This report describes experimental studies and analyses on the detonation properties of flammable gases that may be present in the waste storage tanks at Hanford, WA. These studies were carried out in the Explosion Dynamics Laboratory, part of the the Graduate Aeronautical Laboratories of the California Institute of Technology (GALCIT). Detonation cell sizes and pressures were measured in the G...

A multi-term theory for solving the Boltzmann equation and a Monte Carlo simulation technique are used to investigate the electron transport in mixtures of molecular nitrogen and oxygen. We investigate the way in which the transport coefficients and spatially resolved transport data are influenced by the amount of O2 in the mixture. This study was initiated in order to obtain the transport data...

High Temperature oxidation of Zircaloy-4 was studied in N2–O2–H2O gas mixtures using labelled 18O2, thermogravimetry, Raman imaging and mass spectrometry. Samples were either exposed to N2–18O2–H2O mixtures, or two-stage oxidised first then H216O - N2 16O2 atmospheres. In the pre-transition, diffusion-controlled regime, mostly steam contributes zirconia formation, while nitrogen-catalysed post ...
