Fast Flux

In April 1985, the operating crews at the Fast Flux Test Facility near Richland, Washington, changed their rotating shift schedule from an 8- to a 12-hour/day work schedule. The primary purpose of the change was to reduce the attrition of operators by increasing their job satisfaction. Eighty-four percent of the operators favored the change. A program was established to evaluate the effects on plant performance, operator alertness, attrition, sleep, health, job satisfaction, and off- the-job satisfaction. Preliminary results from that evaluation program indicate that the 12-hour shift schedule is a reasonable alternative to an 8-hour schedule at this facility.

Blade Cascade

This paper presents the ONERA contribution in a joint experimental program on the aerodynamics of supersonic airfoil cascades. The first part deals with the specific ONERA way of running cascade tests: description of the test facility, the test model, the instrumentation, and data reduction. Then, after a brief theoretical analysis of the ARL 19 cascade, some experimental results are presented and discussed.
