Evaluating electroformed nickel to stainless steel resistance spot welds at room and cryogenic temperatures
Lead plated aluminum ring provides a positive static seal for a large diameter pressure vessel for use in a hazardous environment at cryogenic temperatures with high pressure fluid flow. This design can be used in high and low pressure lines of any diameter for any fluid, with appropriate material modification.
Fluoroplastic material held captive between valve sealing surfaces of 16 to 125 rms microinches provides zero leakage to a high-pressure line at high cryogenic temperatures, when the plastic material is subjected to sufficient stress. This sealing technique makes unnecessary the use of superfinished valve sealing surfaces.
Test fixture has the capability of producing biaxial stress fields in test specimens to the point of failure. It determines biaxial stress by dividing the applied load by the net cross section. With modification it can evaluate materials, design concepts, and production hardware at cryogenic temperatures.
Fiber glass material, placed between polyurethane foam insulation and the outer surfaces of cryogenic vessels, retains its resilience at cryogenic temperatures and provides an expansion layer between the metal surfaces and the polyurethane foam, preventing cracking of the latter.
Improved instrumentation and preparation technique for high resolution electron microscopy of biological specimens at cryogenic temperatures
Cyclic incident radiation method for measuring thermal emittance and absorption properties of metals at cryogenic temperatures
Crack tolerance factors for titanium alloys including cryogenic temperatures, heat treatment, cold working, etc
Tensile fatigue behavior of liquid rocket engine metal alloy sheet construction materials at cryogenic temperatures
To provide insulation for tees, elbows, sumps, and valves that are used to pass or store fluids at cryogenic temperatures, individual parts are insulated in an environmentally controlled facility. It is desirable that such insulation be liquid oxygen compatible and be easily removable and reinstallable.
NERVA control drum actuator tests in cryogenic temperature, nuclear radiation, and vacuum environments
Solar absorptance, total hemispherical emittance and absorptance/emittance ratio for metals at cryogenic temperatures measured simultaneously with sinusoidally perturbed incident radiation
Radiation effects on NERVA out-of-core instrumentation, discussing cryogenic temperature measurements and transducer measuring pressure at gamma heating rates
Al alloys sheet, plate and weldments crack behavior and fracture toughness at cryogenic temperatures, using notched and surface flawed plane strain specimens
DC beam experiment for determining molecule sticking coefficients of gas beams incident on Ti, Ba and Sr gettering surfaces at cryogenic temperature
Mechanical stress applied to foam-coated aluminum alloy specimens maintained at cryogenic temperature simulates actual use conditions of the foam insulation. The testing reveals defects in the polyurethane foam or in the foam to metal bond.
