 1000 watts per second per square inch of surface area.
Field desorption ion source and method of fabrication

Patent Heil, H.W.

A gas permeable electrode is arranged to project into an evacuated space with the vacuum side of the electrode coated with a gas impervious material except at the tip of the electrode. The other end of the electrode is exposed to an ionizable gas that is caused to diffuse through the electrode and be ionized at the tip of the electrode on the high vacuum side by an electrical field created between the gas permeable electrode and an extraction electrode in the high vacuum space.
