Automatic Digital Recording of Hanford Reactor Outlet Water Temperatures


Book Description

Instrumentation has been developed which automatically senses thermocouple voltages sequentially at a rate of three per second and records temperatures in digital form as received from an analog to digital converter. The temperatures are typed on a reactor face map and simultaneously coded into perforated tape; data from the coded tape are then transcribed on IBM cards in a form convenient for subsequent calculations. The nearly continuous display of tube power generation has given invaluable assistance in maintaining optimum pile power distributions and the coded data make possible many detailed studies of reactor dynamics, control, and reactivity balances.




Bus Stops


Book Description

“With pleasing design and a multiplicity of details to discover, this variation on the game of ‘I Spy’ is sure to please the youngest.” —Kirkus Reviews “As a bus progresses on its route to the garage, where it will park for the night, various travelers—actors, commuters, families—hop off at their stops. When a number of riders is named (for example, 10 baseball players disembark and head for a playing field), readers can count along, but more often, the text suggests different objects to pick out from each spread. Gomi’s pictures are beautifully composed [and] will appeal to children for their simplicity, and to adults for their strong graphics.” —Publishers Weekly
