Test Cells

The present aerodynamic study of “hangar” type engine test cells originated with a request for assistance following difficulties experienced in the commissioning of a Dart engine-test facility. The major improvements obtained resulted from a systematic programme aimed at understanding the basic problems involved. Extensive use was made of model techniques during this investigation.Detailed flow studies in two other hangar type cells, in successful operation, disclosed certain vortex features which were common to all three cells. Hence in view of a dearth of information on the aerodynamics of such cells, it was decided to deal with the general design problem and to sup-port the study with selected results from the experimental work referred to previously.

Insight Into

One of the major materials problems encountered in the development of fast breeder reactors for commercial power generation is the phenomenon of swelling in core structural components and fuel cladding. This volume expansion, which is due to the retention of lattice vacancies by agglomeration into large polyhedral clusters (voids), may amount to ten percent or greater at goal fluences in some austenitic stainless steels. From a design standpoint, this is an undesirable situation, and it is necessary to obtain experimental confirmation that such excessive volume expansion will not occur in materials selected for core applications in the Fast Flux Test Facility, the prototypic LMFBR now under construction at the Hanford Engineering Development Laboratory (HEDL). The HEDL JEM-1000 1 MeV electron microscope is being used to provide an insight into trends of radiation damage accumulation in stainless steels, since it is possible to produce atom displacements at an accelerated rate with 1 MeV electrons, while the specimen is under continuous observation.
