    Description: Seeded argon-hydrogen plasmas have been produced at Georgia Tech in order to experimentally measure composition, temperature, radiant heat output and opacity. The plasma, seeded with submicron tungsten particles, simulates the propellant of a gaseous core nuclear rocket. These measurements are needed to predict the dynamic behavior of the operating gas core reactor. The temperature range in which the seed has vaporized but the hydrogen itself has not yet become opaque is known as the seed-hydrogen opacity window. Preliminary opacity data in this temperature range will be presented.

    Description: The differential scattering parameter has been measured for 0.04-micron tungsten particles in hydrogen and nitrogen at temperatures to 1080 K. The differential scattering parameter has also been measured for 0.1 micron tungsten, three types of carbon particles, and fly ash in nitrogen at temperatures to 1000 K. The 0.04 micron tungsten shows a temperature dependent total scattering parameter varying from around 4000 sq cm per g at room temperature to 7000 sq cm per g at 1088 K. The temperatures over which data were obtained are not high enough to confirm the temperature dependence of the total scattering parameter of tungsten.

    Description: Experimental investigation and measurement of the radiant heat attenuation of an aerosol which may serve as a gas core nuclear-rocket propellant. The experiment uses a tungsten-hydrogen aerosol heated to temperatures as high as 2500 K under pressures up to 115 atmospheres. The hydrogen aerosol is produced by dispersion of submicron-sized particles of tungsten in hydrogen gas. A narrow beam of broad spectrum (visible and ultraviolet) light is passed through it with the attenuation being measured as a function of wavelength. Other aerosol characteristics examined include the nature and extent of chemical reactions between the seed material and the hydrogen and the degree of dispersion of the seed material obtained before and after heating. Chemical equilibrium calculations and vapor pressure data for the refractory metals indicate that tungsten is a prime candidate for the seed material in the gas core nuclear rocket.
