A Nuclear Power Plant Simulator, John Jacob Adams Jan 1973

A Nuclear Power Plant Simulator, John Jacob Adams

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The United States' energy crisis, which has received so much publicity lately, has focused national attention on how we are to meet our energy demands. Proposed energy sources include conventional nuclear power plants, breeder reactor and fusion reactor plants, coal gasification, liquid hydrogen, solar energy, and geothermal energy. All of these except conventional fission plants are still on the drawing board or in the experimental laboratory, and are described briefly. Government and industry are betting heavily on conventional nuclear power plants. ($40 billion already spent by private utilities for 30 operating plants, 60 under construction, and 75 on order.) A …


The Design Of A Digital Data Acquisition System For Jet Engine Testing, Robert Wesley Carter Jan 1973

The Design Of A Digital Data Acquisition System For Jet Engine Testing, Robert Wesley Carter

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This research report documents the various types of Data Acquisition Systems in use for testing jet aircraft engines. The cost trade offs and design considerations are explored for systems which employ a digital computer as the prime recording/processing element. The digital computer has revolutionized the data acquisition field, particularly in the testing of high performance jet engines. Test data can be acquired, processed, converted to engineering units, and out via high speed line printers and cathode ray tubes (CRT's). The data acquisition system operates on-line, and interleaves the random requests for data from multiple test cells by using a specially …


A Study Of The Microwave Reflective Properties Of Aerosols, Paul Edward Speh Jan 1973

A Study Of The Microwave Reflective Properties Of Aerosols, Paul Edward Speh

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This thesis deals with the reflective properties of selected aerosols subjected to microwave radiation. The backscatter cross section of a sphere is developed analytically as a basis for experimental verification. The most pertinent material parameters necessary for maximum reflectivity are discussed and are used to justify the aerosols selected for the experiment. The experimental procedures and the equipment calibration techniques are prefaced by a discussion of the design and the construction of the aerosol chamber and the microwave source apparatus. The experimental results and the calculated backscatter cross section of the aerosols listed are examined. Conclusions are discussed and applications …

A Stormwater Overflow Control Device, Richard Duke Stalker Jan 1973

A Stormwater Overflow Control Device, Richard Duke Stalker

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

On Lake Eola, stormwater runoff has been identified as a major source of pollution. Other lakes in Central Florida are experiencing similar decay due to stormwater runoff. A device has been examined for diversion of the initial flows to treatment before discharge into the lake. A graphical aid was developed to select the proper volume required for the device and was applied to a Lake Eola existing collection basin. A laboratory model was designed and constructed based on the scaled-down version of a collecting basin on Lake Eola. This model was used to demonstrate the concept, as well as, indicate …

A Survey Of Medical Diagnostic Software, Steven Stein Jan 1973

A Survey Of Medical Diagnostic Software, Steven Stein

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The field of medical diagnostic software is reviewed to define its status in the medical profession. This is accomplished in a two-step procedure. The first step is a cross-section of literature on the topic, and the second step is a survey of physicians in a sample area. The cross-section of literature presents some of the more advanced studies which have been conducted on medical diagnostic software. Also presented is an explanation of the logic used in diagnostic software and the results of several test cases. The survey was of physicians in the Orlando, Florida area to define the actual application …

A Simplification Of Underwater Acoustic Equations, Morris G. Middleton Jan 1973

A Simplification Of Underwater Acoustic Equations, Morris G. Middleton

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This Research Report presents some of the equations of underwater acoustics that relate to the signal excess noise received by a transducer. The basic structural equation is developed, as are defining equations for each term in that equation. An analysis is performed utilizing typical values to ascertain if the elements of the structural equation can be simplified. Results delineate that several terms of that equation can be neglected while maintaining a relative high degree of accuracy.


Development Of A Sixteen Line Multiplexer, James H. Stangel Jan 1973

Development Of A Sixteen Line Multiplexer, James H. Stangel

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This report explains the development of a telephone line multiplexer to be used with a computer based personal paging system. The large geographical area coverage made possible by computer processing results in many calls having to cross telephone tariff boundaries. Since system users cannot be expected to pay long distance charges, dedicated lines which cross tariff boundaries must be leased. Multiplexing applied to those leased lines reduces the cost of data transmission, and is, therefore, justified. The design of the multiplexer proceeds from a specification set which is derived from user response requirements. Fundamentally, the response consists in advising the …

Construction Systems For Detached, Single-Story Concrete Block Houses In Florida: Current Practices, Costs And Potential Innovations, Randolph Deshields Mcdonald Jan 1973

Construction Systems For Detached, Single-Story Concrete Block Houses In Florida: Current Practices, Costs And Potential Innovations, Randolph Deshields Mcdonald

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Concrete block single-story detached homes are popular residences in Florida, but construction materials and methods must undergo changes to combat rising prices and material shortages. Those systems with the greatest pressure of price or material shortage will change first. When current costs and methods are examine, it is found that two systems, roof and exterior walls, have the greatest need for changes in the immediate future; and one system, thermal insulation, needs an empirical study. The roof is of materials which are in short supply and rapidly increasing in cost. The study concludes that, with present cost trends, metal frame …

An Evaluation Of Water Softening, James Burr Aton Jan 1973

An Evaluation Of Water Softening, James Burr Aton

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Dynamic modeling is proposed in this paper as a method of developing a computer model to simulate a water softening treatment unit. Information on water softening economics and ion exchange are examined. The development of a dynamic model is oriented toward uniform effluent water quality and operational flexibility. Several methods are presented to determine the reaction rate used in the completely mixed flow reactor's dynamic model. Based on preliminary data the proposed dynamic model would calculate removal rate similar to those found in an existing plant.

A Solid State Vhf Single Sideband Transmitter, Ermi Roos Jan 1973

A Solid State Vhf Single Sideband Transmitter, Ermi Roos

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This research report investigates a unique method of generating single sideband power, which is particularly useful in transistorized transmitters operating at VHF frequencies. Radio frequency power id developed by class C amplifiers, rather than conventional class A or B amplifiers. Currently, VHF power transistors are not well adapted for use as linear amplifiers, and will function far better in the class C mode. A prototype VHF transmitter which develops single sideband power with nonlinear amplifiers was designed and constructed. The transmitter characteristics were measured and analyzed to establish the feasibility of the new design.
