We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
POWER REACTORS 47 Produced by USAEC's Oak Ridge National Laboratory. For sale by Byron Motion Pictures, at $80.94 per print, including ship- ping case, F.O.B. Washington, D. C. Available for loan (free) from USAEC headquarters, field libraries, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tenn. Cleared for television. This technical film describes a typical in-pile loop experiment in the radiation-corrosion program of the Homogeneous Reactor Project at the USAEC's Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Particular emphasis is given to the equipment and experimental procedures used in evaluating effects of nuclear radiation on corrosion of metals and alloys exposed to an approximation of the environment in a circulating-fuel aqueous homogeneous reactor. THE MANY FACES OF ARGQNNE See page 36 ML-1 MOBILE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT (1963). 26 minutes, color. Produced for the U. S. Army and USAEC (under the technical direction of the Idaho Operations Office, USAEC) by the Lookout Mountain Air Force Station. For sale by Lookout Mountain Air Force Station, at $99.15 per single print, including shipping case, F.O.B. Hollywood. Available for loan (free) from USAEC headquarters and field libraries. Cleared for television. This semitechnical film states the army's logistical need for mobile power, and then shows how that need is partially filled by the design, construction, testing, and field operation of a new transportable power reactor plant, the ML-1. An explanation of the design of this gas- cooled, water-moderated reactor is given. Development of the reactor at the USAEC's National Reactor Testing Station, Idaho, is shown. The design and testing of the turbomachinery takes place at the Army Engi- neer Research and Development Laboratory, Ft. Belvoir, Virginia. The film also covers the training of the operating crews, assembly of the ML-1, checkout and test run, testing of the transportability of the system using mock-ups, simulated transportation of the ML-1 to the field, and its start-up and criticality. NUCLEAR ENERGY GOES RURAL (1963). I4 1 /, minutes, color. Produced by USAEC's Chicago Operations Office. For sale by Anthony Lane Studios, at $57.00 per print, including shipping case, F.O.B. Minneapolis. Available for loan (free) from USAEC headquarters and field libraries. Cleared for television. This film presents the background, planning, and construction of the Elk River Reactor for Minnesota's Rural Cooperative Power Associa- tion. After the rural background and setting are established, the planning of the reactor is shown. Animation is used to explain the principle of the boiling water reactor with conventional superheated steam. A comparison is made with the hot air heating system used in
