A Circular Active Reflector Atenna (Cara), Energy Distribution Calculations, And An Experimental Test, Larry V. Knight, George H. Barry Mar 1975

A Circular Active Reflector Atenna (Cara), Energy Distribution Calculations, And An Experimental Test, Larry V. Knight, George H. Barry

Faculty Publications

Conventional high-frequency (HF) circular phased arrays, such as the Wullenweber circular array, have a cost factor that increases at a greater-than-square law rate as its radius is increased to produce larger apertures. A new method of forming simultaneous beams in an HF circular array has been proposed in which beams are formed in the space within the array from pickup element energy that has been amplified and reradiated. Such a device is called a circular active reflector antenna (CARA), and its cost increases at a substantially linear rate as its radius is increased to form larger apertures. This paper describes …

Electrochemical Reduction Of Molybdate In The Presence Of Zinc Chloride In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, R. Cvetkovic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen Jan 1975

Electrochemical Reduction Of Molybdate In The Presence Of Zinc Chloride In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, R. Cvetkovic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen

Faculty Publications

Two chronopotentiometric waves were observed for the electrochemical reduction of molybdate in the presence of zinc chloride, with quarter-wave potentials of –1.5V and –1.75V vs. the Pt(II)/Pt reference electrode, respectively. It was observed that an increase in the molybdate concentration causes a decrease of the first transition time indicating a chemical reaction between ZnCl2 (which is reduced at –1.5V) and Li2MoO4 in the melt forming ZnMoO4 which is sparingly dissociated in LiCl-KCl eutectic. The equilibrium constant for the observed reaction was calculated. X-ray powder diffraction patterns of the reduction product of ZnMoO4 have been …

An Intensity-Dependent Filter, James M. Thorne, Thomas R. Loree, George Mccall Jun 1973

An Intensity-Dependent Filter, James M. Thorne, Thomas R. Loree, George Mccall

Faculty Publications

It is useful in optically driven Kerr-cell shutters and other laser applications to have intense pulses with extremely low light levels between pulses. We describe here a device that accomplishes this objective external to the laser cavity.

Electrochemical Reduction Of Molybdenum(Vi) Compounds In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen Jan 1973

Electrochemical Reduction Of Molybdenum(Vi) Compounds In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen

Faculty Publications

Molybdenum (VI) oxide reacts with molten LiCl-KCl eutectic at 450° to form MoO2CI2, which probably is present as an anion MoO2Cl4=, and pyromolybdate, Mo2O7=. Both of these species are electrochemically reduced to MoO2, which can be reoxidized to MoO2Cl2 by current reversal. A second reduction step, observed whether MoO3 or Mo2O72− is added to the melt, can be attributed to the reduction of MoO4−−, formed as a secondary reaction product in the first …

Electron Cyclotron Radiation Measurements To Determine Relative Electron Temperatures In A Low-Density Magnetic-Mirror Plasma System, Andrew L. Gardner Feb 1972

Electron Cyclotron Radiation Measurements To Determine Relative Electron Temperatures In A Low-Density Magnetic-Mirror Plasma System, Andrew L. Gardner

Faculty Publications

Measurements of the electron cyclotron radiation emitted from the plasma of the Alice system were made using a synchronous detection microwave radiometer in the range of 10.2 - 11.6 GHz. Both sidebands were used to sample radiation from two nested closed shells within the plasma. For a tenuous plasma this radiation is proportional to the product of the electron density and the electron temperature. Since measurements of the plasma density were available from other detectors, relative values of the electron temperature were obtained using the measured radiation intensity.

Electrochemical Reduction Of Chromate In The Presence Of Nickel Chloride In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen Jan 1970

Electrochemical Reduction Of Chromate In The Presence Of Nickel Chloride In Molten Lithium Chloride-Potassium Chloride Eutectic, Branko N. Popov, H. A. Laitinen

Faculty Publications

Chronopotentiometry of chromate in the presence of NiCl2 in molten LiCl-KCl eutectic reveals a diffusion controlled, three electron reduction step. In the presence of excess NiCl2, chromate is reduced at −0.35V vs. Pt(II)/Pt reference electrode and the electroactive species responsible for the chrono-potentiometric wave is estimated to have a diffusion coefficient of 1.06 · 10−5 cm2 sec−1 at 450°C. The stoichiometry of the reduction product depends mainly on the temperature at which the deposit is formed. At 500°C the deposit approaches the composition LiNi2CrO4. X-ray powder diffraction shows the deposit …

Ehv Ac Parallel Transmission Line Calculations With Application To The Near Resonance Problem, A. Norton Chaston May 1969

Ehv Ac Parallel Transmission Line Calculations With Application To The Near Resonance Problem, A. Norton Chaston

Faculty Publications

The use of shunt reactors with EHV transmission lines has introduced new problems, one of which is induction of high voltages on a de-energized circuit of two parallel lines. This paper presents the matrix equations used in developing a digital computer program which takes into account the effects of electromagnetic induction, electrostatic coupling, distributed lines, and transposition. The computer program may also be used to calculate the effects of shunt reactors, series capacitors, and loads. The equations can be adapted to a wide range of applications, although the examples for this paper have been limited to the near resonance problem …

Control System Digital Computer Transfer Function Simulation, Jens J. Jonson Mar 1962

Control System Digital Computer Transfer Function Simulation, Jens J. Jonson

Faculty Publications

The z transform of simple delay, integrator, leadlag, and differentiator networks are suggested as the basic building blocks for simulating complex control systems on a digital computer. The system parameters retain their explicit identity, thus facilitating analysis and design of the system as a function of specific parameter changes.
