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.

A total of 2519 annotated references to the unclassified report literature is presented. Subjects covered under heat transfer and fluid flow include radioinduced heating; boiling; boiler, evaporators, pump, and heat exchanger design; hydrodynamics; coolants and their properties; thermal and flow instrumentation; high temperature materials; thermal properties of materials; and thermal insulation. Subjects covered less completely include thermodynamics; aerodynamics; high temperature corrosion; corrosion specific to heat transfer systems; erosion; mass transfer; corrosion film formation and effects; coolant processing and radioactivity; radiation effects of heat transfer materials; and pertinent data of thermonuclear processes. Subject, report number availability, and author indexes are given.
