Method for the prediction of the installation aerodynamics of a propfan at subsonic speeds: User manual

This document is the user's guide for the method developed earlier for predicting the slipstream wing interaction at subsonic speeds. The analysis involves a subsonic panel code (HESS code) modified to handle the propeller onset flow. The propfan slipstream effects are superimposed on the normal flow boundary condition and are applied over the surface washed by the slipstream. The effects of the propeller slipstream are to increase the axial induced velocity, tangential velocity, and a total pressure rise in the wake of the propeller. Principles based on blade performance theory, momentum theory, and vortex theory were used to evaluate the slipstream effects. The code can be applied to any arbitrary three dimensional geometry, expressed in the form of HESS input format. The code can handle a propeller alone configuration or a propeller/nacelle/airframe configuration, operating up to high subcritical Mach numbers over a range of angles of attack. Inclusion of a viscous modelling is briefly outlined. Wind tunnel results/theory comparisons are included as examples for the application of the code to a generic supercritical wing/overwing Nacelle with a powered propfan. A sample input/output listing is provided.

Risk Analysis of Radiological Release from Pu-238 Targets During Manual Handling

Pu-238 Isotope Production Targets are routinely installed in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) core, transferred, and stored in the spent fuel canal. These evolutions involve manual handling and manipulation of the targets underwater using long handled tools. The ATR Safety Analysis Report (SAR) postulates a design basis accident which results in damage from manual manipulation of targets, and radiological consequences must be determined for receptors inside the reactor facility, as well as public receptors. This presentation presents the analysis used to determine the radiological consequences due to potential target damage in the ATR canal. The analysis considered radionuclide release fractions, damage ratios for handling evolutions, and entrainment of radionuclides in the canal water.

The Influence of Communication on the Complexity of Connected Lighting Systems

Experience in the Next Generation Lighting Systems (NGLS) ”Living Lab” at the Parsons School of Design, has clearly shown the impacts of communication on the configuration complexity of the connected lighting systems installed there. Since 2017, NGLS has invited manufacturers to submit connected lighting systems for assessment against a set of specifications. To date, 14 systems of wirelessly connected LED luminaires and controls have been installed in classrooms with existing lighting. In nine of the rooms, new LED linear pendants or recessed troffers replaced existing luminaires; in the other rooms, LED “kits” were retrofitted into the existing troffers. Eleven of the installations featured sensors integrated in the luminaires or retrofit kits; the others used ceiling mounted sensors. All systems provided wall control devices for manual operation. For half of the installations, the complete systems were furnished by single companies; for the other half, luminaires and controls were furnished by separate companies. A total of 18 different companies provided products, with four of these located outside the United States including, Korea, Poland, Germany, and the Netherlands. In addition, two different electrical contractors in New York City provided multiple installation teams totaling 10 individuals, none of whom were familiar with any of the systems.
