The "finger walker" is a fascinatingly complex device remotely operated to cling to the overhead tube sheet of a nuclear boiler. Personnel, operating the finger walker from a safe distance outside the boiler shell, "walk" the support structure over the surface of the tube sheet to enable inspection equipment mounted on the structure to ferret out suspicious tubes. 3, record 1, English, - finger%20walker

The anti-vibration bar of the prior art comprises a bar bent into a V-shaped configuration such that two legs are formed with an angle between. The V-shaped anti-vibration bars are inserted between successive columns of the steam generator flow tubes. ... These anti-vibration bars limit the excursion of vibrations, but since there is at least a clearance gap between the bar and every flow tube, a vibration and rattle occurs as the flow tube is driven by the motion of steam and water around it. The result is a fretting and corrosion of flow tubes which leads to subsequent failure and expensive repair. 3, record 2, English, - anti%2Dvibration%20bar

C'est le cas des tubes de générateurs de vapeur maintenus par les plaques entretoises et les barres anti-vibratoires, ainsi que des crayons des grappes de commande. Dans les conditions de fonctionnement de la centrale, ces composants entrent en vibration et sont soumis à des chocs et des frottements sur leurs appuis.

Natural convection, also called thermosyphoning, does not produce high flow. It cannot remove full power heat, but is adequate to remove decay heat. Natural convection occurs when cool D2O in the boiler tubes falls by gravity into the core. It displaces the hot, less dense D2O surrounding the fuel. The boilers cool the fluid pushed into them from the fuel channels, and it becomes more dense. The liquid that falls into the core expands on heating and becomes less dense. Thermosyphoning continues as long as the boilers continue to remove heat. 1, record 12, English, - natural%20convection

La convexion naturelle se produit lorsque le D2O froid dans les tubes des générateurs de vapeur tombe par gravité dans le coeur. Il déplace le D2O chaud et moins dense qui entoure le combustible. Les générateurs de vapeur refroidissent le fluide en provenance des canaux de combustible, et celui-ci devient plus dense.

Linear proton accelerators. The design principle applied in linear accelerators for protons was originated by Luis Alvarez at Berkeley in 1946. It is based on the formation of standing electromagnetic waves in a long cylindrical metal tank, or cavity, as it is sometimes called. In the design that has been adopted, the electric field is parallel to the axis of the tank. Most of these accelerators operate at frequencies of about 200 MHz. During the time required for a proton to traverse one of these tanks, the accelerating electric fields undergo many reversal of direction. In Alvarez' design, the decelerating effect of the field during the intervals when it opposes the motion of the particles is prevented by installing on the axis of the tank a number of "drift tubes" .... The electric field is zero inside the drift tubes, and if their lengths are properly chosen, the protons cross the gap between adjacent drift tubes when the direction of the field produces acceleration and are shielded by the drift tubes when the field in the tank would decelerate them. The length of the drift tubes are proportional to the speeds of the particles that pass through them. 1, record 20, English, - linear%20proton%20accelerator
